The Autobots are the main protagonists of the Transformers franchise who come from the planet Cybertron.

Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime (voiced by Peter Cullen) is the leader of the Autobots, the last descendant of the Dynasty of Primes and keeper of the Matrix of Leadership. Optimus Prime transforms into a 1994 red and blue Peterbilt 379 semi-trailer truck in the first three films, a rusty 1973 Marmon HDT-AC 86 semi cab-over truck in the beginning of the fourth film, and later a blue and red 2014 Western Star 5700XE Phantom semi-truck.

In the first film, Optimus Prime arrives on Earth with Ratchet, Ironhide, and Jazz trying to find the AllSpark. At Mission City, he kills Bonecrusher and battles Megatron, but Sam pushes the AllSpark into Megatron's chest, killing him and destroying the cube; as a result, Cybertron can no longer be restored. Afterward, Optimus and the other Autobots form an alliance with the humans and work closely with them, with the resulting alliance being called NEST.

In Revenge of the Fallen, Optimus is killed by Megatron during a battle with him, Starscream, and Grindor. Near the end of the film, he is revived by Sam with the Matrix of Leadership and is fused with Jetfire, making him more powerful. Optimus Prime then faces the Fallen and Megatron. After a vicious fight, Optimus severely wounds Megatron and kills the Fallen, telling him to "give me your face."

In Dark of the Moon, Optimus revives Sentinel Prime using the Matrix of Leadership and reveals he was the leader of the Autobots before him. However, Sentinel betrays the Autobots and joins the Decepticons to restore Cybertron with the Pillars; meanwhile, the Autobots are sent into space. During the battle in Chicago, Optimus kills some Decepticons, including the Driller, Shockwave, and Megatron before he kills Sentinel Prime. In the film, Optimus is depicted with a trailer similar to his Generation 1 counterpart,^[1] and has been redesigned to look more heroic.^[2] The trailer contains enhanced weapons and flight gear. Optimus loses his right arm to Sentinel Prime at the film's climax.

In Age of Extinction, he is hunted by Harold Attinger, Cemetery Wind, and Lockdown, who is working for the Creators to bring him to Cybertron and kill any Autobots who refuse to give up his location. A badly wounded Optimus is discovered by struggling inventor Cade Yeager, who shelters him. Escaping the eyes of Cemetery Wind, Optimus leads the Autobots once again, taming the Dinobots and rides Grimlock to fight Galvatron and his new army of man-made Transformers. After defeating Galvatron's army, he kills Attinger and Lockdown. He sets the Dinobots free and asks his fellow Autobots to protect Cade and his family before taking the Seed into space and going after the Creators. At the start of the movie, Optimus uses a mode similar to his G1 counterpart but with a lot of rust.

In The Last Knight, Optimus arrives at Cybertron, now a dead planet. He finds Quintessa, the Prime of Life, who brainwashes Optimus to do her bidding of destroying the Earth, which she reveals is an ancient enemy planet, Unicron. She tells Prime that he must retrieve her staff to rebuild Cybertron. Prime's eyes turn purple and becomes Nemesis Prime under Quintessa's control. Just as he is about to kill Bumblebee, Bee speaks for the first time in ten years, which causes him to return to normal. He rides Dragonstorm into battle. After defeating Quintessa and saving both worlds, Optimus and the Autobots return to Cybertron, which has joined with the Earth into one planet.

Optimus Prime reappears and appears similar to his G1 counterpart in Bumblebee. He leads the Autobots against the Decepticons trying to take over Cybertron, but is forced to retreat when Decepticon reinforcements led by Soundwave and Shockwave attack them. Realizing that Cybertron has fallen, he orders all Autobots to get to their escape pods. He gives Bumblebee the task to protect the Earth and set up a base for them before being attacked by Ravage and other Decepticons.

In Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, Optimus Prime reappears and appears similar to his G1 counterpart; he transforms into a Freightliner FLA-8664T semi-trailer truck, a form which he gained previously in Bumblebee. Optimus and his fellow Autobots had been hiding for the past seven years, waiting for a means to return to Cybertron. When the signal of a Transwarp Key is activated in Brooklyn, he rallies the other Autobots to investigate the signal, with Mirage bringing in a civilian named Noah Diaz. Despite Bumblebee's earlier encounter with a human, Optimus is distrustful of human help. Optimus comes face-to-face with the Terrorcons' leader, Scourge, who defeats him in combat. Optimus witnesses the deactivation of Bumblebee, making it his mission to avenge his fallen comrade. Bumblebee, who would be revived by an infusion of raw Energon, would be avenged as Optimus disarms Scourge and rips out his head, destroying the Transwarp Key to stop Unicron's advance.

Bumblebee

Bumblebee (voiced by Dylan O'Brien in Bumblebee, Mark Ryan in the 2007 film and the second video game, Ben Schwartz in Age of Extinction,^[3] Erik Aadahl in The Last Knight, Fred Tatasciore in the third video game) is an Autobot scout, Hot Rod's brother-in-arms, and Sam's former guardian in the first three films. Bumblebee transforms into various types of Chevrolet Camaros; the first four films depict him as fifth generation Camaros before switching to a sixth generation in The Last Knight. Bumblebee depicts him as a Volkswagen Beetle, and Rise of the Beasts depicts him as a second-generation Camaro.

In Transformers, Sam Witwicky purchases a dirty 1977 Chevrolet Camaro, but it reveals it's actually an Autobot, Bumblebee. Later Bumblebee turns into a 2007 Chevrolet Camaro. Bumblebee is wounded during the battle at Mission City, though is able to defeat Brawl with Mikaela's help. Throughout the movie, Bumblebee uses radio soundbites to communicate due to his vocal box being damaged in battle; the prequel movie Bumblebee attributes this damage to the hands of Blitzwing. However, Bumblebee regains his voice by the end of the movie.

In Revenge of the Fallen, Bumblebee once again uses radio soundbites to communicate, and Sam tells Mikaela that Bumblebee is "playing it up". Bumblebee is sad about Sam's departure from college, though they would be reunited after a brief skirmish with a Pretender named Alice. Later in Egypt, Bumblebee faces off against both Rampage and Ravage, who he defeats.

In Dark of the Moon, Bumblebee, now separated from Sam, assists NEST in the Autobots' mission to prevent human conflict. After Sentinel's betrayal, Bumblebee and his fellow Autobots were sent into space. Bumblebee would land the finishing blow on the control pillar, destroying it.

For Age of Extinction, Bumblebee is a modified vintage 1967 Chevrolet Camaro, and later a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro concept. He appears after Optimus calls all the Autobots and has a rivalry with Drift. He later aids Hound in a battle, kills Stinger, and rides Strafe.

In The Last Knight, Bumblebee transforms into a 2016 Chevrolet Camaro and is accidentally given a female voice akin to Siri. Near the end, his real voice speaks again to Optimus, turning him back to normal and snapping him out of Quintessa's brainwashing. Flashbacks reveal that he and Hot Rod were the first Autobots to arrive on Earth and fought alongside the Allied forces to fight the Nazi Party during World War II, and transformed to a 1937 Mercedes-Benz Typ 320. He also knows Edmund from when they first met before he met Sam, and has the ability to reassemble himself after being blown to pieces.

Bumblebee is the main protagonist of the eponymous prequel. He is redesigned to resemble his G1 counterpart but more Bay-inspired and transforms into a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle. In the film, he lands on Earth in 1987 after Cybertron falls to the Decepticons. After his synthetic voice communicator is ripped out and destroyed by Blitzwing, he escapes and befriends Charlie Watson. He comes into conflict with Decepticons Shatter and Dropkick, who are looking for him to learn Optimus Prime's location. After being captured by Sector 7, led by Jack Burns, Shatter and Dropkick interrogate him. Bumblebee manages to kill them, and he and Charlie part ways so he can be with Optimus Prime and the other Autobots.^[4]

Bumblebee reappears in Rise of the Beasts, looking similar to his look in the first movie but with a changed head. Bumblebee is deactivated by Scourge before taking the latter's Autobot insignia off as a trophy and stealing the half of Transwarp key. During the final battle, he is revived by the Energon pulsing on Earth, with his arrival turning the tide of the battle.

