The name or term "Defensor" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Defensor (disambiguation).
Defensor is an Autobot Micromaster combiner from the Unicron Trilogy continuity family (via the 2003 Universe series).
Great. NOW you've pissed him off!

Defensor is the sum of six Autobot Micromaster Protectobots: Groove, First Aid, Hot Spot, Prowl, Red Alert, and Streetwise. Defensor's personality, like that of his components, is unknown.

Of course, being a combiner composed entirely of Micromasters, Defensor is only of slightly larger than average height, as Transformers go. (Unlike Sixturbo, to whom he is nearly identical.) However, this size boost seems to be enough to let his components go toe-to-toe with opponents they could not handle individually.

Universe (2003)

Defensor is a very slight redeco of the Micromaster version of the Sixturbo team. His combiner kibble combines to form a single-pilot jet when Defensor is split into his component robots. He was never available as a complete packaged set; the six individual members of Defensor were packaged separately, available originally as exclusives to KB Toys stores in 2004. He later appeared in Sears stores during the Christmas season (KB partnered with Sears, a chain that usually doesn't have a toy department), as well as being available online at Kmart's web site.


Energon

The Protectobots were released in Europe under the Energon line.
