The Militant Monoform Movement, or Triple M, is a political/activist/terrorist movement that originated on pre-war Cybertron. As their name may indicate, they have only one mode, due to their symbolic rejection of Adaptus through the removal of their transformation cogs.
Members suffer from shapism.

Notes
- In "The Underbase Podcast Deconstructs Shadowplay" (01:37:19), James Roberts said Triple M consider it "heresy" to have more than one mode. (He also admitted, yup, it was a cunning way to explain the Action Masters.)
- Ammo is identified as a Monoformer in "Twenty Plus One", but not necessarily as a part of Triple M.
- Its name and some associated actions are reminiscent of the Argentinian group Triple A.
