Computron (SG)


 * Computron is an evil Autobot combiner from the "Shattered Glass" universe.

Computron is the combined form of the evil Technobots, that once was a cruel genius formed by the union of the brilliant intellects of his components. He eventually further developed his own independent and egotistical mind free of the Technobots' individual shortcomings, causing the Technobots to become addicted to combining into him whenever possible.

Then one day Computron's ego drove him to try to imbue intelligence into the dimwitted Grimlock. The operation backfired and corrupted Computron's processors, causing him to become mentally deficient and the Technobots' neuroses to go from being suppressed to worse than when they are apart. However, Computron's ego remained unaffected, and he continues to both act as if he were still intelligent and compel the Technobots' addiction to forming him, often with disastrous results.

Optimus Prime enjoys the now dimwittedly brutish Computron too much to give in to the Technobots' demands for repairs.

Computron is comprised of:
 * Scattorshot (leader)
 * Afterburner
 * Lightspeed
 * Nosecone
 * Strafe

Trivia

 * The color scheme of Shattered Glass Computron is clearly based on his counterpart's nemesis, Abominus.
 * Computron's attempt to give Grimlock intelligence is a reversal of the (non-canonical here) Generation 1 episode "Grimlock's New Brain", where Grimlock sacrificed his newfound intelligence to give the Technobots intelligence.
