Not only do they manage to always escape from the Autobots and nearly destroy them a few times, but they can work their combine form ''far better'' than Bee's team can. And according to Optimus, said combined form, Menosaur, has destroyed an ''entire planetary system''.

* ClippedWingAngel: While the combined Menasor might be more powerful, he's also clumsy, uncoordinated, and inefficient when wielding weapons, given how he got his sword stuck in the ground for an embarrassingly long time. His mental state in this form also goes down, with his head occasionally twitching in a spastic manner and Menasor having to shout orders to his own Stunticon body parts to quit trying to fight ''him'' and focus on fighting Ultra Bee.

* BadassOnPaper: Optimus stated that Menasor destroyed an entirely planetary system. And as Optimus isn't the type to lie or exaggerate, the audience knows Menasor did accomplish this monumental task ''somehow'', despite not seeing it for themselves. However, what the audience does see is a laughably uncoordinated Decepticon combiner who ultimately proves himself to be quite the loser as he gets beaten in the end by Ultra Bee, someone with even less combining experience and was ''taking on Menasor under combat conditions for the first time''.

* BadassBaritone: Courtesy of Travis Willingham.
* BigBadassRig: He transforms into a truck with a trailer attached, not dissimilar to his G1 incarnation.
* BigBadEnsemble: With Soundwave and Steeljaw in the ''Combiner Force'' season, though their agendas are entirely separate.
** BigBadWannabe: Ultimately, his plan is to seize control of Earth, or at least Earth's roads... that's about it.
* CoolSword: His signature weapon since G1.
* CombiningMecha: As Menasor, he forms the torso and head.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: For the ''Combiner Force'' season. He and his crew are [[spoiler: finally beaten and captured by Team Bumblebee just a little after mid-season]] and it's revealed that there's someone or something else on Cybertron's that's a GreaterScopeVillain compared to Motormaster and his Stunticons.
* EvilCounterpart: To Optimus Prime.
* EvilSoundsDeep: While not to the extent of his G1 counterpart, it's still enough to make it count.
* FaceFramedInShadow: Near the end of ''King of the Hill (Part 2)'' we see his silhouette with red lights all over him. In ''The Great Divide'', we see him in his vehicle form with blue lights.
* HumbleGoal: Compared to the other Decepticon leaders out there, his goal isn't to terraform Earth, destroy it, transform it into a Decepticon utopia at the expense of the planet's natives, or anything of the sort. He only states that he wants to control Earth's roads.
* InSeriesNickname: The other Stunticons call him either "Chief" or "Boss."
* LargeAndInCharge: Being a truck with trailer (compared to his minions, who turn into sports cars and [=SUVs=]), he towers over the other Stunticons.

* CoolCar: Transforms into a yellow angular sports car instead of an F1 racecar like in G1.

* SmarterThanYouLook: Don't let his bulky appearance in both of his forms fool you: he is pretty clever for a high-speeding Stunticon, where initially thought to be a DumbMuscle, only to be proven wrong. Bumblebee even lampshades this.

* CombiningMecha: Heatseeker and Slashmark combine into a larger robot. Slashmark appears to be the bottom half of the merged form. The minute he is a part of Menasor, he is the right leg.
* CoolCar: Transforms into an SUV. See PaletteSwap for more details.
* CompositeCharacter: Has G1 Breakdown's color scheme, but complete with G1 Dead End's snarky persona.
* DeadpanSnarker[=/=]{{Jerkass}}: Slashmark constantly throws insults at both allies and foes. Semi-justified because, according to his bio, it is the only way to keep his fellow Stunticons from going out of line.
* [[EnergyWeapon Energy]] RingsOfDeath: These are his weapons, which glow sickly green when activated and he demonstrates by scratching huge trail marks on the road. This even applies to his tires.
* TheEvilGenius: He's arguably one of the smarter Stunticons. Considering that they're a bunch of speed freak thugs, it's not hard to see why.
* InsufferableGenius: He has a snobby air to him and often refers to his teammates as buffoons.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Insults Ultra Bee for being an inexperienced Combiner, despite the fact that he's only slightly more coordinated himself.

* IncomingHam:
--> '''Menasor''': Welcome to the ''end of the road!'' Courtesy of '''MENASOR!'''
* InformedAbility: Was stated by Optimus Prime to have destroyed an entire planetary system. However, given how much trouble Menasor has just keeping his own body in control and [[spoiler: ultimately losing to an Autobot combiner who had significantly less combining experience]], Menasor's ability to devastate a whole planet is very much called into question, unless of course that planetary system was full of beings who were significantly weaker and less advanced than Cybertronians.
* NoIndoorVoice: Virtually every line of Menasor's is shouted.
* RoboticPsychopath: He has a tendency to talk to himself and suffers from occasional glitches, as a result of the Stunticons' conflicting thoughts.
* TalkingToThemself: The Bee Team observes that, although Menasor has his own persona, he talks to his limbs the same names as the components that form the Stunticon gestalt.
