Antillans were a humanoid species from the planet Antilla.
Biology[]
An erroneous account depicts Antillans was humanoids with two-fingered hands and bulky red armor.
Culture and society[]
The Antillan had developed a technologically advanced civilization.
History[]
Some twelve million years ago, Antilla was invaded by Onyx Prime, who sought to expand the Cybertronian aegis to further his complicated goals by targeting the planet for Cybertronian conquest. Though the Antillans fought back, they were unable to match the power of Omega Supreme and his Omega Sentinels.
Realizing that the conflict would only end in the extinction of their species, a desperate scientist that had been bereaved by the loss of his family constructed a doomsday weapon that would destroy all life on Antilla, organic and mechanical alike. When the scientist activated his weapon, it killed everything on the planet and corrupted whatever organic life that survived into the monstrous Dire Wraths.
Horrified by what his fellow Primes had wrought, Alpha Trion chose to record a different version of events into the history books. These books would claim that the Cybertronians had only sought to "enlighten" the inhabitants of Antilla only for the Antillans to fire the first shots in the war.
The Antillians' legacy would live on, after a fashion. Millions of years later, Antilla would be warped and reshaped into the planet-eating Unicron. Upon consuming the Cybertronian Titan Nemesis, Unicron adopted the countenance of an Antillan as his new robot mode.
Notes[]
- The Transformers: Optimus Prime comic presents a rather different appearance for the Antillan soldiers than what is shown in Transformers: Unicron.
