## Biography

###  Early life

Hightower was at an unknown point born on Cybertron although it is known that he was already around when the Cube was lost. At some point he became the leader of the Constructicons.

### Resurrecting Megatron

In 2016 Hightower along with the rest of the Constructicons (Demolishor, Mixmaster, Overload, Rampage and Long Haul) accompanied Starscream during his attempt to resurrect Megatron on Minecraftia. The Constructicons hid onto one of the cargo holders at the Laurentian Abyss where Megatron and the rest of the deceased Decepticons were located. They managed to get there with the help of Soundwave and a tracker that was implented onto Sideways who died in the Battle of Shanghai. When Starscream arrived, the group jumped into the ocean and with Sideways' parts and the last remaining fragment of the Cube that was stolen by Ravage they managed to resurrect their fallen leader. Megatron then blasted his way out of the water and flew to one of Saturn's moons while the Constructicons hid on Minecraftia.

###  Decepticon Invasion

Hightower and the rest of the Constructicons were later present at the Decepticon hideout when Megatron and Starscream arrived there after killing Optimus Prime. The Decepticons soon launched a full-scale invasion, while the Autobots managed to find the matrix of leadership, which was an object that the Decepticons were looking for too. Upon finding it, they contacted their comrade Ironhide and told him their coordinates and to bring Optimus' body to them in order to resurrect him. The conversation was overheard by Soundwave who told all Decepticon forces to go to Egypt in order to end the war.

### Battle of Egypt and death

Following Soundwaves command, Hightower and the rest of the Constructicons travelled to Cairo and stopped at the pyramids. The Autobots who were just driving to the city quickly spotted Demolsihor, causing them to hide behind a hill. They then climbaed on top of the hill where Subwoofer shot Demolishor sevral times before they charged at the Constructicons. Early in the battle, Hightower fought Subwoofer but stopped when the Autobot got knocked back by Mixmaster. He then backed away from the fight and started to shoot the Autobots, but this was noticed by Skids, causing the Autobot to attack him. Hightower started to fight the Autobot, but Skids received help from Sub who knocked the Constructicon back with his MP blaster. After that, he retreated again but after he saw that the Autobots were winning, he rejoined the fight, only to be knocked back by Subwoofer's bass blaster. Sub however had to reload his guns after that and seeing the oppurtunity, Hightower tried to ambush him but he was stopped by Jolt and Skids. As Sub retreated, Hightower was forced to battle Jolt and Bumblebee as they started to rush at him, only for them to leave him in order to help Sub take down Overload. At that point Hightower, Demolishor and Overload were the only Constructicons still alive, only for Overload to be killed by Bumblebee. The Autobots then made one final push on the two remaining Constructicons, with Hightower being attacked by Skids, Jolt and Bumblebee, although he was saved when Demolishor threw them away. He then attempted to attack the group but got shot in the face by Subwoofer with a shotgun and got knocked back to Demolishor by Bumblebee. Moments later he got shot to death by Subwoofer, leaving only Demolishor to fall moments later.

### Post-mortem

After all of the Constructicons perished, Hightower's corpse combined with the rest of the Constructicons' dead bodies and formed Devastator, with his corpse forming the Combiner's left arm. Part of his remains were destroyed by Subwoofer when he shot at the Decepticon with his grenade launcher. Most of the remaining ones were blown up when Devastator was killed.