Jazz

Jazz (voiced by Darius McCrary in the first film, Andrew Kishino in Transformers: The Game, Troy Baker in Rise of the Dark Spark) is the first lieutenant of the Autobots and Optimus Prime's second-in-command. Jazz transforms into a modified silver 2006 Pontiac Solstice Weekend Club Racer concept, and is armed with a crescent blaster. He is killed by Megatron during the battle in Mission City.

Ironhide

Ironhide (voiced by Jess Harnell) is the Autobots' English-accented weapons specialist who transforms into a modified black 2006 GMC TopKick C4500 medium-duty truck. Ironhide is armed with shell cannons. In Dark of the Moon, he has a new rifle and a new rocket launcher.

In Revenge of the Fallen, Ironhide takes down the Demolishor with Prime in Shanghai, then later takes over as the Autobots' leader when Optimus is killed by Megatron in the forest. He leads the Autobots in the desert battle and helps Sam get to the pillars where Optimus lies. He is heavily damaged and forced to drop his heavy cannons during an airstrike.

In Dark of the Moon, he helps Sideswipe take down the Dreads as they chase Sentinel to NEST. Sentinel Prime betrays the Autobots and kills Ironhide with a cosmic rust-shooting cannon that makes his parts rust and fall off. He also appears in a photo in Age of Extinction and The Last Knight. Ironhide also appears in the Bumblebee Cybertron scene.

Ratchet

Ratchet (voiced by Robert Foxworth in the first four films and the second video game, Dennis Singletary in Bumblebee, Fred Tatasciore in Transformers: The Game and the third video game, Keith Szarabajka in Rise of the Dark Spark) is the Autobots' medical officer who transforms into a Los Angeles Fire Department Search and Rescue 2004 Hummer H2. Ratchet is armed with Energon beam guns and a saw. For Dark of the Moon, Ratchet's alt mode has a new green and white paint job. In Age of Extinction, he has his spark torn out by Lockdown and his corpse is taken to KSI, who melts his head to build remote-controlled Transformers.

Ratchet reappears in a speaking cameo in Bumblebee, looking like his G1 self, where he is among the Autobots seen evacuating Cybertron.

In Rise of the Beasts, he transforms into a 1993 Porsche 911 (964) Carrera RS 3.8 and possesses the ability to holographically create clones, similar to his G1 counterpart. Throughout the events of the film, Mirage forms a close friendship with the human Noah Diaz and his younger brother Kris, promising to protect the two no matter the cost. Mirage, covering fire for Noah and staying true to his promise, is gravely wounded by Scourge but transforms his damaged body into a powered exo-suit for him so they can fight together. Noah would manage to repair Mirage in the mid-credits scene.

He is mistakenly shot down and killed by TRF, believing him to be a Decepticon trying to harm kids who had trespassed into a restricted zone. When Izabella vows to repair him, Canopy tells her to run and thanks her for her companionship.
Daytrader (voiced by Steve Buscemi) is an Autobot scavenger who transforms into a cloaked rusty Mercedes-Benz LK Model dump truck. He is seen arriving at Cade's junkyard after salvaging old Transformers parts from old battles for profit and finding a ship for the Autobots to leave. Daytrader is similar to the Autobot Wreck-Gar. Bumblebee once swore at him because of Daytrader giving him a female voice.
Trench is an Autobot who has a similar body to Scrapper and transforms into a yellow Caterpillar 320 excavator. He made a cameo in The Last Knight, transforming when the Decepticons are approaching Cade's junkyard, forcing Cade, the Autobots, and the others to escape. His fate is unknown.

Sharp T! is a mini version of Grimlock who learns to spit fire just like Grimlock. 'Tops is a mini version of Slug. Pterry is a mini version of Strafe with only one head. He is mentioned to be trained by Cade Yeager.
Edmund Burton's Autobot Allies: A group of Autobots that are allied with Sir Edmund Burton and Cogman.
- Bulldog (voiced by Mark Ryan) is an Autobot who acts as a sentry for Sir Edmund Burton's castle and transforms into an army green Mark IV tank. Bulldog suffers from "robot dementia" where he thinks that World War I is still happening.
- Lieutenant (voiced by Mark Ryan) resembles a tweaked version of Jetfire and transforms into a Supermarine Spitfire (although this is not shown). He made a cameo in The Last Knight within Edmund's castle in response to the TRF's arrival, but crashed to the ground.
- An unidentified HMS Alliance submarine Autobot takes Cade, Viviane, Cogman and Bumblebee to the Knights' sunken ship to recover the Staff of Merlin in The Last Knight who does not transform on screen, but is mentioned to be a Transformer by Santos and is referred to as "she".

