Mandroid is a human from the EarthSpark continuity family.
Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!

Dr. Meridian, also known as Mandroid (not to his face), is a former G.H.O.S.T. scientist who served in the Autobot-Decepticon war on Earth. After losing his right arm during the conflict, he gained a new hatred against the entire Cybertronian species. Now with a twisted new mindset and a horde of Arachnamechs at his disposal, he seeks to become the protector of Earth and its inhabitants he believes they need, through the annihilation of all Cybertronians. In order to accomplish this mission, he decides it's necessary to become more like them—even if he must sacrifice his mind and body in the process.

Meridian was drafted by G.H.O.S.T. during the war to work in robotics. He worked in a lab in San Francisco until the building was destroyed by Autobot friendly fire during the Battle of the Bay and he had to be pulled from the rubble by his Arachnamechs. Gaining a hatred of the aliens warring on Earth, he resolved to do his utmost to destroy them. Age of Evolution, Part 1

Years later, he had set up base in Pennsylvania, not far from G.H.O.S.T. HQ in Witwicky, and had his Arachnamechs attack G.H.O.S.T. convoys. They were able to intercept the transport carrying the Decepticon Hardtop, and Meridian removed the Con's right arm, Secret Legacy, Part 1 attaching it to himself to replace the arm he'd lost during the war. Learning of new Transformers, Meridian was able to fake a G.H.O.S.T. convoy to abduct them for examination. Learning that they were unlike the other Cybertronians, he dubbed the pair "Cybertronus terrans", leading them to dub him "Mandroid" in response. When Optimus Prime turned up with forces to rescue the two Terrans, Mandroid unleashed Hardtop, Shrapnel, Bombshell and Skullcruncher to fight them while he hastily escaped. Secret Legacy, Part 2 Finding it difficult to aim and fire a Cybertronian-sized blaster with Hardtop's arm, Mandroid ordered his Arachnamechs to capture him more Cybertronians. Traditions

Gaining the services of Nova Storm and Skywarp, Mandroid sent the pair to attack a televised Autobot Alliance ceremony with the aim of obtaining Optimus Prime's left arm. Though they failed, Mandroid switched to a more subtle plan, using the pair as bait in a trap. The trap resulted in him capturing Megatron and Dot Malto — though the latter rebuffed his invitation to join his crusade against the Cybertronians — and he dispatched the two Seekers with Arachnamechs, this time intending to use the captives as hostages to obtain the arm he wanted. Age of Evolution, Part 1 Though he had his Arachnamechs hunt Dot through the base, she was able to get out a signal. When Optimus and the two Terrans arrived at his base as captives of more Terrans posing as bounty hunters, Mandroid quickly saw through the deception. Mandroid unleashed the full power of his base, revealing it to be a giant mech. The ensuing battle saw the defeat of the mech, though Mandroid still made his escape. Age of Evolution, Part 2

After his defeat by the Terrans, Mandroid began collaborating with the underground Bot Brawl ring in Philadelphia, developing a cognitive inhibitor capable of forcing Cybertronians to fight while attached to them, solving its organizers' dino-problem in exchange for spare parts from the scrapped combatants. Home, Part 1 He took the left arm of the fallen Brawl as his own, though his increasing number of Cybertronian prosthetics began to wreak havoc on his body, and forced him to begin consuming energon to survive. When Bumblebee and the Maltos began investigating the remains of Bot Brawl arena he operated out of, he managed to use a new version of inhibitor chip to take control of Hashtag. Making his escape, he ordered the controlled Hashtag to make sure she returned to him with her Terran siblings, either whole or in pieces. However, the Terrans were eventually able to break his control of their sister and free her. Mandroid eventually rendezvoused with the Bot Brawl's organizer, G.H.O.S.T. Agent Croft, who formally recruited him to help construct more control badges, offering him both energon and the captured Decepticon prisoners of G.H.O.S.T. as his test subjects. Home, Part 2
