Origin

Rampage appeared in Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Movie. Rampage's alt-mode is a Bulldozer. He is one of the Decepticons known as the Constructicons and forms the left arm of the Ultracon Devastator.

Creation

Rampage was created for the 2009 Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Movie. He is based on the original Contructicon Bonecrusher (who was only in some Toy versions of Devastator and did not appear as a Constructicon in the Movie). He was created due to Bonecrusher being used a as a different character in the first film.

Tales of the Fallen

Rampage's body type was one of the early "construction drones" used to build Star Harvesters. One of them joined the Fallen's original Decepticons. He tried to battle the turncoat Jetfire and was quickly taken out.

Powers & Weaknesses

In vehicular mode, Rampage can exert a force of 800,000 psi at a speed of 30 mph. He can knock down all but the most reinforced structures. His thick titanium-steel armor makes him virtually invulnerable. While in his alt-mode he can use a short-range concussion bomb launcher. In robot mode he can combine his legs into a powerful jackhammer. He serves as the left arm when combined to form Devestator. Rampage's eagerness to cause destruction often results in the loss of property the Decepticons can use. If he is buried under rubble, it is difficult for him to dig out.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)

Two years after the events in Mission City, Soundwave intercepted the location of the AllSpark shard and the final resting place of Megatron, teams were dispatched to bring about their commander's resurrection. After Ravage retrieved the shard from Diego Garcia, Soundwave led Rampage, Long Haul, Mixmaster, Scalpel and a smaller Constructicon to the depths of the Laurentian Abyss. When Scalpel examined Megatron's corpse, he ordered the larger Constructicons to use the smaller drone for parts.

During Operation: Firestorm in Egypt, another Rampage body type became Devastator's right arm, attacking former Sector Seven agent Seymour Simmons, Leo Spitz, Skids and Mudflap. As Devastator smashed away at the Great Pyramid of Giza, Simmons called upon the United States Navy to fire upon the giant Decepticon. The U.S.S. Kidd fired her experimental rail gun, smashing one of his arms to pieces and destroying Devastator.

Elsewhere the other Rampage appeared during the battle in the Egyptian town to lure Sam Witwicky into a trap by releasing his captive parents, Ron and Judy. Sam was willing to trade the remains of the Matrix for his parents, but when he realized Bumblebee had arrived, he positioned Rampage for a suprise attack. After a long battle Bumblebee killed Rampage by ripping his arms off and over-extending his neck with a powerful kick.
