This traumatic event gave Roulette her passion for law enforcement, in the hopes that she could prevent such tragedies from happening to others. She placed second in the Intraformers Sharpshooting Competition behind Sureshot, but she was forgotten amongst the cheers for the winner. Her incredible marksmanship is dismissed even by her fellow Autobots, mostly because the more pigheaded of them could never believe a female Autobot could outshoot them. She doesn't mind; she knows they're jealous. [ [http://www.seibertron.com/database/character.php?view=&char_id=1204 Roulette (Autobot Deluxe Vehicles, Convention & Club Exclusives) ] ]

*Transformers: Universe Roulette (2003):Roulette was packaged together with her Decepticon sister Shadow Striker. The two were available exclusively at BotCon 2003. Both Roulette and Shadow Striker are slight remolds of "Robots in Disguse" Side Burn, with a new head. :Roulette's color scheme was based on Sakuyamon, as convention organizer Glen Hallit was also a big "Digimon" fan.:Roulette's toy is 12.5 cm long, and a Dodge Viper is 445 cm long. This is a scale of about 1:36. Since she stands 13 cm tall in robot mode, her robot mode would stand 15.4 feet tall.
