Profile:
The fact that Roadbuster has made himself into a walking weapons arsenal is a testament to his only true passion: combat. He’s bored out of his mind if he’s not in the middle of a heated firefight, so much so that he becomes uncharacteristically quiet and withdrawn if he hasn’t fought in a while. Roadbuster only feels alive when he’s heading to a battle, fighting on the battlefield or just stepping away from another victory. He starts to perk up immediately when planning for a mission and then truly starts to shine once the bullets and plasma blasts start flying. He’s fearless and unconventional fighter who won’t hesitate to launch a surprise attack on unsuspecting Decepticons, just to pass the time. Roadbuster’s intense determination and charismatic quips during battle inspire other Autobots; he’s always there to motivate the troops when they need it most. He’s such a natural leader and fighter that some Autobots are concerned about what he’ll do after the war is finally over. They wonder, secretly, if death in battle might be the only thing that saves Roadbuster from a melancholy lifetime of looking back at his glory days.

Weapons and Abilities:
Roadbuster has above-average intelligence, and great physical strength and endurance. He’s an excellent solider and field commander. In his vehicle mode, he can traverse the roughest terrain at speeds up to 65 mph, with range of 600 miles. He’s armed with a powerful laser-targeted cannon in this mode as well as a series of explosive and smoke canisters (all useable in his robot mode). As a robot, he has a shoulder-mounted shrapnel rocket launcher that is self-targeting and has a 360 degree attack range. He’s also armed with a rapid-fire automatic rifle that fires armor-piercing rounds.

Weaknesses:
Subject is physically very powerful, but he is prone to wearing down his weapons through overuse. His desire for combat sometimes causes him jump into a battle before thinking through the consequences.
