Quote: “Don’t call me ‘Sh!tround’! I am NOT a triple-changer!”
TECH SPEC BIO:
Some might call Shortround obsessed because of the way he follows Angelfyre around, but most Decepticons just call him annoying. Still, he serves his purpose running supplies at speeds up to 250mph over land and sea, and whenever the Autobots show up he freaks out - filling the air with enough super heated plasma to allow other Decepticons to escape in the confusion. He may be a nerd, but at least he's a destructive nerd.
Abilities: Able to traverse both land and sea, Shortround provides rapid transport of supplies, weaponry, and ammunitions between base locations and the field. -His knowledge of the humans’ “World Wide Web” has come in handy as well, and has convinced the team that his expertise in the nuances of a black market portal called “eBay” is critical to the success of future missions. -Furthermore, although Shortround would never admit to it, he is in actuality a triple-changer, due to bashfulness (and some taunting and name-calling from other Decepticons at an early age), Shortround only uses his third mode against human targets who had ‘sniped’ him on cheap eBay gems… He gets the last laugh as the pathetic, unsuspecting humans are attacked as they ready to relieve themselves in their own homes!
Weaknesses: In the military, a "short round" is a live ammunition round that fell outside (i.e. short) of its target range. The connection appears to be to Shortround's habit of scattering gunfire everywhere when Autobots appear--most of the shots will almost inevitably be short rounds.
-Additional Info: Shortround's hobby is collecting toys. In fact, he's enough of a master of eBay and other auction sites to have picked up mint sets of G2 Stunticons and Protectobots--neither of which saw production outside of their prototypes.
