Winch


 * Winch is a Mini-Con neutral.

Winch Dr.h.c. loves a good challenge, and is constantly leading the Adventure Mini-Con Team on risky missions to sate his appetite for danger. His teammates Iceberg and Dune Runner are less enthusiastic about these missions, but Winch is certain that they'll change their minds eventually. He just has to make them face danger until they learn to like it.

Dreamwave Armada comic
After escaping from Cybertron, Winch and his team ended up on Earth's moon, where they lived in the Mini-Con Moonbase under the command of Dualor. When the base was eventually discovered by the Decepticons, Winch and Dune Runner hauled out satellite mines to defend their base. The Adventure Team later assaulted Megatron when he broke into the base.

The Mini-Cons were eventually forced to abandon the moonbase, and Winch and his team ended up working for the Autobots on Earth.
