rdfs:comment
  • On Cybertron, Grapple's building designs are considered horrific works of art. He always had a twisted design sensibility, and the needs of war have finally given him a creative outlet for his dark visions. He takes enormous pride in what he does and strives for frightening effectiveness in all his creations. Grapple's extreme artistic self-importance often results in arrogance and haughtiness, diminishing his popularity with the other Autobots. He is very adept in the use of his vehicle mode, however, whether using it to built or destroy.

  • On Cybertron, Grapple's building designs are considered horrific works of art. He always had a twisted design sensibility, and the needs of war have finally given him a creative outlet for his dark visions. He takes enormous pride in what he does and strives for frightening effectiveness in all his creations. His problem is that he cares more for the fearsome look of his defensive installations than for their structural integrity; more than once one of his constructions has collapsed in the course of battle, killing the Autobot soldiers inside. Grapple shrugs off these failures as the cost of art and war. In vehicular mode, Grapple can lift up to 35 tons and position massive objects with uncanny precision and grace. In robot mode, he uses a high temperature arc-welder rifle that shoots a stream of concentrated infrared energy as it slices through and/or fuses its targets. He can launch explosive rockets a distance of 4.5 miles from the hand socket in each of his wrists. Grapple's extreme artistic self-importance often results in arrogance and haughtiness, diminishing his popularity with the other Autobots. He is very adept in the use of his vehicle mode, however, whether using it to built or destroy.
