Totaliser Prizes


Each Total Spark Crystal contains a chance to win:
 

Scattershot & Leozack
The two characters joining the Earth Wars at the end of this saga will be loud and crass Scattershot and overzealous Leozack.

Glitch & Gatorface
Strange things happen around Glitch. On the surface, he's a regular all-terrain C.O.M.B.A.T. 'bot, and as sure a shot as you could hope to find in sniper rifle mode; but probability seems to go haywire when Glitch is in the field, and the impossible become possible, the unlikely likely. The only one oblivious to this odds-upending talent is Glitch himself.

In the wholesale carnage stakes, Gatorface is in a class of a select savage few, if not his own. All he really knows is how to let rip (literally) and he specializes in picking off already wounded and semi-helpless Autobots. What's worse, he likes to play with his 'food', delighting in extending his victims' last agonized moments. Pure predator, Gatorface has few friends and fewer enemies.
