Antilian bumble-puppy

Antillian bumble-puppies are an adorable life-form native to the Autobot colony world Antilla. Autobots are apparently very fond of them.

Fiction

Techspecs

The profile for Thunderblast remarks that Autobots would rather shoot at Antillian bumble-puppies than at a beautiful female.

Mini Mayhem comics

Jazz reminds Bumblebee that no matter how cool The Fallen may seem, he once shot down a ship filled with Antillian bumble-puppies, and that means he's not an appropriate role model.

Notes

• The presence of bumble-puppies in Transformers fiction is an homage to Aldous Huxley's novel "Brave New World," where the creatures were used by social engineers to properly condition (and brainwash) children.
