Primacron is a fish-monkey an alien from the Generation 1, Unicron Trilogy, and Animated continuity families.
There are some things man just wasn't meant to know!

Primacron is an absolutely ancient scientist. He's supposedly hyper-intelligent with an infinity of intricate plans nested within plans, but he sometimes over-thinks things to the point of coming off as rather dim.

His major claim to fame is being responsible for building Unicron near the beginning of the galaxy. Thanks for nothing.

Fiction

Generation 1 cartoon continuity

The Transformers cartoon

Voice actor: Philip L. Clarke (English), Keiichi Nanba (Japanese), Peter Musäus (German)

Primacron's assistant claims that they built some of the "primitive" Transformers way back then. As he grew more ambitious, Primacron eventually constructed Unicron, who rebelled against him. Unicron's attack appeared to destroy the assistant and badly injured Primacron.

Primacron was down but not out. Not to be undone by a giant planet-devouring robotic monster, Primacron returned millions of years later to try the whole conquest again. This time, he created the giant energy-siphoning monster Tornedron. The same thing proceeded to happen again and Primacron would have been dead, if not for Grimlock's simple instincts (which somehow told him to reverse the polarity). Grimlock then proceeded to wreck his lab. Call of the Primitives

Controverse


I want to tell you about the Transformers!

This character article is a stub and is missing information on their fictional appearances. You can help MediaWiki by expanding it.

Controverse Ask Vector Prime

IDW Generation 1 continuity

Scoop used the phrase "Primacron knows". After being captured by a maniac and learning of his plans with Thunderwing, Jetfire said, "Primacron protect us!" Stormbringer #2

Animated cartoon

On his stellar cartography map, Swindle noted Primacron's lab on Protos. The AllSpark Almanac II

Ask Vector Prime

Vector Prime clarified that any Unicron created by a Primacron was not the multiversal singularity Unicron. He also noted that Primacron was not immune to fashion trends, wearing a yellow helmet because it was "all the rage" in Primax 984.17 Alpha.

In Aurex 304.0 Epsilon, the mad genius Primacron unleashed Mini-Cons on the cosmos. He also created Tornedron, which drained the entire universe dry of life and energy; Primacron did not survive his ultimate creation's exponential growth. Ask Vector Prime

Notes

  • When first telling their story, the assistant calls him "the being we will refer to as Primacron" and later calls himself "the Primacron's assistant". These seem to suggest that "Primacron" may actually be some sort of title and not this creature's actual name.

Foreign names

  • Japanese: Primacron (プリマクロン Purimakuron)
  • Mandarin: Zhìzūn Tàijūn (China, 至尊太君, "Supreme Great Lord")
