Hauler

• Name: Hauler
• Faction: Autobot
• Species: Transformer
• Function: Transport/Resource Exploration
• Division: Science
• Sub-Group:
• Type: FC

Back on Cybertron, Hauler was a Constructicon involved in the building of the Crystal City. When his teammates were reprogrammed as Decepticons, Hauler turned to the Autobots, joining their ranks. This choice would eventually put him on board the Ark for its doomed voyage that ended on Earth. When he awoke with the rest of the crew in 1984, he resumed his primary function: the discovery and procurement of energy sources. This task sends him far and wide across the planet, and his tendency towards capricious self-expression often results in him coming back with different colors and parts.

His crane mode can lift 60 tons, and in robot mode, he can launch his hands from their wrist-sockets. The hands can fly through the air under his remote-control guidance, allowing him to perform tasks normally beyond his reach.

History

Canonical/Pre-MUX/Theme History:

Back on Cybertron, Hauler was a Constructicon involved in the building of the Crystal City. When his teammates were reprogrammed as Decepticons, Hauler turned to the Autobots, joining their ranks. This choice would eventually put him on board the Ark for its doomed voyage that ended on Earth. When he awoke with the rest of the crew in 1984, he resumed his primary function: the discovery and procurement of energy sources.

Hauler joined Ratchet and Cliffjumper in recovering Hound from the bottom of a ravine. At the time he was yellow, which made him look a lot like Grapple.

MUX History:

Hauler is yet to have shown up on the MUX, but is ICly out there, somewhere, searching for resources the Autobot can use...

OOC Notes

Hauler's toy is called LoadHauler/RoadHauler, presumably for copyright reasons, but we're sticking to the name used in his only canon appearance.
