Description

And here we have the Wreckers, a less well-known team of Transformers, but still fairly popular.

For those unaware; in the UK Marvel Comics, the Wreckers were an elite group of Autobots, roughly equivalent to Black Ops. The assortment consisted mostly of characters that hadn't appeared in the TV series; the Jumpstarters Topspin and Twin Twist, Roadbuster, Whirl, and Autobot Triple-Changers Springer, Broadside and Sandstorm. Joining them were comic-exclusive characters Impactor and Rack 'n Ruin, while Ultra Magnus was intended to command them.

These guys maintained a level of popularity over the years, and the team made their debut appearance in the US with Dreamwave's run. The second volume for War Within featured all of the toy-based Wreckers excepting Magnus, while the second volume for G1 proper featured all eight toy-based Wreckers (though the Triple-Changers never had screen time with their fellows and Sandstorm may or may not have bought the farm). They've since reappeared in IDW as part of the 'Stormbringer' arc, with Springer in command, Magnus not taking part, and Scoop joining the team.

Naturally, I wanted to take a stab at them for my own storyline...