The Maximals are a faction of Transformers that debut in Rise of the Beasts and sport techno-organic modes themed on Earth animals. They came from an unknown jungle-covered planet before it was devoured by Unicron.

Optimus Primal

Optimus Primal (voiced by Ron Perlman) is the leader of the Maximals who transforms into a western lowland gorilla. In robot mode, he wields two scimitar swords which can fuse into a double-bladed sword.

Cheetor

Cheetor (voiced by Tongayi Chirisa) is a Maximal scout who transforms into a cheetah. In his robot mode, he wields a spear which can split to two.

Rhinox

Rhinox is a Maximal commando who transforms into a white rhinoceros. In his robot mode, he wields a war hammer. He is the only Maximal that doesn't speak.

Airazor

Airazor (voiced by Michelle Yeoh) is a Maximal warrior who transforms into a peregrine falcon. She guided the Autobots and their human allies to her fellow Maximals. She gets driven mad by Scourge with Unicron's Dark Energon before she tells Optimus Primal to put her out of her misery. Airazor was avenged when Scourge is killed.

Apelinq

Apelinq (voiced by David Sobolov) is the former leader of the Maximals who transforms into a mountain gorilla. He has a similar appearance to Optimus Primal, but with a different color scheme involving bronze and silver, owns bigger fangs on the higher mandible, a left shoulder that seems to be asymmetrical to the right (being slightly more bulked up), and wields retractable axe blades on his forearms. After a brief scuffle with the Maximal, Apelinq is mortally wounded by Scourge before taking the latter's Maximal insignia as a trophy, but was too late to stop Optimus Primal and the rest of the Maximals from escaping the planet with the Transwarp Key before Unicron arrived and destroying their homeworld.

The Decepticons are the main antagonists of the Transformers franchise and the enemies of the Autobots.

In five films, 48 Decepticons have appeared in the series.

Megatron

Megatron (voiced by Hugo Weaving in the first three films, Frank Welker in The Last Knight and the first two video games, Fred Tatasciore in the third video game and Rise of the Dark Spark) is the leader of the Decepticons and the main antagonist of the Transformers franchise (serving as the main antagonist of first film, the secondary antagonist of the second, third and fifth films and a major antagonist in the fourth film).

Millennia before the films, Megatron crash-landed on Earth in the Arctic in his quest to obtain the AllSpark. When he is defrosted, he keeps his original alien jet form out of vanity. During the final battle in Mission City, Megatron kills Jazz and duels Optimus Prime. After being weakened by human fighter jets, Megatron is killed by Sam, who pushes the AllSpark into his spark core. Later, Megatron's body is dumped into the deepest part of the Laurentian Abyss.

Megatron returns in Revenge of the Fallen. Megatron is resurrected by Scalpel and the Constructicons with a shard of the AllSpark. Upon being revived, Megatron gains a new alternative mode as a Cybertronian flying tank. He kills Optimus Prime and both he and Soundwave hijack the Earth's telecommunications systems, allowing the Fallen to send a message that Sam be handed over to him. In Egypt, Megatron fights a resurrected Optimus, but is overpowered and badly damaged, losing the right side of his face and his right arm in the process. He watches as the Fallen is destroyed, and retreats with Starscream, swearing revenge.

In Dark of the Moon, with his right arm and his half face repaired, Megatron goes into hiding in Tanzania, and takes the form of a Mack Titan 10-wheeler tanker truck. Megatron makes a secret deal with former Autobot leader Sentinel Prime to invade the Earth with an army using Space Bridge pillars and use humanity to rebuild their damaged planet together. Megatron is betrayed by Sentinel and has command of the Decepticons taken from him. During the battle in Chicago, Carly goads Megatron back into action, and he ambushes and cripples Sentinel. When Cybertron's trip through the Space Bridge fails, Megatron attempts to make a false truce with Optimus, but the latter sees through the ruse and attacks Megatron before he could shoot Optimus, tearing off Megatron's head with an Energon axe before using his fusion shotgun to kill Sentinel.

