- Outliers are mutant Cybertronians from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Outliers are Transformers who possess abilities that have no apparent connection to their alternate mode. Persecuted in the Functionist era of Cybertron, some were hidden away within the Jhiaxian Academy of Advanced Technology, spending their time learning to control their extraordinary powers to protect the world that hated and feared them.
Known outliers include:
- Windcharger, whose arms act as magnets.
- Glitch, an empurata victim with the ability to render non-sentient objects non-functional by touching them.
- Skids, who can quickly perfect any new skill he wants to.
- Trailbreaker, who can generate forcefields.
