Chopshop in TF Fanfics

Insecticons rarely gain fanfic appearances and Deluxe Insecticons such as Chopshop never appeared in the comic or cartoon. Their only official portrayals were within the tech specs that came with their toys. However, unlike most other Deluxe Insecticons, this thief is blessed with a creative tech spec. Such a rare piece of writing has inspired some rather unforgetable moments, especially for a character who is virtually invisable to the official cannon.

Fanfics w/ him as a Main Character

Insecticons parts 1-6 (done) by Harith Jameel Alkhafiz

As far as I know, this is the oldest a.t.t. Fanfic to have Chopshop in it. Quite a few times I've considered adding it to my book of favorite dramatic fanfics, because this story went to great lengths to change my image of 'Chopshop, one of 4 Deluxe Insecticons' into 'Chopshop, the thief and individual.'

Rise of the Morning Star parts 16-29 (He appears in most of those parts. Incomplete) by ZacWilliam
(I don't know if this is on a web page, but it was posted to a.t.t.f.)

This also gives Chopshop a chance to be a main character as a carefully-weaved crisis explodes on Cybertron. Normally, when a character doesn't show up in all the parts, I don't call him a main character in the story, but in this case, he *is* a main character. He plays a very major role in the story and taking him out would leave a gaping hole.

Other Major Appearances and Significant Cameos

To be blunt, those two stories are the only ones I know of where even his name is mentioned.