In Age of Extinction, Megatron's head is seen at KSI where Brains discovers that Megatron's mind is still alive and in a deep stasis. Megatron silently manipulates Joshua Joyce and his creation of the artificial Transformers as part of his consciousness gets placed into Galvatron.

In The Last Knight, Galvatron is somehow reverted to Megatron and searches for the talisman to find Quintessa's staff after regaining some of his Decepticons that were held captive by the TRF. In the final battle on Cybertron, he is defeated by Optimus when Optimus cuts off his right arm as he did in Revenge of the Fallen, and is kicked through a wall, sending him falling back to Earth. His final fate is unknown.

Galvatron

Galvatron (voiced by Frank Welker) is a KSI drone, and a major antagonist in the Transformers: Age of Extinction movie. Megatron silently manipulates Joshua Joyce and KSI into allowing part of his consciousness to be transferred into Galvatron who transforms into a Freightliner Argosy cab-over truck. After Optimus Prime kills Lockdown, Galvatron escapes vowing to have his revenge.

The Fallen

The Fallen (voiced by Tony Todd in the film, James Arnold Taylor in the second video game), formerly Megatronus Prime, is the main antagonist of the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie. A rogue Prime of the Dynasty of Primes, the Fallen is the founder and first of the Decepticons, and Megatron's mentor.

In 17,000 B.C., the Fallen and his brothers set out into the universe, seeking distant suns to harvest to create Energon by building Star Harvesters. In defiance of the Primes' rule, Never destroy a planet with life, the Fallen sets about building a Star Harvester on Earth, which would destroy both the planet and its sun. To do this, he steals the Matrix of Leadership - the only thing that can turn on such a machine - but his brothers stop him, retrieve the Matrix, and hide it from him. Years after his betrayal, he is found on the Nemesis, which had crash-landed on one of Saturn's moons, in suspended animation. He can open Space Bridges at will and has telekinesis, powers that are restricted to the original Dynasty of Primes. He wields a void scepter as a melee weapon.^[14] In the film, the Fallen seeks to invade the Earth with an army of Decepticons and activate the Star Harvester for an alternative Energon source, as well as get revenge on humanity and the Autobots. He lands on Earth and uses the Earth's telecommunications grid (being hijacked by Megatron and Soundwave) to force the humans to hand over Sam Witwicky in order to guide the Decepticons to the Matrix of Leadership. In the final battle, the Fallen steals the Matrix from a revived Optimus Prime and starts up the Star Harvester. As the Star Harvester charges, Jetfire sacrifices himself to let Optimus utilize his components.

Megatron is disappointed to learn that the AllSpark is with the humans and berates his lieutenant for his failure, while ordering him to retrieve it. He briefly assists the Decepticons' efforts in Mission City and would retreat when Megatron is killed. In Revenge of the Fallen, Starscream oversees Megatron's return but is berated for attempting to take command. He and the Fallen are worried about the Decepticon hatchlings, who are dying without Energon. Starscream would try to assist Megatron in his fight against Optimus Prime, but his arm is cut off. Megatron berates Starscream for failing to find Sam as he attempts to fix his arm. He is then seen attacking the Autobots and the humans as they head towards Egypt. He informs Megatron when Optimus' body is brought back and later takes part in the attack with the other Decepticon forces. After the Fallen's demise, a grievously wounded Megatron flees with Starscream, not before vowing vengeance. In Dark of the Moon, Starscream is killed by Sam Witwicky who blows his head apart with one of Que's boomsticks. In The Last Knight, his head is in Daytrader's possession, who claims he found it in Buffalo, New York. Later it is seen being held by Megatron reminiscing about him.

Visual effects supervisor Scott Farrar said that the lack of eyes and mouth in Shockwave's design means "you have to read Shockwave through just the emotions of his face, almost like a silent-era film star," which caused the eye to have an intrinsic design, with a lens, a moving iris and an oscillating light.^[22]

Shatter

Shatter (voiced by Angela Bassett) is one of the two main antagonists of the Bumblebee movie. A female Decepticon Triple Changer who transforms into a 1972 Plymouth Satellite and a Harrier jump jet.

