Not only might audiences see the Maximals and Predacons, but they could see the silly and violent group of Terrorcons. The inclusion of these characters could be visually fun for the film, as well as indulgent in the deep lore that’s involved with theTransformersfranchise.
6They Attacked Autobot City
As followers of Galvatron, the Terrorcons more than happily took part in the attack on Autobot City. This attack was a schemed plot to steal the Key to the Plasma Energy Chamber, which was the foundry where the original Autobots’ bodies were created, even after a million years. It’s a sworn duty for an Autobot leader to protect this facility and the Key, which makes complete sense as to why Galvatron would want it.
This attack from Galvatron and the Decepticons saw a ravaging of Cybertron, and Hun-Gurr’s Terrarcons were merrily engaged in the war. They werebattling Autobots, Constructicons, and Aerialbots, all forthe sake of Galvatron. Their attack on Autobot City created sworn enemies with the Autobots, but they all managed to escape with the Decepticons with their lives intact. The same could not be said for their lack of wit.
5Quintessons Control
Sometimes, the Terrorcons get bored of their allegiance to the Decepticons and decide to change factions. This doesn’t mean that theyjoin the Autobots, as there are plenty of factions in theTransformersuniverse. They more than likely stick with the Quintessons, which is explained in the Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity that they werecreated by the Quintessons, which is perhaps why they were under their control of them for one or two episodes.
The Quintessons have had a few missions for the Terrorcons. These beings are a bizarre and ancient race that harbors a dark history, one that has not been explored to its fullest potential. The Quintessons rely on deceit and machinery to do their labor whilst they hide in cowardice. They also have connections to theTransformers, as well as Primus and Unicron.
4Decepticon Allies
As if the Decepticons could not be any deadlier, they, of course, go and find themselves new allies. The Decepticons are a vicious threat to all life, considering they want nothing more than to dominate and control all with immense power and greed. Nothing will stand in their way, and their honor is lacking. This is why theTerrorcons make for perfect alliesof the Decepticons, as they also lack decency and love fighting.
The Terrorcons have joined the Decepticons in many battles against the Autobots. They have assisted them on Cybertron, as well as Earth’s Moon. Although the group of Terrorcons may lack some great intellect, fueled with leadership from Galvatron, they become great fighters, if not a little lacking in superior firepower.
3Not The Sharpest Bunch
The Terrorcons are hard to hate, considering their personalities are rather bizarre and made up of brains of nuts and bolts. They don’t harbor great intelligence, and people can easily outsmart the Terrorcons, especially when they are alone. They’re positively crazed and hilariously weird and quirky, even if they are rather murderous based on orders or dares.

The Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity sought to explain why the Terrorcons lack a decent IQ between them. The Japanese continuity involves the Terrorcons being created by the Quintessons without Vector Sigma. This means that the Terrorcons were created without the level of intellectseen in Decepticonsand Autobots, as Vector Sigma is an incredible and ancient super-computer in the heart of Cybertron.
2Terrorcons Members
The Terrorcons don’t have the same numbers of members that the Autobots and Decepticons do. Nor do they need or want them. They’re a less than gentle bunch, with a lack of loyalty for even their team. However, there consists of 5, sometimes 6, members of the Terrorcons. The first is their leader, the gluttonous Hun-Gurrr, who seems to always be eating something.
Other members consist of Rippersnapper, who is obsessed with a superior status as a machine. Then, the disgusting stench riddled Blot. There’s also Sinnertwin and the violent Cutthroat. The sixth member is not the smartest of the bunch, Cindersaur.
1Abominus
When Decepticons combine, there’s a great danger that the resulting combination of minds and bodies results in a blind fury. However, perhaps none are as mindless and dangerous as Abominus. Abominus is forged when five of the Terrorcons combine to forge such a mindless fury, a great metal animal known as Abominus.
The Terrorcons have one thing in common, which is their shared desire for fun. In the case of the Terrorcons, the fun does not equal video games or movies, or even food. They love destructive rage, which is all Abominus can know. When Decepticon leaders cannot give them verbal orders, they just point at what needs destroying, which Abominus happily indulges.
Transformers: Rise of the Beastsis scheduled to release in theatres in 2023.
