Terrorcons - Transformers: Generation 1

Transformers: Generation 1

The Terrorcons are a group of five Decepticons under the command of Galvatron. The Terrorcons transform into nightmarish monsters and combine to form the "combiner" Abominus. Their counterparts and rivals are the Technobots. Unlike the other Autobot or Decepticon combiners, Abominus has a time limitation on his combined form as a means of control (as this was only seen when the Terrorcons were working for the Quintessons, this may not be a permanent feature). Abominus is the strongest of the combiners but also one of the slowest and least intelligent (lacking Predaking's agility, Computron's intelligence and Menasor's berserked speed); in fact apart from grunts and growls he has only ever spoken once in the U.S. animated series: "Computron think too much!". His tech spec intelligence rating of 1 is the lowest of any combiner.

The five Terrorcons are:

• ^1 The correct spelling of the Terrorcon leader's name is controversial. Various places in the toyline itself and the accompanying comic book have included such spellings as Hun-Gurrr, Hun-Grrr, Hun-Gurr, Hun-Grr and even Huh-Grr.
