| The name or term "Insecticon" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Insecticon (disambiguation). |
- The Insecticons are Transformer combiners from the Aligned continuity family.
This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.
The Insecticons are three combining drones created as an experiment by Shockwave for battle in the gladiatorial arenas of Kaon. They were primitive to the point of barely possessing a sentient consciousness, but surprisingly capable fighters. The way they moved together gave away their nature as combiners even when separate. One transformed into an ATV with magnetic studded tracks, one spit corrosive acid, and the last had multiple arms and vibroblade tipped hands. Even with one of their number dead the remaining two could combine into a hovering attack mode.
Fiction
Exodus
The trio competed in the gladiatorial Tournament of Champions when they encountered Megatronus. He allowed them to scan a vehicle form before attacking. One emerged from a scrapheap as an all-terrain vehicle and sought a vantage point on the combat pit's wall, while another sprayed acid on Megatronus's shoulder. Megatronus caught the third Insecticon's vibrobladed hands and tore an arm off, flinging it into the audience and causing havoc.
Taking fire from the other two, Megatronus made the wounded Insecticon fire his own ion cannon into its neck, killing it to ensure there would be no combination. He then slammed the acid-spitter to the floor, but it wriggled away and managed to combine with the ATV, wiring itself into girders while blasting and spitting acid at the gladiator. Megatronus transformed and blasted them, before pinning them down in robot mode and smashing them to pieces with two maces. Megatronus roared "I still function!", as the crowd began chanting a shortened version of his name: Megatron. Exodus
