The proud and mysterious brotherhood of the Cyber-Ninja Corps is one of the centerpieces of the Autobot security apparatus. Trained cyber-ninjas guard the Autobots' most valuable technological secrets and may also be assigned to protect long distance missions.
The Cyber-Ninja Dojo of Master Yoketron served both as the corps' martial arts training grounds and also the sanctuary for crucial strategic assets that had been entrusted to their care.
Some of their skills include Metallikato, Circuit-Su, and Processor-over-matter.

Notes
[edit]- Derrick J. Wyatt has divided the known members of the Cyber-Ninja Corps into four broad categories: swordsmen, boxers, sumo, and martial arts specialists. These classifications speak for themselves more often than not (no explanation is needed for the melee-weapon characters, nor for someone like Star Upper, who was all about boxing), but sometimes the rationale is a bit more obscure (Heavy Load, for instance, was only ever noted to be a martial artist in his bio; it never came across in the cartoon), or is a reference to some past fiction (Roadhandler being classified as a wrestler is the main example, being that it's a reference to his stint in the squared circle from the Marvel Comics story, "The Interplanetary Wrestling Championship!"). Conversely, sometimes it's just a joke—Grandus as a sumo, for instance, is purely a gag based on his generous proportions.
- The order of the busts in the room appears to go "Door -> Road Rocket/Star Saber/Kick-Off/Tap-Out -> Ultra Magnus? -> Roadhandler/Powerhug/Motorarm/Grandus -> Protoform Chamber Entrance -> Springer/Lockdown/Sky Garry/Devcon -> Yoketron -> Dai Atlas/Jazz/Heavy Load/Star Upper -> Door".
Foreign names
