NUL-A

This article is about the Generation 1 robot. For the Kre-O robot, see NUL-A (Kre-O).

NUL-A is a mechanoid of unknown provenance from the cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

I guess everybody knows me at the dump.

NUL-A is a giant robot who leads a lonely existence running a junkyard. The junkyard may be in New York; NUL-A seems to be a big fan of the Yankees—or maybe that's just the only giant robot baseball cap he could find.

Fiction

The Transformers cartoon

Voice actor: Charlie Adler (English), ? (Japanese), Thomas Rau (German), Ulf Jürgen Söhmisch (German, Generation 2 Dub)

When First Aid briefly suffered a crisis of faith about his contributions to the Protectobots, he left the Autobots and sought refuge in NUL-A's junkyard. NUL-A was happy to have the company, since not a lot of people hang around the dump. First Aid was eventually convinced to return to the Autobots to perform the reinstallation of a transformation cog into Metroplex, but not before he cleaned the place up a little. It may be that NUL-A had all kinds of visitors after that.

But probably not. The Ultimate Weapon

Notes

• It is unclear what species of robot NUL-A is, as his speech and mannerisms clearly demonstrate him to be sentient rather than some kind of human-built drone.
• NUL-A mentions Wreck-Gar briefly, suggesting that he has at least heard of the Junkion leader. Considering his choice of homes, this is perhaps not unusual.
