Neutrals are Transformers who have renounced the idea of factions or refused to take part in the Civil War. While some Neutrals resist joining a faction by choice, some defining themselves not by faction but by world, as the war drags on, the majority are those who are unsuited to combat, such as the Empties.
While "Neutral" is the Autobots' term for them, the Decepticons prefer to call them "target practice".

There would seem to be some robots within the Animated series who are neutral towards the conflict between the Autobots and Decepticons. While the good guys have blue eyes and the bad guys have red eyes, these Neutrals are usually depicted with yellow or purple eyes in order to set them apart. Two notable examples are Scrapper and Mixmaster, who kept going back and forth between the two factions before having their memories wiped by Bulkhead (but went with the 'Cons for a while, since they had better oil). Rise of the Constructicons In the branding rite that officially made the Decepticons, their eyes shifted to the traditional red. A Bridge Too Close, Part I Lockdown and Swindle are generally neutral, but they often side with the Decepticons, mostly because it's more profitable.
