The name or term "Insecticon" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Insecticon (disambiguation).
Insecticons are Decepticons from the live-action movie continuity family.
Lord of the Flies.

The Insecticons are robotic insects, capable of implanting cerebro-strips into the heads of victims; this allows the Insecticon's master to mentally manipulate and control the victims remotely. Whether the Insecticons are sentient or merely a drone race is unknown.

Robot insects that brainwash people; where'd they get a weird idea like that from, eh?

Reason: Made obsolete
The following events occur in a splinter timeline where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.

While Megatron was in charge, Starscream quietly had his Insecticons implant cerebro-strips in multiple humans, all for the day when he would gain command. Shockingly, that day actually arrived, and Starscream now has an army of potential human servants, including the 44th President of the United States. He stated this was all "courtesy of my Insecticons!", but as the room was empty at the time, it is unknown to whom he was talking.

He can see us, can't he? Transformers Comic issue 15

Heeelp Meee!

While Sam Witwicky and Mikaela Banes were hiding from the Decepticons in Egypt, a tiny creepy-crawly infiltrator flew in through a hole in the wall. It was discovered by Sam, who pulled it apart with his fingers, but not before it transmitted the humans' position to the Decepticons. Revenge of the Fallen

Toy bios

In robot mode, Insecticon is tough and fearsome in battle. In his insect alternate mode, he is quite fast.[1]

Ravage didn't want to take on Bumblebee alone again, so he asked Insecticon for help. Since Bumblebee annoyed Insecticon, it was his pleasure to help. The two encircled Bumblebee, stalking through the gloom while Bumblebee prepared for battle.[2]

  • Insecticon (Scout, 2010)
    • Japanese ID number: AA-04
Insecticon is an insectoid robot, who turns into a robotic insect. Surprise! He has a relatively basic transformation compared to other Scouts, but because all 6 of his arms and legs have at least 3 points of articulation, he ends up with 30 points of articulation. You heard right.
The TakaraTomy Autobot Alliance release of Insecticon features considerable changes to his plastic colours: Where Hasbro's release featured a olive-coloured base colour with light grey joints and translucent blue wings, TakaraTomy's features a dark brown base with lavender joints and clear white wings.

Notes

  • According to concept art by Massive Black, the Insecticons were to have combined into a single monstrous, six-legged robot.[3]
  • In the same post, concept art showed the microcons were also described as being insects.
