Frankenstein's monster is a monster brought to life by Doctor Frankenstein. In some realities where he is a robot constructed from desecrated Cybertronian corpses, this frightening mishmash of spare parts instead goes by the name Frankentron.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
- Voice actor: Peter Cullen (English)
While Spike recovered from a serious operation, one that left his mind in the body of Autobot X, he watched a movie on Teletraan I. The movie featured an inanimate being made of mis-matching parts and an evil brain. A hunched creature begged the creator of the behemoth, Dr. Frankenstein, not to reanimate the grotesque parody of life. The Doctor, however, thought that the creature would be grateful for the giant and powerful body given to him and vivified the monster. As it started to growl, the voice of the hunchback shrieked at Frankenstein that he had created a monster. Autobot Spike
The monster was one of the creatures conjured up by Daniel Witwicky's dreams, and used by the Quintessons to menace Rodimus, Ultra Magnus, Springer, and the Predacons. Nightmare Planet
