They abandon their plan to return to Cybertron and basically become bums, floating about the outer rim while occasionally taking odd jobs. Despair Event Horizon: Learning of Megatron's side-change and Starscream's election pushes them towards this.Crankcase and Misfire are especially prone to it, with Spinister's strangeness hitting the trope sometimes as well.

Comedic Sociopathy: As Decepticons they lack much of the moral fiber of the Lost Light crew and that's used for humor quite often.Born Lucky: All of them, but Crankcase in particular, having survived an attack by Thunderwing, who it should be noted managed to shrug off the combined firepower of the Autobot and Decepticon armies, with nothing more than a head-wound.Babies Ever After: They collectively adopt a baby, whom they go to collect at the end of Issue #25.By the time they finally cross paths with the Lost Light crew they seem mostly ambivalent to the whole faction thing due to Megatron's public renouncement of the cause. Ambiguously Evil: They're willing to use a still living Autobot as a campfire among other things, but it's not clear if their hatred of the Autobots is a personal decision or because they were quite literally born to fight the war.The Atoner: After the events of issue 46, they decide to help the various disenfranchised Decepticons in the galaxy.Still, they've survived when countless others have died. The Scavengers are not those Decepticons according to Tarn's analysis of Banzai-Tron's files, they are in fact the six worst Decepticons in history.

Imagine if you will, the cream of the Decepticon crop.
