As a strong defender of the Maximal cause, this former attack specialist stationed in sector 17 of the Mirtonian constellation has returned to Cybertron. Reformatted into the charismatic Dinobot platoon commander, T-Wrecks, his fellow Maximals bestowed him the nickname "Big Rex" as a testament to his powerhouse presence on the battlefield.
Serrated steel jaws can snap most materials in two, acidic breath instantly corrodes most alloys and dual hip-mounted launchers fire air-imploding projectiles. T-Wrecks is depicted as standing 14 feet tall.

The story of the Dinobots continued in Wreckers: Finale Part II by Fun Publications. Arriving on Cybertron during a Quintesson invasion the Dinobots take the eastern flank of the defense, driving the Quintessons back, which is reported to Cheetor by Skydive. During the battle T-Wrecks finds the fact that the other Dinobots are keeping score of their kills a bit tacky. Near the end of the battle Triceradon vanished (teleported away by Unicron), which T-Wrecks reports to Snarl and Longhorn, thinking it might be the effect of some new Quintesson weapon.[4]
Toys
- Beast Machines Ultra T-Wrecks (2001)
- The T-Wrecks toy was part of the Dinobots faction of Beast Machines which featured no new molds but did release some molds previously unseen in America. He was a recolor of Beast Wars Megatron. [5]
- While sharing a mold with Beast Wars Megatron, T-Wrecks did however vary from Megatron in two district ways in how he was depicted.[6] First T-Wrecks did have the “bone helmet” that was omitted in Beast Wars and second T-Wrecks’ tail did not detach from his arm in robot mode and was not a missile launcher.
