TF Universe - AutoLauncher

Motto: “If you’re not the first then you’re the last!”

Function: Shock Troop Guard

First Television Appearance: “White Lion, Run!”

Profile: A glory hog if there ever was one. As a bodyguard he will often neglect the safety of his commanding officers so that he can infiltrate the enemy base first and claim the most Maximal heads for himself. This usually results in punishment for disobeying direct orders. Autolauncher has a fierce rivalry with the Insectron Mantis who is the only other Transformer equal to his skill with disk weaponry. Though egotistical, Autolauncher is very loyal to his fellow Autorollers and treats them with more respect than any of the other Predacons.

Abilities: When transformed Autolauncher becomes a thundering ground assault vehicle. In robot mode he has a disk-launcher embedded in his chest. He can fire a wide variety of destructive disks. His favorite of which are the timer disks. Autolauncher can unleash a spinning disk into an enemy base and then trigger it to explode at his discretion.

Weaknesses: Autolauncher’s self-absorption and eagerness to be first tends to fowl up a well laid plan and only cause more damage than good.