Scourge managed to track down the Maximals at a nearby forest and came face-to-face with their previous leader Apelinq. After a brief scuffle with the Maximal, Scourge fatally wounded Apelinq but was too late to stop Optimus Primal and the rest of the Maximals from escaping the planet with the Transwarp Key before Unicron arrived and destroyed their homeworld. After being reprimanded by his dark master for letting the Maximals get away with the Transwarp Key, Scourge vowed to search the entire universe for the key.

In 1994, Scourge lands on Earth, alongside his fellow Terrorcons: Battletrap and Nightbird, after having detected the Transwarp Key's energy signature from a museum in Brooklyn, New York. Upon arriving at the museum, Scourge sends two of his Freezers to retrieve the key from two humans: Noah Diaz and Elena Wallace. Soon enough, the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, arrive on the scene and a grueling battle ensues, with the Terrorcons proving resistant to damage due to being infused with Unicron's dark energy. Scourge managed to overpower Optimus and deactivate Bumblebee before taking the latter's Autobot insignia off as a trophy. The Terrorcons took the Transwarp Key just before the Maximal Warrior Airazor arrives and drives them off with her fire breath.

The Terrorcons followed the Autobots to the other half of the key's location and Scourge once again sends his Freezers to retrieve it from the humans. A chase scene ensues, with Scourge tackling Optimus Prime off a cliff, while Battletrap and Nightbird pursue the other Autobots. Though the Terrorcons end up retreating again due to Airazor's interference, Scourge managed to corrupt her by using Unicron's dark energy. When Noah, Elena, Airazor and the Autobots regroup with the other Maximals, now led by Optimus Primal, the dark energy begins to corrupt Airazor, resulting in her kidnapping Elena and delivering the other half of the key to Scourge.

Meanwhile, Scourge reassembles the key on top of a volcano and uses it to open a portal above Earth that Unicron can pass through. Soon after, the Autobots and Maximals join forces to defeat the Terrorcons while Noah and Elena sneak toward the Transwarp Key to deactivate it. Though Nightbird and Battletrap die in the battle, Scourge manages to gravely wound the Autobot Mirage. Despite his injuries, the young Autobot transforms the remains of his body into an exo-suit for Noah to assist Optimus in his fight with Scourge. During the fight, Scourge destroys the control console, meaning the portal cannot be closed. Scourge is killed by an enraged Optimus Prime, by slicing off both of his arms and ripping his head and spinal cord from him during the final fight.

Nightbird

Nightbird (voiced by Michaela Jaé Rodriguez) is one of two secondary antagonists of the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts movie, and a Terrorcon ninja and Scourge's second-in-command, who transforms into a customized 1995 Nissan Skyline GT-R R33.

The resulting explosion reduced her to nothing more than a shower of broken parts, the only ones left intact being her swords.

Battletrap

Battletrap (voiced by David Sobolov) is one of two secondary antagonists of the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts movie, and a Terrorcon commando who transforms into an orange 1980s GMC TopKick C7000 tow truck.

Carly Spencer

Carly Spencer (portrayed by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) is Sam's second love interest and later fiancé, based on the character from the original The Transformers cartoon.

Critics were highly critical of Huntington-Whiteley and LaBeouf's acting; Peter Travers stated the two "couldn't be duller".^[50]

Jason Solomons of The Observer wrote that "we're first introduced to Rosie via a close-up of her bum, segueing straight from the film's opening sequence and titles on to the pert buttocks and underwear of our heroine", and that Huntington-Whiteley's English posh girl accent "renders her practically unintelligible when surrounded by American accents and falling masonry".^[51] Much of the criticism towards Huntington-Whiteley compared her negatively to Fox. Cody Benjamin of Intelligencer Journal found Rosie Huntington-Whiteley a "visually attractive replacement for Megan Fox and [she] does a decent job playing Witwicky's new girlfriend".^[52]

In a positive review, Drew McWeeny of HitFix said, "She reminds me of Cameron Diaz in The Mask, an actress who doesn't really show off any range, but who gives a natural, winning performance and who is up to the challenge of this particular picture."^[53]

Seymour Simmons

Agent Seymour Rutherford Simmons (portrayed by Nick Pilla in Bumblebee, John Turturro in the other films) is a former arrogant and paranoid Sector 7 special agent, the son of Tova Simmons, Sam's unlikely enemy-turned-ally in the second and third films, and the last surviving member of the Order of the Witwiccans.

