Shatter is a Decepticon spy tasked with hunting down and killing Autobots and is one of the main antagonists of Bumblebee.
History[]
Shatter was among the Decepticons under the command of Shockwave and Soundwave. After Optimus Prime was attacked by Ravage, Shatter and the other Decepticons closed in to attack the Autobot leader.
Shatter was seen interrogating Cliffjumper with Dropkick on one of Saturn's moons. Though the Autobot refused to co-operate, they received a signal from Autobot B-127 on Earth, prompting the pair to head for the planet but not before Shatter decided to grant Cliffjumper an "honorable death" by having Dropkick bisect him.
Arriving near a trailer park, Shatter acquired a muscle car alternate mode. The two then headed to the West Coast in the direction of B-127's signal, with Shatter picking up a jet alt mode whilst driving through Texas. They were intercepted by Jack Burns and Sector Seven. Rather than let Dropkick kill the humans, Shatter claimed to be a "Decepticon peacekeeping patrol" pursuing the "dangerous escaped criminal" B-127. The Decepticons were escorted to a Sector Seven outpost and given limited access to their satellites.
A brief Energon surge in California attracted the Decepticons' attention, and they accompanied Sector Seven in capturing B-127, now calling himself "Bumblebee". As Dropkick tortured Bumblebee to find out Prime's location, he accidentally triggered a video message from the Autobot leader revealing his plans to retreat to Earth. Upon seeing this, Shatter resolved to inform their comrades of this information via a radio tower at a nearby harbour. Once Powell overheard their conversation and informed Burns, Shatter thanked the human for his cooperation before letting Dropkick kill him. From there, they departed and left the critically injured Bumblebee for dead.
While Shatter transmitted the message to Cybertron, Bumblebee appeared and opened fire on the radio tower, provoking Dropkick to engage him. While Bumblebee battled and destroyed Dropkick, the Autobot's human friend, Charlie, sneaked towards the radio tower when Burns appeared in a helicopter attempting to take Shatter down. When Charlie managed to disable the tower, Shatter angrilly attempted to kill Bumblebee and Charlie. Before she could finish off Bumblebee, he blew a hole in the wall of the dock, flooding the area and causing the giant cargo ship docked there to crash into them. Shatter was destroyed, exploding as the ship crushed her against the dock.
Trivia[]
- Shatter, along with Dropkick is a Triple Changer, meaning that she can have two vehicle modes. These are a muscle car, and a Harrier jet.
