Thrash Malto is one of the four main protagonists (alongside Morgan, Twitch and Robby Malto) of the Nickelodeon series Transformers: EarthSpark. He is one of the first-born two Terrans (Earth-born Transformers) and one of the Malto siblings.
Personality[]
Thrash is an impulsive and adventurous Transformer who is bonded to Mo. Thrash would do anything for her, and even his motorcycle-and-sidecar alternate mode was inspired by her old bike. While his connection is strongest with Mo, the four siblings' emotions are all connected through the mysterious cyber-sleeves.
While fun-loving and carefree may be positive traits much of the time, they are also Thrash's greatest flaws. He's easily bored, hates rules, and has a tendency to end up doing the opposite of what he's told. He means well, but it can leave his newfound family frustrated and picking up the pieces of the mess he's inadvertently created.
History[]
Thrash and Twitch were created in a cave on Earth when Robby and Mo Malto came into contact with the Emberstone. After an attack by Arachnamechs, the two kids smuggled the newborns home where they had their father Alex explain the history of the Transformers so Thrash and Twitch could overhear. While playing in the forest, Twitch gained an alternate mode, inspiring Thrash to go with Mo in search of something to take as his own alternate mode. Their search was initially fruitless and the pair were attacked by an Arachnamech. They, joined by Twitch and Robby, were rescued by Optimus Prime and Elita-1. However the Autobot leader's attempt to have the two Terrans protected by G.H.O.S.T. resulted in them being captured by Mandroid. Another rescue was mounted, during which Thrash scanned a motorcycle alternate mode in the process of protecting Robby, Mo and Alex. Following the battle, Dot Malto opted to take them under her protection, with Optimus assigning Bumblebee as their tutor.
When Bumblebee attempted to begin training the Terrans, Thrash asserted that they didn't need the scout's help, only to find he couldn't transform. Bee went on to participate in Family Game Night with the Terrans and their adopted family, which resulted in Twitch storming out and accidentally releasing a herd of cows. With Bee's help, Thrash was able to transform and with Mo, rounded up the cows. After Twitch and Thrash accidentally damaged the kitchen while fighting over a flag, Dot and Alex went over the house rules. Thrash chafed at being banned from the house, and after he and Mo were grounded for breaking the rules, he talked Mo into violating their grounding. The pair headed into town where they encountered Swindle, who talked them into helping him try to find Hardtop. Swindle inevitably showed his true colors, turning on Thrash and Mo when they refused to break into a G.H.O.S.T. truck, and once Dot and Bumblebee drove the Decepticon off, Thrash apologized for breaking the rules.
The Terrans and their kid partners paid a visit to Dot's ranger station work, but G.H.O.S.T. activity resulted in them having to try to keep a low profile, which ended up with them falling into a trap intended for Decepticons, at which point Thrash and Mo found out that Twitch and Robby had sneaked out the night before and encountered a G.H.O.S.T. patrol, which had caused their current situation. Optimus extracted them from the trap and hid them in his trailer in the G.H.O.S.T. base, only for them to venture out and become temporarily stuck in one of Megatron's training sims. They were able to complete the sim by working together, and Optimus later smuggled them out of the base. Thrash and Twitch listened to Alex's story about the dreaded Wakwak. The following day, Thrash constructed a makeshift guitar and Mo taught him how to play it. While the pair were demonstrating Thrash's newfound musical skill to Dot and Alex, Twitch introduced them to Wheeljack.
Powers and Abilities[]
Thrash is more physically oriented, with his shield and his throw-able wheel as his primary weapons. His side car converts into a protective shield in robot mode.
