Spoilsport
From Transformers Wiki
- Spoilsport is a Nebulan Targetmaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Spoilsport has a rather appropriate moniker, given that he spoils the fun of his partner Sureshot by being an equally good marksman. In a contest between an intelligent gun and an intelligent gunner, the gun gets a majority vote. His partner resents his interference, and in his turn, the Nebulan resents Sureshot for his lack of appreciation. It can't help that Sureshot is a jerk, of course, and presumably he never calls.

Spoilsport was part of Gort's group of rebel Nebulans. When Targetmaster technology was stolen from the Decepticons, Peacemaker chose to be paired with Sureshot. Shortly after the process was completed, he boasted to the Autobot leader Optimus Prime that their wasn't a target he couldn't hit (only for Pinpointer to outboast him). During the later battle against the Decepticons, Sureshot instructed him to blast the enemy, and he complied with pleasure. The Rebirth, Part 2 Like the rest of the Nebulan rebels, he accompanied the Autobots back to Cybertron and helped to defeat the Decepticons and bring about a new Golden Age on the planet.

Spoilsport and his five friends were refugees, having fled their home planet of Master when Scorponok and the Decepticons began an all-out siege on the world. They were being chased through space in their starship by the Decepticons when they came across the Battleship Maximus. Fortress gave them safe haven aboard his starship, and the Master citizens attempted to show their gratitude by removing the deadly plasma energy bombs Fortress was trying to dispose of. Their efforts came too late, however, as the plasma energy bombs exploded aboard their ship in space, bathing everyone nearby with energy. Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 1)
Spoilsport survived the explosion, and in fact underwent a miraculous transformation. He and two of his fellow refugees were each now binary bonded to one of the Autobot warriors who had been trying to save them when the plasma bombs went off. TThe smaller Master warriors could each transform into a powerful weapon and fuse with their larger partner's fist, creating Targetmasters. Spoilsport and his new partner Sureshot became soldiers together under Fortress' command. Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)

[edit] Trivia
- Spoilsport's Japanese character model differs from his American one. Oddly, it does not seem to have ever been published anywhere, with new artwork by Ban Magami used in various Japanese publications alongside the models for the other 5 Targetmaster companions.
