History

A highly skilled team of professional mercenaries outfitted with high-tech equipment, the Demolition Team will take on any assignment if the price is right. Nothing is known of the various members or how they came together. The team has had many success but has met several defeats at the hands of the Predator, as well as the Blood Pack and Black Condor.

The Demolition Team was not long-lived, though they did inspire a knockoff villain group called the Toolbox. The team entered a lull after that; Steamroller was part of a government team during the Imperiex assault.

Infinite Crisis

Most of the team was killed by OMACs during the events of the OMAC Project, but Hardhat took part in the Battle of Metropolis. However, Hardhat fell out of reality some time after, and was found in Limbo later.^[1]

Footnotes

From Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki

When it absolutely, positively must be destroyed overnight.

Each member of the Demolition Team is an expert in engineering and construction, which makes them all the more effective at their actual function: turning things into piles of unidentifiable rubble. Allied with the Decepticons, these guys are sent in first to weaken Autobot fortifications, making it easier for the main army to swarm in.

The Demolition Team consists of...

• Broadside the tank.

• Sledge the payloader-excavator.

• Wideload the dump truck.

Toys

Classics

• Demolition Team (Mini-Con Team, 2006)

Trivia

• The instructions say, "Reverse order of instructions to convert back into beasts."