Dynasty of Primes (three of them voiced by Michael York, Kevin Michael Richardson, Robin Atkin Downes) - Six of the Seven Primes and the overarching protagonists of the Transformers franchise. The Seven Primes are the first Cybertronians who travelled to distant galaxies looking for planets where they could build Star Harvesters. It was during the Dynasty's rule that Star Harvesters were not to be used in containing life. In 17,000 B.C.E., one of them defied the rule by powering up the Star Harvester, an act that ignited a war and earned him the name the Fallen. To stop the destruction of both the planet and its sun, the remaining six stole and hid the Matrix of Leadership, sacrificing themselves to make a tomb of their own bodies, sealing the Matrix away. When Sam dies, his spirit communes with the six Primes and they tell him he has earned his destiny. They resurrect Sam, who uses the Matrix of Leadership to bring Optimus back to life and kill the Fallen.

In Age of Extinction, Lockdown works for Quintessa to bring Optimus to a damaged Cybertron and kill any Autobots who refuse to give up his location. He also makes a deal with Attinger to kill both the remaining Autobots and Deceptions on Earth, while offering the Seed in exchange for aid in hunting Optimus. In a duel in Hong Kong, while trying to recapture Prime, Lockdown is bisected by Optimus from behind.
- The Shadow Raiders - Lockdown's techno-organic henchmen. They use their Drone balls to detect intruders on ships. Most are killed by Cade, Shane, and Crosshairs, while the rest remain inside Lockdown's ship.
- Steeljaws - Lockdown's techno-organic wolf-like hounds. During the Autobots' raid in the Knight Ship, while hanging on the cables, they are killed by Cade and Bumblebee.
Unicron (voiced by Colman Domingo) - A planet-sized Chaos Bringer, a very first Cybertronian and Cybertron's ancient enemy who formed around himself as the Earth. In The Last Knight, his six horns only appeared when emerging and sensing a damaged Cybertron's approach to collide with. Unicron appeared as the overarching antagonist of the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts film where he is depicted as a separate entity much like his G1 self-retconning his appearance in The Last Knight.
The Creators - The overarching antagonists of the Transformers: Age of Extinction movie, and are unseen mysterious pink extraterrestrial race who are the creators of all Cybertronians. 65 million B.C.E., in their ships, they invade every organic planet, using the Seeds, cyberforming the planet, ending the age of Dinosaurs to an KT extinction event on Earth. They harvest and use the resultant metal and the AllSpark to build Cybertronians. Million years later, Quintessa sends Lockdown to Earth for one task - bring Optimus to rebuild a damaged Cybertron, kill any Autobots that interfere, and wanting the Creators' "chessboard cleaned". They appear to be hostile and consider the intermingling of species to upset the cosmic balance. After Lockdown is killed, Optimus flies into space, stating that he is coming for them with the Seed.
- Quintessa (voiced and portrayed by Gemma Chan) - A forceful, malevolent Cybertronian sorceress and the "Prime of Life" who seeks to destroy Unicron (and the Earth), and the main antagonist of the Transformers: The Last Knight movie. She originally possesses a magical staff for Cybertron till her Knights betray her, steal, and hide the staff on Earth. After Cybertron was destroyed in Dark of the Moon, she plans to destroy the Earth to rebuild her planet by draining Unicron's energy with Megatron and a formerly-brainwashed Optimus, under her spell as "Nemesis Prime", to find her staff. Originally killed by Bumblebee from behind, she secretly survived when she used Space Bridges forcing her to retreat, disguises herself as a human, and shows the humans how to kill Unicron.
The Knights of Iacon - Twelve Cybertronian Guardian Knights^[69] who betrayed Quintessa, took, hid her staff on Earth within their crashed ship, and later gave it to Merlin during the Dark Ages. They also combine into a giant three-headed dragon named Dragonstorm.
- Infernocons - Quintessa's six demonic minions who replaced her Knights and which combine into Infernocus. In the climax, they are destroyed by Optimus in one shot.
