Everything about Longrack totally explained
Longrack is the name of several characters within in the fictional
Transformers universes.
Beast Wars Neo
Longrack is the gabby, annoying class committee member of the group. He is quite serious about following rules to the letter, and will butt in and aggressively complain to others about it. His Arm Shot attack extends his right arm, while his Crush Arm grabs and mangles his enemies. Longrack also specializes in tinkering with machines.
Animated series
At the beginning of Beast Wars Neo, Longrack is unaccustomed to the responsibility that he's given, resulting in his commonly issuing unreasonable orders. When
Big Convoy is MIA due to being trapped by the robotic spider “Biter,” Longrack attempts to take charge of the rookie
Maximals. To his dismay, his classmates continue to ignore his orders and operate on their own. Big Convoy soon escapes and resumes command of the recruits, leading the Maximals to victory yet again. Big Convoy then explains to Longrack that while one day he may be a great leader with the respect he deserves, he's still young and needs to earn the trust of his fellow soldiers.
