Cliffjumper (SG)

Cliffjumper is an evilAutobotfrom theShattered Glasscontinuity family.

And what happened to the brains I was supposed to see this week?!

CliffjumperisOptimus Prime's crack shot sniper, and possibly his most trusted friend and ally. In fact, he's a friendly and trusting individual in general provided you're not one of his enemies. (In which case he'll enjoy seeing you thrown into thesmelting pool.) Unfortunately, he also tends to frequently end up being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
