After evading capture by Lockdown and Prowl on Earth's moon, Starscream dispatched Clones #3370318 and #2716057 to Earth. Unaware of the existence of the clones and merely seeking to capture Starscream, Prowl and Lockdown tracked down Clone #3370318, believing him to be the genuine article. Both were a little taken aback by how chicken "Starscream" was being, but that didn't stop Prowl from using his fancy new mod to take the fleeing jet out of the air. The clone begged and pleaded with his captors not to be given to Megatron, who had ordered a bounty on Starscream's head. As Prowl explained he intended to hand "Starscream" over to the Elite Guard, Lockdown double-crossed his new partner. After tying Prowl up, Lockdown departed with the clone, dragging him along the asphalt behind him as he sped off to met with Megatron and claim the bounty.
Megatron, too, was taken in by the clone, and was about to make an example of him when the Autobots arrived with Clone #2716057, whom they had managed to capture in the meantime, prompting a Mexican standoff. Starscream then revealed (via communicator) that both clones had bombs implanted in their spark chambers and had been used as bait to draw all of his enemies to one spot. As Lockdown and the Decepticons made a break for it, Prowl welded his borrowed mods to the pair and launched them into the sky, where they exploded. A Fistful of Energon
The Cool comic
Clone #3370318 was quickly defeated in battle by Lockdown and Prowl (wearing a set of power-boosting armor). Badly injured, Lockdown remarked that the only thing keeping him from "wearing out the merchandise" even more was the fact that it would drop in value. Lockdown then hauled the clone off to a warehouse to be sold to Megatron. Clone #3370318 was then joined by Clone #2716057, who had just been brought in by the Autobots. Both clones were rigged to explode by the real Starscream, but were quickly launched into the sky by Prowl, where they detonated harmlessly. The Cool Episode 6
Notes
- Unidentified in his original appearance, Clone #3370318 was later "named" (so to speak) by The AllSpark Almanac.
- The numerical string that serves as this clone's name is taken from Futurama, where it is the serial number of the robot Flexo. This goes hand-in-hand with Clone #2716057's name, which is derived from the serial number of Flexo's identical twin Bender.
