Description
"We are all just food for rust."— Dead End's motto.
Here is another fan-art of the gloom ridden Dead End from the second and third seasons of The Transformers, this time depicting him in his Porsche 928 alt-mode. He was voiced by the late Philip L. Clarke, who also lent his voice to Auggie Cahnay, Victor Drath, that infamous racial stereotype Abdul Fakkadi, Primacron, Tantrum, Zeta Prime and Ozu's sensei, despite the fact that Dead End's alt-mode is an Porsche 928, L. Ckarke's portrayal of the character gives him an upper class British accent. In the show's Japanese dub as with most characters, he did not have a consistent voice actor, with him first being voiced by Masashi Ebara (who later went on to become the second Japanese voice of James the Red Engine from Thomas & Friends), Keiichi Nanba (in one episode only), Ken Shiroyama (also one episode only) and finally Tomomichi Nishimura.
Originally a ordinary maroon Porsche 928 , that Porsche was stolen as part of Megatron's goal to create new ground-based warriors who could out-drive and out-fight the Autobots, and it was eventually rebuilt into Dead End. Along with his fellow Stunticons, they combine to form Menasor, with Dead End serving as the left-arm of Menasor. His fate (shared with Sky Lynx, the other Stunticons, and various of characters who did not appear in the show's fourth and final season) in the American G1 cartoon continuity was left unknown due to him last being seen getting affected by the Hate Plague, though he likely got better. His original bio characterized him as a vain bot who cares enough about his appearance to shine and polish himself, but that was phased out infavor of his more familiar characterization of him being a gloomy depressed bot who sees no point in the Transformers' war and thinks that life is meaningless.
