Chainclaw (G1)


 * Chainclaw is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.

An intense hypochondriac, Chainclaw believes firmly that there is something very wrong with his systems, if not several things wrong, and nothing will convince him otherwise. He endlessly entertains visions of how he and his teammates are going to die in battle, every possibly mishap that's remotely plausible, even several implausible ones. Once he starts fighting, though, his anxiousness is channeled into a wild, animalistic fighting fury.

Generation 1

 * Chainclaw (Pretender Beast, 1988)


 * Chainclaw transforms into a gray and yellow robotic bear. He comes with an outer Pretender shell shaped like an armored organic brown bear, as opposed to the humanoid shells of most Pretenders. His shell can be fit around his robot body, completely hiding his true form.
