Television

  • In Transformers: Robots in Disguise, the Stunticons appeared in the setting of the 2015 animated television series. They were a group of Decepticons that looked to take over the roads of whatever world was on their path. This version consisted of Motormaster, Heatseeker, Wildbreak, Dragstrip and Slashmark. Prior to arriving on Earth, the Stunticons had committed many crimes, including somehow destroying an entire planetary system. Bumblebee and his team first encountered Heatseeker, who had claimed Grand Valley in the name of the Stunticons. When Sideswipe and Strongarm arrived and engaged him, they realized that there was a nearby waste disposal site that posed a danger. Though Heatseeker was ultimately defeated by the Autobots, he managed to secure a device for detecting Cybertronian technology which he returned to Motormaster with. Drag Strip and Wildbreak later borrowed the device, intending to use it to find some tech to impress Motormaster. This led them to one of Windblade's caches in the city of West Rock, however the Autobots also happened to visit the cache and the resulting battle meant that the two Stunticons had to flee empty-handed. Drag Strip managed to secure a Gravitic Adjuster, despite the Autobots' interference. Motormaster sent him to cause chaos with the device, however Drag Strip was eventually defeated by the Autobots while he was attacking a remote trooper station. All four of the Stunticon cars entered the Crown City Grand Prix, believing the winner's title of 'Ruler of the Roads' was meant literally. Though the intention was for the three others to help Drag Strip win by eliminating the other racers, ultimately the four Stunticons' efforts were foiled by the Autobots when some of Heatseeker's missiles ended up hitting them instead of the intended target. Disordered Personalities Motormaster was not enthusiastic about his subordinates' efforts to date in conquering Earth.
