CURRENT FORMATTING
Marvel Comics continuity
I don't think there was diddley-shit in this continuity. I mean, maybe in Regeneration 1? I don't know. Any rate the real meat of why I'm doing this is below anyway, when the fictions sub-continuity's like a mofo.
Generation 1 cartoon continuity
Despite the proliferation of gigantic robotic life-forms across space, many of which also had the ability to transform, actual established cybertronian colonies are somewhat few and far between. Quintessa could maybe arguably be called a colony world. Junkion is apparently just some place where sentient transforming robots also happened to happen, seemingly with no connections to Cybertron.
The Transformers cartoon
The Thirteenth Legion of Autobots, fleeing the wars of Cybertron, landed on Antilla. There, they founded a thriving colony. Eventually, however, they were killed by the malignant Cosmic Rust. Cosmic Rust
According to Sandstorm, the planet Paradron was colonized by a group of pacifistic Autobots after the "Fourth Great War". The planet they chose to inhabit was hidden within a space vortex and possessed an Energon core, granting its inhabitants almost unlimited energy and a safe refuge from the Decepticons and other threats. The inhabitants of the world lived peacefully for many years until the arrival of the Decepticons in 2006 brought the war to their world. Unwilling to let the Decepticons seize the planet's energon supply, Rodimus Prime made the decision to destroy the planet. The survivors, led by Sandstorm, were subsequently relocated to Cybertron. Fight or Flee
Japanese cartoon continuity
The Headmasters cartoon
So a buncha tiny little Transformers ran away from Cybertron and crash-landed their but on the planet desert planet that'd become known as Master, which really sucked for them. Eventually some of them made giant transforming bodies and turned themselves into heads and, I dunno, left all the others to die? It's been forever since I watched the series to any great length and it was pretty boring.
Victory cartoon
What we got here is the planet Micro, which seems to be an Autobot colony full of more teeny little robots. Man, all the teeny robots just couldn't leave Cybertron quick enough, huh? Any rate they formed a planet of Micromasters that got invaded by Decepticons every now and then and mostly I'm just filling space here.
Ask Vector Prime
Vehicon was a planet home to some technological civilization, apparently named the Tripurans, that had disappeared by the time that the inhabitants of Cybertron discovered the planet. Reverse Convoy subsequently led a colonization team which explored the planet, which proved to be a paradise. They dubbed the planet "Vehicon" for the numerous automated factories that had been left behind by the Tripurans; the Cybertronians turned the infrastructure for their own use. Most astonishing about Vehicon was that its sole moon had apparently been collapsed into a singularity by the Tripurans, generating immense gravitational tides. Reverse Convoy's forces were able to utilize the tides to generate vast quantities of energon, turning Vehicon into one of Cybertron's most valuable energy producers. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/07/14
Wings Universe
In the 30th century, it was not uncommon for colonies to comprise members of a single faction. The Wrecker ship Rodimus Major was on its way to check up on one such Predacon colony near the Dark Nebula when it disappeared into a spatial anomaly. Apelinq's personal logs, 2015/01/17
Ask Vector Prime
According to Vector Prime, the Protectobots lived on the colony world Archon until it failed and they wound up in stasis lock. Omega Supreme discovered them and brought them to Earth, where they were revived and joined the Autobots. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/09/21
Beast Wars cartoon
Colony Omicron was a Maximal colony established some three centuries after the Great War. Protoform X was incarcerated at the colony but he escaped and destroyed it, along with every Transformer. The only survivor was the security chief, Depth Charge. Haunted by the massacre and survivor's guilt, Depth Charge spent four stellar cycles hunting down X. Deep Metal
Unicron Trilogy cartoon continuity
Energon cartoon
Omnitron was discovered by a group of Transformers who were fed up with the war. Under Rodimus's leadership, they turned it into a thriving colony. Over time, the inhabitants evolved into the Omnicons. Survival Instincts
Cybertron cartoon
In ancient times, Primus gifted the Cyber Planet Keys to his children. After the first defeat of Unicron, the Cybertronians planned to found colonies to spread Primus's essence throughout the cosmos. Transformers founded least three major colonies, using a combination of space bridges and massive colonization ships—the Ogygia colonized Velocitron, the Hyperborea landed on Jungle Planet, and the Lemuria formed the center of the gigantic construction site of Gigantion. It was intended that a space bridge network would connect these colonies to each other and the homeworld, but this project failed and the colonies lost contact with each other. The Transformers on these worlds developed in isolation until 2030, when the Unicron Singularity crisis necessitated the recovery of the Cyber Keys.
Cybertron comic
Jackhammer mistakenly believed Ramjet and Nemesis Prime to be "stinking refugees from the Junk Planet". Balancing Act
Timelines
The four Planet Key-carrying ships were accompanied by many smaller ships to establish relay points on the planned space bridge network. One of these minor colonies was Combatron, which was established as a garrison to prepare for the return of Unicron. Unfortunately, Combatron's leader King Atlas mysteriously disappeared, and his soldiers descended into a civil war which wiped out almost all life on the planet. Force of Habit
Animated continuity
Cybertronians first left their homeworld six billion years ago, during Cybertron's Golden Age. They succeeded in colonizing their solar system, but isolationism prevented any further expansion. Following the Third Cybertronian War, the Age of Expansion proper began 750 million years ago, overseen by the nascent Autobot faction and laying the groundwork for the future Autobot Commonwealth—an economic alliance of affiliated planets that encouraged free trade within its borders.
During the Great War, numerous colonies within the Commonwealth were occupied by Decepticons; during the final days of the war, the Autobots launched a planet-hopping campaign that liberated numerous colonies, ending with Omnitron during the Battle for Omnitron. The Autobots were, by and large, successful, although several colonies within the Commonwealth were destroyed over the course of the war.
At the end of the Great War, the Decepticons accepted exile in exchange for amnesty, and founded a small Decepticon Empire of their own on the western rim of the galaxy. The AllSpark Almanac II
