Transformers Tech Specs


In "Transformers: The Movie" and subsequent episodes of the TV cartoon, Gnaw was never given that name. The Sharkticons were simply an army of identical walking piranha-like robotic sea monsters that served the Quintessons and worked as mindless but obedient foot soldiers. Frankly, I can't understand where a "Sharkticon" would fit into the normal Decepticon army to begin with, so this was probably the best possible solution for an awkward toy-marketing problem.
