The Ties That Bind Unaware of its history or its previous owners, the six Decepticons were disturbed by some of the many unsettling genetic experiments that the Grand Architect's associates had carried out, discovering deformed protoforms, a ceiling covered with brain modules, and organic flesh that had bled into the ship's fuel supply. The next morning, the group discovered an abandoned P-6 Worldsweeper vessel, an archaic warship that had at one point belonged to the mysterious Grand Architect and his associates. ![]() There, they found Fulcrum, a faulty K-Class Decepticon who had miraculously survived what should have been his fatal suicide bombing Rules of Disengagement after Spinister disabled his explosive charge, Who's Afraid of the DJD? the group (after deciding that he wasn't a zombie) opted to make him a member of the team, bringing him up to speed on recent events such as the war's end. When the Great War ended in early 2012, the Scavengers glumly assumed that the Autobots had won and chose not to return to Cybertron, instead stopping over on the barren planet Clemency to loot yet another abandoned battlefield. The ragtag team didn't amount to much, having largely fallen under the Decepticon command's radar, and spent most of their time hopping from one old battlefield to the next, scrounging energon and spare parts off fallen combatants.

Soon afterwards, the Foragers discovered Flywheels, who had thrown himself into space to escape the depredations of the Decepticon Justice Division. Just after the Surge, the duo, operating as the " Foragers", intercepted the lightly crewed vessel as it approached Garrus-9, locked the ship's pilot Crankcase in one of its cells, and rescued Flyhigh, who was now calling himself "Misfire" following the incident that got him incarcerated. The two of them had been friends with another Decepticon named Thundersaur, and when Thundersaur died, sometime around 2008, the two of them made it their mission to complete his last request: to rescue his old friend Flyhigh from a prison ship.

The Scavengers are not those Decepticons-according to Tarn's analysis of Banzai-Tron's files, they are in fact the six worst Decepticons in history.
