Description
Robots that turn into cars, airplanes, animals, alien technology, and other things (such as microscopes, radios, and even giant metallic hands) battle each other. There are always two factions of them, the Autobots and Decepticons, though in Beast Wars, there were Maximals and Predacons, who battle for either war or peace. Robots in Disguise pits Autobots against Predacons, with the Decepticons being a subgroup of the Predacons. Their battle extends from their home planet of Cybertron to Earth, sometimes across the galaxy. It was based off of Japanese toys called "Diaclone" and "Micro Change", the former being about toy robots piloted by humans, and the latter was robots transforming into life-sized replicas of objects (i.e. guns, toy cars, cassettes).

- Bumblebee - I wanna be the guy too!
- Jazz - One of the only black Transformers, along with Blaster and some other guys.
- Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime - The next in line for the Primes. Nobody likes him.

Decepticons
- Megatron/Galvatron - Megatron is almost always the main villain of the piece.
- Soundwave - The emotionless tape deck with the cool voice.
- Starscream - Wants to be leader of the Decepticons, and is in no way subtle about it. Has a large number of recolours.
- Cyclonus - One of Megatron's few loyal Decepticons.

- Rumble - This small, red Transformer is one of Soundwave's subordinates. Turns into a cassette.

- Shockwave - As cool as a purple guy can get.

- Thunderblast - A slut.
Other Transformers
- Unicron - The irony of a planet-sized eating machine being played by Orson Welles wasn't lost on anybody. Basically the Transformers' version of Satan.
- Primus - The God of all Transformers. He also likes the band named Primus.
- The Fallen - A giant Transformer that's always on fire. He actually has very good balance.
- Sideways - A mysterious guy who works for Unicron. In Revenge of The Fallen, he was a Decepticon with no connection to Unicron.

Humans
- Spike and Sparkplug, AKA some men nobody cares about.
- Darth Vader - A Sith Lord who transforms into a gigantic moon, which we will call a "death star".
- Koji Onishi - Some Digimon reject with the guts to call Megatron "a loser".
- Sam Witwicky - Also known as eBay username ladiesman217.
- Mikaela - Sam's girlfriend. She has lots of personality and does more than provide fanservice, really. :D

- Nicholas - An agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who works with his pal Dum Dum.

Further Information
- Despite the fact that there are female and child Transformers, Devastator is the only Transformer with a scrotum. Blame Michael Bay.
- Transformers has actually had a pretty all-star cast. Case in point: Orson Welles, Leonard Nimoy, Eric Idle, Judd Nelson, Robert Stack, Lionel Stander, "Weird Al" Yankovic (who performed the song Dare to be Stupid in the G1 movie in addition to voicing the Transformers Animated incarnation of Wreck-Gar), Megan Fox, George Takei, John Turturro, Tyrese Gibson, and Scatman Crothers have appeared in the franchise at one point or another. In particular, the Transformers 1980's movie was the final role for both Scatman Crothers and Orson Welles. Not bad for a toy commercial.
- Optimus Prime and Megatron appeared in the GameCube fighting game DreamMix TV: World Fighters, which also included Solid Snake, Simon Belmont and Bomberman (among others) in its playable roster.
- Vince DiCola, who composed the score for The Transformers: The Movie, also worked on the score for Rocky IV. In fact, the song used for representing Unicron was also used for representing Ivan Drago, who was Rocky's enemy at the time.
- Some of these guys have very unfortunate names. Yeah...
