''The Predacons were a [[Decepticon]] [[subgroup]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity.''


The Generation 1 Predacons were a sub-team of Decepticons consisting of Razorclaw (lion/leader), Rampage (tiger), Divebomb (vulture), Tantrum (bull), and Headstrong (rhino). They could combine to form Predaking.
The '''Predacons''' are a subgroup of Decepticons who transform into powerful, savage animals.  They are comprised of the cheerful [[Divebomb (G1)|Divebomb]], the stubborn [[Headstron (G1)|Headstrong]], the easily-distracted [[Rampage (G1)|Rampage]], the wrathful [[Tantrum (G1)|Tantrum]], and the ever-patient [[Razorclaw (G1)|Razorclaw]], their leader. They combine to form the deadly [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]].


They were often used in the fiction as foils to be set against either Sky Lynx or the Dinobots.

The Predacons were the largest G1 combiners, each aproximately the size of a Mega/Voyager toy of the modern era and some runs incorperating die-cast metal. Predaking was thus the most impressive combined robot in terms of size and weight in the Generation 1 line.
[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] tracked down the Predacons on the planet [[Beest]].  With the aid of three members of the [[Aerospace Elimination Squadron]], Megatron subdued and rebuilt them, allowing them to combine into the fearsome Predaking.

In the UK G1 comics the Predacon Divebomb was revealed to have stolen that name from the Dinobot Swoop after defeating him on Cybertron. This lead to a rivalry between the two and between their teams.
