Computron's minions are robots that work for and strongly resemble Computron.
Appearance
Computron's minions in Ultimate Alien
In Ultimate Alien, Computron's minions resemble Computron, differing only in that they are blue instead of red.
In Omniverse, the minions are now much more like Computron in that they are red instead of blue and are bigger, nearly Computron's size.
Their eyes remain red, but they only glow when they are about to utilize their lasers.
History
They are extremely loyal to Computron, as seen in Girl Trouble, when they tried to set off a bomb to avenge Computron's death.
They were trapped in Dimension 12 along with Computron by Captain Nemesis until he released them.
In Omniverse, they are later reprogrammed to serve Billy Billions, though he later lost control. This caused them to revert back to their original programming to destroy all organic life, but they were eventually banished back to Dimension 12.
Powers and Abilities
They have long arms with claws which they can turn in to saws capable of cutting through buildings. Each can shoot lasers out of its eye.
In the Omniverse series, they have an additional energy cannon mounted on their torsos. Their armored forms can withstand heavy impacts and are quite agile for their size.
Weaknesses
The robots can be overridden and controlled as displayed by Billy Billions. Their single-minded goal to destroy all organic life makes them relatively easy to outmaneuver and outsmart.
