Ruination After a few months' combat, Megatron is forced to admit that the Predacons aren't getting anywhere in the battle against the Autobots, much because of their advantage of numbers, but perhaps also due to the Autobot vehicles being stronger and more durable than the Predacon animal forms. There is a solution to that problem though - the Predacons have six protoforms (unimprinted Transformer bodies) stashed away, and Megatron brings them to a military base to activate them and give them the forms of Earth vehicles, to boost the Predacon ranks with a new subgroup he calls the Decepticons.

Mega-Octane Mega-Octane is the cool, calculating leader of the Combiners. He is cruel and unfair, and uses his four subordinates as if they were his own limbs - he expects them to carry out his orders without question, and he has no tolerance with delays or mistakes. In missile trailer mode, Mega-Octane can launch missiles with a range of 6500 miles. Each missile carries enough explosives to turn everything within a 1 kilometer radius into a scorched wasteland. In robot mode, he carries a laser rifle. He can also transform into a combat station and perform maintenance on his teammates.

Movor Movor transforms into a combat space shuttle, and is capable of achieving planetary orbit under his own power. He carries detection equipment so he can search for Autobots from orbit, and is equipped with a powerful, long-range x-ray laser that allows him to attack them from that distance. Movor has excellent heat-resistance. Armorhide Armorhide specializes in desert warfare, and his body camouflage can fool even Optimus Prime's eyes. In tank mode, Armorhide can reach speeds of 45 mph and has a range of 600 miles. His turret-mounted gun shoots a shell up to a distance of 3.5 miles with an explosive force of 200 pounds of TNT. He can traverse any type of terrain, thanks to his cybertitanium-alloy caterpillar treads.

Rollbar Rollbar specializes in hand-to-hand combat. He is a skilled practiser of all types of ju-jutsu, and is an expert in Crystalocution - the Cybertronic martial art of defeating an opponent by attacking his metal fracture points. He's also very interested in Earthen martial arts. Rollbar prefers arctic environments, and likes fighting on rainy days. Ro-Tor Ro-Tor is responsible for reconnaissance. He isn't particularly fast in helicopter mode, but he has a tight turning radius and fantastic manoeuvrability. In addition he's almost soundless in flight, which allows him to sneak up on hapless Autobots and attack them from above. Ro-Tor likes to practice acrobatic flying in his free time.

...merge to form Ruination!

A giant robot created from the combination of the five DECEPTICON Combiners. Having no interest for anything but fighting, Ruination is so atrociously cruel that even Megatron fears him. He can change around his limbs at will, adapting instantly to various battle conditions with such forms as Flight Mission, which specializes in aerial combat, and Land Mission, which specializes in ground attacks. His two rifles, fusions of all the DECEPTICON Combiners' weapons, can destroy an entire city.
