Allicon

Allicons are a race of alligator-like mechanoids who are often affiliated with the Quintessons. "Devour, enforce, obey."

- The Allicons' motto

Powers
Like other Cybertronian lifeforms, Allicons can transform from humanoid robots into metallic bipedal animals that are vaguely crocodilian in appearance.

Much like Earth alligators, Allicons are capable of breathing underwater.

Allicons can devour a full-sized robot in a few seconds with their razor-sharp teeth and claws.

Allicons are slightly smarter than Sharkticons to the point of being capable of speech on a regular basis.

Weaknesses
Individual Allicons are not especially durable, as they can be easily defeated by well-trained Cybertronians.

Allicons are programmed to malfunction if they resist direct orders from Quintessons.

Behavior
Much like the Sharkticons, the Allicons serve the Quintessons as enforcer-units. They are often used as guards for more important members of the latter race.

Allicons have been pretty thoroughly stripped of their free will due to the Quintessons' altercation of their programming. As such, an Allicon's primary objective is to punish the judged.

Trivia

 * The script for The Transformers: The Movie originally called for the Allicons' scene to feature Sharkticons. However, this species was erroneously created during production. The original concept was retained in the film's first comic adaptation, which features Sharkticons in place of the Allicons.
 * The Allicons went unnamed for many years, with the script for the Transformers Generation 1 cartoon episode "The Killing Jar" referring to them as "Quintesson Guards". The name "Allicon" was generally used by fans online before eventually being canonized in Dreamwave's 2004 Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye comic series.
 * The Allicons did not receive any merchandise until the War for Cybertron: Earthrise toyline in 2020.
