Buzzclaw is one of the few surviving members of the Insecticons in his time. A former pit-fighter from Polyhex, he prefers hand-to-hand --or, more accurately, terrible-foreclaw-to-sternum-- combat over using ranged weapons. He just likes killing, and killing up-close. He's spent a lot of time working on that, studying many forms of unarmed combat. He has teamed up with the rogue Deathsaurus, who is attempting to unlock the Insecticons' diluted clone-making abilities in order to bring the Decepticons back to the mighty force they once were.
