Hotwire

Hotwire is a Decepticon who appears in Transformers: Universe.

Biography
Hotwire shouldn't be taken at face value... Sure, he's a money hungry arms dealer with a list of black-market contacts that would impress even Swindle, but don't think for a moment he isn't loyal to the Decepticon cause. He's dedicated to his family, just as much as his bottom line.

History
Hotwire was part of the crew of the Leviathan when it shot down the Autobot ship Arclight over Central City. He and the other Decepticons on board went on to engage in a number of battles against the surviving Autobots in a number of places around the world.
