Autocrusher (ใชใผใใฏใฉใใทใฃใผ ลtokurasshฤ, also spelled as Autocrasher[1]) is proof that age and experience don't always lead to wisdom. The oldest of the Autorollers, Autocrusher has fought the most battles and crushed the most enemies beneath his treads, and all with the same airtight strategy: Brute force. Autocrusher prefers to plow through his foes like a juggernaut and considering he's lived longer than most Predacons, one can't really argue against his game plan.
Like all the Autorollers, Autocrusher is rivals with an opposite among the Insectrons. In his case, it's Powerhug, another big bruiser who fancies himself as an immovable object. The two are always eager to match strength, though Autocrusher has a few more years on Powerhug as a bulldozing brute, which tends to give him the edge.[2]

While operating as a mercenary with the Autorollers, Autocrusher encountered the Insectrons and formed a rivalry with them. In particular, he came to hate Powerhug, another hulking brute, and the two became wrestling enemies. Danger! Scissor Boy
Autocrusher and the other Autorollers were aboard the Galvaburg II when Galvatron came to the planet Gaia. They assumed vehicular modes based on scans from the super-computer found in the planet's ruins. White Lion, Run! They were sent to construct a Predacon base near an isolated lake, secretly a trap to capture any unwary Maximal. The Lake Trap Autostinger and Autocrusher also did the grunt work for Dirge and Thrust clearing the area for a genuine Predacon base on the Southern continent. The Insect Corps Arrive
After the Combatrons failed to eliminate the Insectrons or get them to turn on the Maximals, Autostinger volunteered his team to take up the job. Megastorm accepted, and so the Autorollers rolled out. Autostinger and Autojetter went to Bigmos of the Insectrons to cash in on an old debt while Autolauncher and Autocrusher... went somewhere else? Autorollers Roll Out!
The Autorollers made another assault on the Insectrons, and captured an unwary Scissor Boy. In a complicated series of escapades, they also captured Tasmania Kid and tried to force the Maximals to lead them to the Insectrons' lair. Boy and Kid actually planned to lead them into an ambush by the Maximals, but the unknowing Drill Nuts and Powerhug started a landslide early to rescue their friends, and the diversion ended up leading the Autorollers in a circle back to the Galvaburg II. Megastorm was initially pleased by Autostinger and his cohorts' accomplishment, but then the united Maximals and Insectrons arrived at the ship while the Combatrons were out on patrol. Megastorm was forced to abandon his position and take the Galvaburg II to the air before being overrun by enemies. Danger! Scissor Boy
After their last few failures, Megastorm put the Autorollers back on fortress construction duty. Although Autocrusher appreciated the work, Autojetter felt slighted and wanted to show he was the most fearsome Predacon of all. Autostinger was moved by Autojetter's passion, and they came up with a plan to reroute the Angolmois Energy they were digging for to create an eruption that would destroy the Insectrons' lands in the name of the Predacons. A crazed Galvatron upset their plans, drilling into the Angolmois Energy pipelines to disturb the flow, and the Autorollers ended up joining forces with Scuba and the Maximals to bring down the rampaging Galvatron with an overdose of Angolmois Energy. After the battle, the Maximals and Autorollers parted peacefully. Galvatron Rampages
The Autorollers continued to work on Megastorm's behalf, devastating much of the South Continent in their efforts to build an Angolmois Energy-powered fortress. Predacon General Offensive!
Autocrusher and Autostinger accompanied Dirge and Thrust to the East Continent to establish a new front-line base. During construction, they spotted a signal beam firing up from the ground, and pinpointed the Maximal campsite. The Autorollers helped Dirge and Thrust secure the Maximal ship for Galvatron. Dirge and Thrust penetrated the ship while Autocrusher and Autostinger remained outside, ready to blow the fuel cache with their missiles if the Maximals tried anything. However, the comedy duo had difficulty keeping the manic and cheerful Jointrons in line, even at gunpoint. Inside the ship turned into an oil party while Dirge and Thrust waited for Diver to fix the radio Gimlet busted, so they could contact the Galvaburg II. DJ later brought oil outside to the growingly impatient Autocrusher and Autostinger, distracting them long enough for Lio Convoy and Bighorn to return from patrol and disable the Autorollers. Then Tripledacus happened and, well...running time! The Festive Jointrons
At one of their construction sites on the East Continent, Autocrusher and the Autorollers were joined by Starscream and BB, who intended to capture the Jointrons for study. Most of the Autorollers got involved in this side mission, but the Combatrons failed to separate the Jointrons for long. The might of Tripledacus soon drove off the Predacons and their fortress site was destroyed. Who Is the Leader!? While excavating some ancient ruins back on the North Continent, Autocrusher and his team found an old Copy Machine which they brought back to Galvatron. Hijinks ensued. The Black Lio Convoy
When Artemis and Moon hosted a debate over who the strongest warriors were among the Transformers, Galvatron compared his troops, the Autorollers, to the Maximal allies, the Insectrons. Who Is the Strongest Warrior!?
The Angolmois Energy on Gaia grew violent due to the approach of the artificial planet, Nemesis. This upset the fortress construction projects by Autocrusher and the Autorollers, making the ground highly unstable from geysers of Angolmois Energy. Enter Lio Junior Still, the Autorollers continued gathering massive amount of Angolmois Energy through their drilling sites. When a squad of Maximals raided one of the Angolmois Energy facilities, Galvatron set a trap for them. He had the Autorollers lure the Maximals inside the base and then sealed it shut. He then called down a massive blast from Nemesis in space to annihilate his foes. Gigastorm's Treachery
After Dirge and Thrust failed...spectacularly...at making a big name for themselves by assassinating Lio Convoy, Gigastorm had the Autorollers recover their unconscious bodies for an upgrade. The Lio Convoy Assassination Plot
When an alien device called the teleport gate crash-landed on Gaia, the Predacons quickly took control of it. Autocrusher and the other Autorollers were stationed on guard duty outside the ship, and were nearly crushed when the behemoth Majin Zarak arrived through the portal. He then joined Galvatron and the other Predacons on Majin Zarak's aircraft carrier mode, launching the Cyborg Beasts into battle. Autocrusher joined the battle shortly afterward, but was repelled by the Maximal forces. Lio Convoy in Imminent Danger!
As Nemesis approached the Earth, Autocrusher and the Autorollers continued building new fortresses to gather the planet's energy for the Predacons. Knock Out Nemesis After Hellscream and Max-B located the Maximals' missile base in the Rock Mountains, Galvatron dispatched the Autorollers to help destroy the project. They were opposed by the Jointrons and Tripledacus. Fly Out! Planet Gaia
Autocrusher and the Autorollers were manning the Predacon engineering fortresses on Gaia when the artificial planet Nemesis began actively siphoning the world's energy into itself. Breaking into Nemesis
Autocrasher once served as Galvatron's bodyguard. Beast Wars Sourcebook #1
Autocrasher was seen during an Angolmois-induced riot on Cybertron, following the Tako Tank as it broke down a wall. The Ascending #4
