Don't get him wet.

Allspark Mutations are Earth machinery brought to life as Transformers by the All Spark.

Fiction

Transformers (2007 film)

Agents working for Sector Seven learned to activate and channel All Spark radiation in their base under Hoover Dam. Their technique created heavily-armed psychopathic killing machines out of common Earth devices. The cube also emitted a pulse when dropped by Sam Witwicky as he fled from Decepticons in Mission City, spawning more robotic homicidal maniacs. Transformers

Titan Magazines Transformers movie comics

Allspark Mutations contain solidified All Spark energy in their chests that resemble small, red All Spark cubes. The living machines continued to run amok in Mission City Los Angeles until Starscream began killing them and taking their energy for his own purposes. Starscream's Militia

IDW Transformers movie comics

In the aftermath of the Mission City battle, Ironhide, Captain Lennox, Technical Sergeant Epps and a few other soldiers track down and destroy the All Spark's creations. Alliance issue 1

Three L.M.-1 drones were brought to life with energy from an AllSpark fragment and came to the defense of the humans. All three were quickly destroyed by Wreckage. Alliance issue 2

Revenge of the Fallen

After the Allspark's destruction only one small fragment was left so when Sam dropped it a burst of energy came out and was powerful to bring appliances from Sam's house to life. Bumblebee was called in to shoot them.

Toy packaging bios

The character bios for the Allspark Mutations Landmine, Jolt, Salvage, and the Real Gear Robots depict them as ordinary Autobots and Decepticons, despite their origin as Earth machinery brought to life with All Spark energy.

Games

Transformers: The Game

When the Autobots attempt to retrieve the All Spark, it produces drones from the local machinery to defend itself. As such, the All Spark-created transformers may have been feral as a survival mechanism. Transformers: Autobots

Trivia

• Screenwriter Roberto Orci has offered some potential explanations for the evil nature of on-screen Allspark Mutations both at BotCon 2007 and on the official movie forum
  • "Prime intended to use the Allspark to repower Cybertron as it was intended. Megatron wants to abuse it by creating Transformers directly, which makes souless[sic], primal Transformers."
  • "It is meant to power Cybertron, not adapt human technology. Also, since all earth's tech is reverse engineered from Megatron, maybe that affects the outcome, too."

• A final explanation can be taken from a mission in Transformers: Autobots. When the Autobots attempt to retrieve the All Spark, it produces drones from the local machinery to defend itself. As such, the All Spark-created transformers may have been feral as a survival mechanism.

• The exact circumstances by which the All Spark created other Transformers with more ordinary personalities from Earth machinery is currently unknown.

• None of the Allspark Mutations that appeared in the movie were in the leaked script except the XBOX 360 robot. The ones in the film were a Nokia phone, a Mountain Dew vending machine, a steering wheel and an XBOX 360. In the script, they were an iPod, devices in a truck and plasma televisions.

• The term "Allspark Mutations" comes from Alliance issue 1.
