Scarem
Scarem is the name of a fictional character from the Beast Wars Transformers toy line.
Beast Wars Scarem toy | |
| Predacon | |
|---|---|
| Sub-group | Basic Beasts, Transmetal 2 |
| Function | Ground Commando |
| Rank | 2.9 |
| Alternate Modes | Giant mechanical beetle |
| Series | Beast Wars |
Scarem tech specs say he resulted from Megatron's cloning experiments. His only appearance in fiction, however, contradicts this, saying he was a Maximal turned into a Predacon by Magamtron. He is aggressive and dangerous.[2]
Animated series
Scarem's stasis pod was presumably among those who were launched into orbit around prehistoric Earth in the Beast Wars series pilot.
IDW Publishing
Scarem finally made his first official appearance in the 2006 IDW Beast Wars comic, where it was revealed he was a Maximal protoform from the Axalon who was infected with a Predacon shell program by Magmatron.
Scarem had a biography printed in the Beast Wars Sourcebook by IDW Publishing.[3]
