- Mantis is a Maximal Insectron from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Of all the Insectron warriors, Mantis is by far the most hostile. He likes peace and quiet and if disturbed he’ll explode into a fit of rage that’s nearly impossible to avoid. Though he seems like an absolute nutcase he only wants one thing, relaxation. As a member of the Insectrons, he and his cohorts left Cybertron in an attempt to escape the wars that never seemed to go away. He had thought he had found a safe haven on Gaia. Now that the battle has been shifted to his new home, he doesn’t care what side he fights on just as long as everyone leaves him alone!
Unfortunately, he has a constant thorn in his side: Autolauncher, who seeks to crush Mantis and prove he's the best disc-slinger there is. But Mantis' telekinetic control of his disc in mid-flight certainly give him an advantage.
