Acolyte of Unicron

Unicron cultists are brainwashed Transformers from the Generation 1 continuity family.

This article was created just to put this panel up.

Before Primus hid himself away in slumber, Unicron utilized the mental link the two shared to program mental commands into weakminded Transformers. These sleeper agents would activate, assemble, and assassinate the leader of Primus' armies when the time came for Primus and Unicron's reckoning.

They wear Unicron hats.

Trivia

• Design elements of the Unicron cultists were based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which was kicking Transformers' butt in the toy aisles at the time. The cultists (sometimes) had two fingers and a thumb on each hand, two toes on each foot, and each carried either a sai-like weapon or a katana. However, their battlecry was "DEATH!", not "Cowabunga." This would not be the only time that hordes of disposable robots in Transformers would have elements based on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
