Animated series

The second Polarclaw appeared in Robots in Disguise, where it was his robot mode that was polar bear-themed rather than his beast mode. A crime boss over Cybertron's northern most region, he was known for planning far ahead in order to accommodate his hibernation periods. He was imprisoned aboard the Alchemor and later escaped after it crashed on Earth, and was eventually confronted by Optimus Prime's team of Autobots. Though his snow cat alternate mode and great strength proved challenging, he was eventually defeated by teh sueprior cunning of his foes and laid low by a punch from Optimus.
