- The auto-combatant is a drone from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Some Autobot starships are equipped with auto-combatants to help the Autobots keep in practice while on long voyages.
Fiction
Generation 1
The Transformers cartoon
- Voice actor: Frank Welker (English)
The Autobots had to flee Autobot City on Earth after an attack by Galvatron's forces. During the voyage, Hot Rod activated the ship's auto-combatant for a little practice melee combat. Hot Rod used an Energon sword and a shield while the auto-combatant went weaponless. The auto-combatant paused for a moment to allow Hot Rod to speak with the rest of the crew, but then sucker-punched him in the back when he figured the conversation was ended. The shuttle then came under attack and Hot Rod ended his training session. The Transformers: The Movie
Dreamwave Generation One continuity
As training, Hubcap, Swerve, Red Alert, Tailgate and Pipes were pitted against some auto-combatants. They got their afts handed to them. Black Sunshine
Shattered Glass
The auto-combatants were solid holograms that could be generated by a computer in specifically designed rooms. Optimus Prime sometimes sparred with them while listening to reports from his inferiors. Shattered Glass
Notes
- Unnamed in the finished film, this droid's name comes from the movie's original script, and was used in the Ladybird adaptation of the movie.
