Heroes wouldn't be necessary if there are no Villains. Though they cause great havoc and trouble for the good guys, their contributions to make Transformer such a popular icon couldn't be measured. Of course, who will make the Autobots act as heroic if there are no wrongdoers to be sorted out?
1. Megatron
The exact opposite of Optimus Prime, Megatron was highly aggressive and a megalomaniac. According to his original tech spec, Megatron has no known weaknesses but this does not spare him from defeat at the hands of his enemies. For all his famed battle prowess and tactical ability, Megatron's overconfidence often causes him to overlook some vital strategic detail and lose the battle.
2. Starscream
It is a known fact that Starscream has the dearest ambition of overthrowing Megatron of the leadership of the Decepticons and due to his treachery and personality; he has become a fan favorite and one of the popular Transformer characters ever. Starscream believes that the Decepticons should rely more on guile and speed rather than brute destructive force to defeat the Autobots.
3. Scorponok
Scorponok’s primary alternate mode is the giant scorpion with claws that can crush mountains and a tail that fires deadly electric blasts. He likes causing destruction and misery and takes great pleasure in inflicting suffering as much as he could. His base mode is the Fasttrack, an armoured vehicle that can transform into a robot mode armed with twin photon cannons.
4. Shockwave
As the Decepticons' military operations commander, Shockwave's power is second only to
Megatron's. His actions are carried out with the cold, brutal clarity and perfection one would expect of a purely mechanical being — his way is not that of blood lust, like so many other Decepticons, but rather that of a scientist attempting to solve a problem.

The Most Popular Transformers
If the girls have their Barbie, then the boy's ultimate version will be the Transformers. I remember the glorifying feeling these toys have on me every time I see them in my room or even just in cartoons. Seldom will you meet people who don't know about them and the ever-fascinating characters.
1. Optimus Prime
He is depicted as a heroic, brave and compassionate character and has a strong sense of justice and righteousness. The original Optimus Prime transforms into a cab over semi truck then truck's cab transforms into the robot mode of Prime himself, equipped with vast strength and armed with a laser rifle. Did you know that he's name in Japan is Convoy?
2. Bumblebee
Of all the Transformers characters, Bumblebee is my favorite. Not only that he is adorably bad-ass but his prowess in Espionage proves to be perfect to his size (compared to other big transformers). Of all his transforming modes, The Volkswagen Beetle has been the most popular and my personal favorite too. And who could forget that unforgettable motto of his: "The least likely can be the most dangerous."
3. Megatron
He is the worst guy of all in the Transformer universe. He is very powerful and utterly ruthless. His imposing robot form is dominated by his primary weapon - his arm-mounted fusion cannon and is best seen in his Jet form that does not only look slick but poses great danger because of speed and weapon's attack capabilities up in the air.
4. Wheeljack
Wheeljack is the scientist of the Autobot forces. The weapons and gadgets, while invented for the benefit the Autobot, often bring great danger and introduce unpredictable elements into critical situations. Wheeljack is the most accomplished driver (while in car mode) among the Autobots and enjoys displaying his skill level through various road stunts.
5. Jazz
Jazz is the cool, stylish, and very competent member of the Autobots. He is the head of Special Operations and assigns the most dangerous assignments to himself. Jazz's can adapt pretty well to whatever environment he finds himself in for he effortlessly tunes in to the local culture, assimilating and improvising, and making creative command decisions.
