"The search often begins within yourself."
Vice Grip is one of Megatron's most loyal and dependable troops.  He understands the value of a mission and does his utmost to complete it successfully.  This drive, coupled by his extraordinary tracking abilities, is well received by the Predacon leader.  His comrades have deep respect for him and often look to him for guidance and advice.  In insect mode, his giant rear pincers can easily crush unsuspecting Maximals and then finish them off with a high voltage electric surge.  In robot mode, the pincers convert to a hand held plus weapon that discharges an explosive ball of electricity capable of shorting out all Maximals in a seventy meter radius.
