Rampage (G1)


 * Rampage is a Decepticon Predacon in the Generation 1 continuity family.



Rampage is a bundle of overenergetic, destructive fury. He has difficulty thinking or talking for more than a short time without bursting into a wild rage and smashing everything around him. The blatant trail of wreckage makes it easy to follow him anywhere. The only thing that really calms him down is television. Generally the more mindless and stupid the programming, the more enraptured and entranced he becomes. Rampage can watch music videos for hours and hours without twitching a circuit.

He and his fellow Predacons can combine to form Predaking.

Marvel Comics continuity
Rampage and the Predacons operated as mercenary hunters on Cybertron, willing to track and kill anyone for the right price, even Megatron. Shockwave hired them to eliminate Megatron for him, and their second attempt proved successful enough to get him out of the way for a while. The Predacons moved in full-time with the Decepticons of Earth after that, and Rampage later had a truly spectacular fight with Scorponok's animal flunky Apeface during the first Decepticon Civil War -- after he ripped off Apeface's arm and spat it out, the Horrorcon then proceeded to beat the Predacon with it severely. Rampage shook the stars out of his optic sensors long enough to get blown to smithereens along with his teammates by Starscream.

Animated continuity

 * Voice actor: Laurie Faso (US), (Japan)

The Predacons landed on Jupiter's moon of Io to attack the Autobot team carrying Metroplex's transformation cog. Rampage transformed into beast mode and charged at EDC Commander Marissa Faireborne, but she easily leapt to avoid him, causing the Decepticon to stop in his tracks and accidentally get rammed in the flank by Tantrum. Rampage then joined the other Predacons in forming Predaking, who was promptly defeated by Sky Lynx.

Dreamwave comics continuity
Rampage and his fellow Predacons were apparently Decepticon warlords at some point in the past. Exactly when is unclear, but they were exiled from Cybertron and eventually wound up on Planet Beest. The Predacons' higher brain functions degraded, and they became feral, wandering bestially on the planet until Megatron found them, tamed them, and taught them to beg for robo-kibble. Rampage and the others then helped him overcome Shockwave and Starscream to reclaim Megatron's army for him.

IDW comics continuity
As a crewman aboard the Thanatos, Rampage was dispatched to Cybertron to destroy the newly reactivated Thunderwing (and, if necessary, Cybertron). Rampage, at a weapons station, canceled the bombardment on Razorclaw's order with one second remaining after Optimus Prime neutralized Thunderwing.

Beast Wars: The Gathering


On Cybertron, a group of five symbols appeared on the walls of a room containing a transwarp shunt device. The five symbols seemed to represent a lion, a bird, a bull, a rhinoceros, and another feline of some variety.

Generation 1

 * Rampage (1986, 2004)
 * Japanese ID number: D-74


 * Rampage transforms into a orange, black and red robotic tiger. His beast mode legs and head have varying degrees of articulation (though the latter has more to do with his transformation). As was the norm for toys made during the period, he has limited articulation in robot mode. Rampage is armed with a black laser rifle and a gold sword.


 * Normally, Rampage forms the right arm of Predaking, but can also be used as the combiner's left arm (which was the configuration seen for Predaking's comic and animation models).


 * As with the rest of the Predacons, the initial release of Rampage had die cast metal parts which were later replaced by plastic. In Japan, he was available individually or as part of a gift set with the rest of the Predacons.


 * Rampage was part of Takara's 2004 reissue giftset of the Predacons.
