Long ago, he apparently had a nasty experience with the Autorollers, and is hoping to settle the score. His special skill is the Hug Hell Wheel, in which he rolls into a ball and delivers a body blow. In beast mode, his fangs and tail become alloy cutters. His crushing Power Hug pinions his enemies.

Marvel's Transformers Universe Profile

Profile: Powerhug is a very straightforward Maximal who has nothing to hide. He always speaks the truth, even if it hurts. He talks in a Kyushu dialect for some unknown reason. It rarely bothers his teammates. Powerhug tends to be a bit clumsy at times but never enough to endanger the other Insectrons. He supposedly has a score to settle with the Autorollers after excepting a defeat in battle many years ago.

Abilities: In pill bug mode Powerhug has a nearly impenetrable shell which can absorb virtually any attack. His special attack is the "Hug Hell Wheel" where he rolls into a ball and hurls himself at his enemies. In robot mode he uses his "Power Hug Pinions" to crush any Predacon on the battlefield.

Weaknesses: The "Hug Hell Wheel" is his favorite attack but it comes with one drawback, it doesn't work very well downhill. If he performs this attack on a steep downgrade he tends to roll out of control and helpless.
