	Although the ''Transformers: Energon'' comic book series by Dreamwave Productions was canceled before Barricade could appear in them, the Energon "More Than Meets The Eye" guide book was under development at the time.

	In the 2007 [[Transformers (film)\|live-action movie]], Barricade is a [[Decepticon]] scout who transforms into a [[Saleen S281\|Saleen S281E]] [[police car]], making him similar in appearance to the ''Generation 1'' [[Autobot]] [[Prowl (Transformers)\|Prowl]], who was actually in the first draft of the movie treatment before the writers thought that a Decepticon police car would be a better idea. He appears to be the rival of Bumblebee, standing at nearly the same height. He is a hunter/scout of the Decepticons, choosing his vehicle mode to easily hide among the humans as a symbol of authority. His persona appears to be that of the cliché "bad cop", as he fiercely interrogates [[Witwicky family#Samuel James Witwicky\|Sam Witwicky]] once he locates him. He mainly elongates his arms to reveal spinning spikes known as the blade wheels in his hands and uses them as close-combat striking weapons. He also has a long chain with a wheel on the end that reveals a set of cybertanium blades which form a large blade wheel. In Dark of The Moon, he wields what looks to be a 50&nbsp;mm chain gun. When in vehicle mode, he can simulate the appearance of a human driver, the same holographic model (referred to as "Mustache Man" on-set and in the credits) that "pilots" [[Blackout (Transformers)#Transformers\|Blackout]] and [[Starscream]].
