| This article is about the Generation 1 subgroup. For the Energon subgroup, see Omnicon. |
- The Omnibots are an Autobot subgroup in the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Omnibots are a trio of reinforcements sent from planet Cybertron to assist the Autobots on planet Earth. They each have the ability to unleash a special, powerful weapon while in vehicle mode.
Their team consists of:
Fiction
Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers manga
The Omnibots appeared out of nowhere one day to embarrassingly hand Predaking, Bruticus, Menasor and Devastator their collective asses, and were then never seen again.
Dreamwave comics continuity
The Omnibots were defeated by the rampaging Menasor, unleashed on Iacon by Starscream. War and Peace
Toys
The Omnibots were available as a mail-in promotion, billed as "Reinforcements from Cybertron!" for the Autobots. Each was available for 4 Robot Points and $5.00 USD and came with instructions, decals, and some weapon attachments. No techspecs were included with these figures, as they were so new that they hadn't even had the chance to be tested before shipping off to Earth.
The car models were a set of Diaclone car models unused in the first run of the Transformers figures, and which kept their Diaclone colors and paints as opposed to the rest of the Autobot lineup. Considered by some to be the first "Triple Changers", due to their "third" mode in which panels folded out to reveal weapons and accesories.
