Surrender! The alliance was temporarily put on hold when a small subfaction of Decepticons led by Shockwave attacked the base. Like many of the other Decepticons, Octopunch had grown dissatisfied with Scorponok's leadership, and viewed a potential alliance as a weakness. When Optimus Prime surrendered his Autobots to the Decepticons under the pretenses of facilitating an alliance against the threat of Unicron, Octopunch helped place the Autobots into holding cells. Octopunch and the other Squad members ended up on Earth, and joined forces with Scorponok. The Primal Scream Vector Prime: In the Beginning Upon being shot, Primus awoke and unleashed a scream that eventually drew Unicron to the Transformers' homeworld. Blacking out, Octopunch made a final attempt to fire at Grimlock, which ended up ricocheting off the Dinobot's armor-plating and striking Primus right between the eyes. After the Dinobot commander headbutted Octopunch, shattering his faceplate, the Micromasters Stakeout and Red Hot tripped him over the edge of a railing, sending him crashing to the floor below. The Mayhems made a second attempt to destroy the Autobot Pretenders, but Octopunch found out that Grimlock was much harder to kill in real life than in a simulation. The most important thing Octopunch ever did was sadly also the stupidest. His fellow Mayhems eventually dragged him clear when the rest of the Survivors arrived and they retreated, but not before Bludgeon managed to execute the traitor Catilla with his blade. The resulting explosion took Octopunch out of the rest of the fight. Survival Run However, those self-samed fleshlings came to the rescue of their savior, driving a transport truck at full-speed into the Mayhems' backside, giving Carnivac a chance to scramble clear. Infuriated at seeing a fellow Decepticon surrender simply because of some fleshlings, Octopunch prepared to deliver the death-blow to Carnivac. After Carnivac caught Needlenose flat-footed, Octopunch forced him to disengage and leave his Pretender shell by threatening some nearby humans. The Hunting Party On Earth, the Mayhems caught up with Carnivac on the outskirts of Dallas, Texas, Way of the Warrior and their fight soon carried across the border into the Mexico deserts. For training purposes with their fellow recruits Needlenose and Spinister, they engaged in a solid light simulated combat session set in Slaughter City, and Octopunch managed to destroy the sim versions of Grimlock AND Fortress Maximus in the first few minutes (mmmmaybe it was still set on 'Easy' mode). Looking to recruit a new Mayhem Attack Squad to go after the traitorous former members, Carnivac and Catilla, Snarler hired Octopunch and his comrades Bludgeon and Stranglehold for the squad. It may seem like a small one, but get back to us on this after he shoots God in the face. His only weakness is his overconfidence in his abilities. Though often seen with fellow Mayhem Attack Squad members Bludgeon and Stranglehold, Octopunch is a fearsome warrior in his own right, either above or beneath the waves. While in his Pretender shell underwater, his strength expands several fold, and his electrically-charged, razor-tipped harpoon gun can stop anything in its tracks. The thought of bringing its hull beneath the waves with his slimy tentacles is what sustains him in his private moments.Īnd unlike other robots with similar functions, Octopunch is very good at what he does. There is no cruise ship so large that he can't find an appropriately-sized iceberg to push in its path. Though plundering the depths for forgotten treasure is well-suited to his expertise, his real love is the terror he can bring to those who breach his territory. There is no greater scourge of the seas than Octopunch. Just between you and me, it was a blast which ricocheted off Grimlock.
