- The Obliterators are a subgroup from the Generation 1 and Generation 2 portions of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Obliterators are a cross-factional subgroup in charge of powerful artillery platforms that transform into the back halves of their alternate modes. Oddly, there's only one member of the subgroup on each side—the Autobots have Pyro while the Decepticons have Clench. With an ominous name like "Obliterators", maybe they're both powerful enough to be considered one-man armies.

Toys
Generation 1
- The Obliterators were first sold in the "transitional" period of Transformers in European markets, using Generation 1-style packaging but Generation 2-style faction symbols. The robots only transform into the front half of vehicles; their main gimmick is their missile-launching battle platforms, which transform into the vehicles' back halves and combine with the robot halves.
Generation 2
- When the actual Generation 2 was launched, the Obliterators were released in new packaging with new names. The toys themselves are identical to their previous release.
