The Junkheap Triplets are Decepticons made by KSI who could combine into a MACK TerraPro Alt Mode, allowing for more area and destruction in battle.
History[]
Transformers: Age of Extinction[]
A full set of inactive Junkheap clones, simply his three compoents—a spare of the largest, greenest component, a medium-sized white component, and a small yellow component—were being transported by overhead rail as the issue-prone Galvatron prototype arrived at KSI's Chinese factory facility, and a pair of Junkheap doubles in their Waste Management garbage truck forms were also present nearby. After Galvatron—in truth possessed by the consciousness of the Decepticon leader Megatron—took control of KSI's prototype robots, he led them into Hong Kong to retrieve the ancient Seed device from humans who had fled with it, and a garbage truck was among the convoy.
Junkheap transformed into his three robot modes when Galvatron's forces arrived at the rough location of the humans and their Autobot defenders, and participated in the battle that followed, with a yellow Junkheap component seen lying defeated as Hound dispatched a white Junkheap component with an enormous knife.
Although the Autobots were subsequently reinforced by the arrival of the Dinobots, Galvatron's remaining forces, including green, white, and yellow Junkheap components, later converged on the industrial site where Optimus Prime had faced down Lockdown, only to be wiped out when the Autobot leader detonated one of the bounty hunter's powerful grenades.
Transformers: The Last Knight[]
During this time, the Junkheaps were left to their own devices in Megatron's absence. In Hong Kong, the yellow Junkheap and the green Junkheap got into a fight, with the white Junkheap left mostly standing by before finally joining in.
The Junkheap triplets sought to embrace their freedom, albeit without directly defecting to Autobots. The Junkheap triplets visited Cuba, where they would play friendly games of volleyball. (Oddly, one of Junkheap's components isn't seen during the scene where Junkheap's components were playing volleyball for unknown reasons)

Trivia[]
- Junkheap is one of the Transformers whose robot mode is more than one robot –– being 3 three components that can make his alt mode, and with this unusual trait, the Junkheap triplets can work together as a trio, Junkheap's unusual trait may have been inspired by Skids and Mudflap.
- It's unknown why KSI gave this KSI Drone with a garbage truck alt mode, as most KSI Drones are mostly sleek sport cars to be more agile, though there are a few likely reasons.
- The garbage truck alt mode fits Junkheap's name and function, as he is designed to deal with waste and debris.
- This alt mode allows him to blend into urban environments, making him less conspicuous and more practical for certain missions.
- While a garbage truck might seem slow, Junkheap's Cybertronian technology likely compensates for any speed limitations. Transformers often have enhanced capabilities that go beyond their alt modes' typical performance. So, despite his bulky appearance, Junkheap can still be quite effective in combat and other tasks, especially in conjunction with his three robot mode components.
- They're the only KSI Drones (Alongside Galvatron, the reborn Megatron) to be alive.
