Generation 2 Defensor and Menasor are toys from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Generation 2 Defensor and Generation 2 Menasor are toys which are highly sought after by collectors. The Decepticon Shortround, himself an obsessive collector of such toys from throughout the galaxy, considers his complete, mint condition versions of these items to be the prizes of his collection.<ref>Shortround's Cyber Key Code bio</ref>

It is unknown exactly what sort of toys these items are. Therefore it is also unknown what relationship, if any, they might have to the Transformers bearing the names "Defensor" and "Menasor" that are known to exist within the multiverse.

Fiction and reality

Mmmm, unobtainium

In case it's unclear, the above toys are fictional, since they're part of the collection of a fictional character.

In the real world, Hasbro and Takara initially planned to release Protectobot and Stunticon toys in Generation 2 (which would thus combine into Generation 2 Defensor and Menasor, respectively), but canceled them after making a handful of production samples. These samples are, just like their namesakes in the Cybertron universe, coveted by collectors, despite (perhaps, dare we say it, for?) being neon enough to glow in the dark.
