- Death crystals are a substance from the cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Death crystals are harder than the strongest metal known. When used as ammunition, they can destroy starships or even entire planets.
The greenish crystals are shed from the vicious alien monster known as Chaos. They are found in the Chaos's lair on the planet Dread, where the Orbs, and later the Decepticons, used slaves to mine the crystals.
Fiction
Generation One
The Transformers cartoon
A Skuxxoid was using a death crystal cannon to blow stuff up for kicks, when Blast Off intercepted him. The Skuxxoid negotiated to sell the weapon to the Decepticon, who tested it by obliterating a conveniently nearby EDC command station. When the Autobots arrived on the planet of Goo to investigate the station's destruction, Kup recognized the crystals' origin. Blast Off and Runamuck soon attacked the Autobots with their new weapon; they pursued them through space, destroying a nearby planetoid in the process.
Learning of the death crystals, Galvatron wasted no time setting up operations on Dread. His goal: the destruction of Cybertron via a giant death crystal cannon. Before Galvatron could fire the weapon, the Autobots commandeered the cannon. Kup then used it to blast Chaos himself, though dust and smoke obscured the results. Chaos
