Important Characters

 

The Film, ‘The Transformers’ happened in the year 2005. The film was made as the continuation of the 1984 Transformers where the initial creation of the Optimus Prime came to be. It is all about the life in a distant planet by the name Cybertron; a planet inhabited by robots that could transform into anything. There are two main characters in the story; Optimus Prime and Megartron. The two have become inevitable to the fans of the series.

Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime is known as the leader of Autobots across the globe in the Transformers franchise. His basic portrayal is that of a robot in primary vehicle mode of a semi truck. His first appearance was in the 1984’s animation series by the name Transformers in the first episodes. He later got into full action in the Transformers, a 2007 film which was directed by Michael Bay. He is depicted yet as a semi truck. However, unlike the animated series, he is more of a cab design truck and there is no trailer when he transforms to the Truck mode. He is the favorite of the Transformers fans.

Megatron

The second most favorite character, only this time in the opposing side is the Megatron. He is the Decepticon leader who has succeeded in the destruction of the Autobot resistance. He lacks the love, compassion and mercy and is ruthless and determined to achieve his goal at all costs. His equal is Optimus Prime, the character he almost killed when he was young in a fuel storage attack. The name was then Orion Pax but now Optimus Prime. The strengths of Megatron lie in his ability to convert any matter into large amounts of explosive with nuclear energy.

 

The two are rivals and inevitable characters in Transformers. They are the main characters who make the storyline unpredictable and intriguing with every turn.
