Teknicus is a rather intelligent Monsterbot.

Fiction

Cyberverse cartoon

Voice actor: Billy Bob Thompson (English)

At some point following Cybetron's restoration, Teknicus was forced by Affluous to build a device that would divide and segregate the Monsterbots, with Affluous' loyalists becoming "Energon Masters" and those he deemed unworthy being branded as "bugs". Due to becoming one such "bug", and because his usefulness was at an end, Teknicus was thrown into Affluous' dungeon.

Over time, Teknicus would receive cellmates in the form of Energon Masters paralyzed by what Affluous referred to as "the shocks". By the time the Autobot Bumblebee was incarcerated, Teknicus explained the truth behind both the shocks and Affluous' segregation of the Monsterbots. Bumblebee then powered up with multiverse energy to initiate a jailbreak, freeing Teknicus. Arriving at the edge of the city, Bumblebee explained that the Energon Masters and bugs were the same. When Affluous rejected the notion, Teknicus confessed his involvement in Affluous' rise to power. When Bumblebee destroyed the machine, Teknicus transformed into a robot mode similar to the Energon Masters'. The Monsterbots' celebrated their reunion as a beast-mode Affluous fled in defeat.

• Repugnus Revenge (Target-exclusive gift set, 2020)

Part of Target's Cybertronian Villains line of store exclusives, Cyberverse Repugnus Revenge includes three newly-molded Pesticons of a smaller Tiny Turbo Changer-style, one of which is colored greenish-yellow to represent Teknicus.

This set was a center of confusion for many fans, as it showed up in Target stores without a prior announcement from Hasbro. While this is not uncommon for Cyberverse exclusives, all toys in the set are labeled as Decepticons. Oddly accurate to the show, the packaging shows the larger Repugnus in robot mode compared to the smaller Pesticons in beast mode, similar to how the Monsterbots were presented in the cartoon.
