Pilot
The series began with a three-part pilot called "Transform and Roll Out!". Stellar cycles (centuries) after the Autobots won the great war for Cybertron against the Decepticons, an Autobot exploration crew led by Optimus Prime and consisting of Ratchet, Bulkhead, Prowl, Jazz, Ironhide, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, WheelJack, Mirage, Hound, and Bumblebee discover the legendary Allspark buried on an asteroid.

Megatron attacks the Autobot ship and tries to retrieve the Allspark, but when an explosive planted on Megatron by the treacherous Starscream detonates, the ship crashes on Earth. The Autobots go into stasis to survive the crash, while the scattered remains of Megatron are discovered by a human scientist named Isaac Sumdac. Fifty years later, Professor Sumdac is the CEO of a robotics company known as Sumdac Systems, which is based in Central City. Optimus Prime and the Autobots awaken from stasis and defend the people of Detroit from a monster, resulting in them becoming local celebrities. They befriend Sumdac's Teenage daughter Sari and her seven friends, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Sunset Shimmer, who teaches them about Earth customs. At the end of the pilot episodes, Starscream arrives on Earth and tries to take the Allspark for himself, but the Autobots successfully stop him and save the city once again. Now the Autobots must protect both the Allspark and the earths from the Deceptions and other villains.

Main Autobots
Optimus Prime: Optimus Prime is the leader of the Earth-based Autobots and transforms into a red and blue fire truck. He is noble, compassionate and chivalrous, but often doubts his own leadership skills. His weaponry includes a battle axe, retractable grappling hooks and an arm-mounted cannon that shoots fire-dousing foam

Ratchet: Ratchet is an elderly Autobot medic and veteran of the war against the Decepticons. He is grouchy and short-tempered, often having little patience with his younger team mates and initially being hostile towards humans, but he becomes calmer and more tolerant as the series progresses. Ratchet transforms into a white and red ambulance, and is armed with retractable, wrist-mounted magnets that generate electro-magnetic blasts.

Bulkhead: Bulkhead is a large and powerful Autobot who transforms into a green SWAT armoured truck and wields two wrecking balls that are stored in his arms. Despite his size and intimidating appearance, he is a gentle, intelligent and passive Autobot, but can often be clumsy and hot-headed. Ironically (or at least from the Decepticons point of view), he is the most knowledgeable Autobot when it comes to Space Bridges. He's best friends with the Autobot Bumblebee.

Prowl: Prowl is a reclusive Autobot ninja who transforms into a black and gold motorcycle and is trained in the Cybertronian martial art of Circuit-Su. He is fascinated by organic life, and enjoys spending time around plants and animals on Earth. In the series' first two seasons, Prowl's weaponry included a pair of shurikenstored in the wheels of his motorcycle mode, and in the third season he acquires a suit of samurai armour that transforms into a sidecar and features retractable swords, after he finds out Lokdown was the one who murdered Yoketron and took almost all of the protoforms for the Decepticons.

Bumblebee: Bumblebee is the youngest member of Optimus Prime's team. He transforms into a yellow hatchback car and is armed with two electric "stingers" that are stored in his arms. Although they're not shown to be as effective against Decepticons, until they were upgraded at Season 3. He is impulsive, self-confident and takes great pride in his speed, but he also tends to be reckless, hyperactive and obnoxious. He's best friends with the Autobot Bulkhead, and Sari Sumdac.

Jazz:  Jazz is a laid-back member of the Autobot Elite Guard, and transforms into a white and blue sports car. Like Prowl, he was trained in Circuit-Su by Yoketron, and his signature weapons are a pair of nun-chucks. He is Optimus's Second-in Command who loves good music.

Sideswipe: The Autobot pilot who  was once a promising racer who was wanted in half of Cybertron's racing circuits, but his reckless nature cost him his career. so he join The exploration crew o try and redeem himself. He is armed with two retractable Cybertanium arm blades on each of his wrists in robot mode, He transforms into a red street racing-ready sports car.

Sunstreaker: Sideswipe's twin brother who is the rebellious "bad boy" of the group who transforms into a yellow  street racing-ready sports car. Incompetent and sometimes lazy, he often risks missions, even the lives of his own teammates, all for the sake of his boredom. He also takes great pride in his appearance, and becomes enraged whenever his vehicle form's paint job is damaged in any way. He is also armed with welding torches that double as flame-throwers.

Ironhide: Ironhide is an Autobot security officer who transforms into a red 4x4 pickup trick  and has the unique ability to change his exterior body armor into a dense, near-indestructible alloy, in a similar fashion to the Marvel Comics superhero Colossus. He is also a likable, fun-loving young Autobot, whose jokes tend to get a little crude.

Mirage: The Autobot's Master Spy who has the ability to turn invisible. he was one of the planet’s elite upper class, preferring to spend his days hunting turbo-foxes instead of involving himself in conflict. When that became unavoidable, Mirage enlisted with the Autobot forces, although he is often unsure about his motivations for doing so, which leaves his fellow Autobots finding it hard to trust him – a problem not helped by the fact that Mirage can rarely hide that he is often unwilling to fight directly, or his contempt for the “commoners” he is now forced to interact with. He has no lost love for Earth, and would happily return to his old life on Cybertron if he could.

It is ironic that, given his unwillingness to fight, Mirage is a superior hand-to-hand combatant, and a skilled sharpshooter, having honed his talents hunting game on Cybertron. He is armed with a rifle which fires explosive, armor-piercing darts, but the most important piece of his arsenal in his function as a spy is his shoulder-mounted electro-disruptor, which can bend photons to make Mirage invisible, or appear to be where he is not, or even alter his physical appearance, hence his name. alternate mode is that of a Formula One racing car

Hound: The Autobots's navigator who sees humankind as beautiful and wishes he could interact with their ecosphere the same way they do, to feel what they feel and to see what they see.

He treasures his job as an Autobot scout, making good use of his ability to project holograms for added disguise. He uses this opportunity to explore the breathtaking caverns and mountainous expanses that Earth provides. He's a meek, benevolent soul, even compared to his fellow Autobots. He is armed with chainsaw weapons and His  alternate mode is that of a 4X4 military jeep.

Wheeljack: An accomplished Autobot scientist and inventor, Wheeljack will hook you up with some new weapon or gizmo that he just invented. There's no problem too big or too small that Wheeljack isn't willing to tackle, be it celestial mechanics or inventing potent new anti-Decepticon combat weapons. he's not much a fighter, and prefers to leave the violence to his teammates. His alternate mode is that of a Lancia Stratos.

Elite Guard
Ultra Magnus: Ultra Magnus is the supreme commander of the Autobots and leader of the Autobot Elite Guard. He transforms into a blue and white Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck, and wields the Magnus Hammer, an enormous hammer passed down to each new Magnus and capable of summoning lightning. Ultra Magnus was trained in learning how to use melee weapons by Yoketron.

Sentinel Prime: Sentinel Prime is Ultra Magnus's second in command and Optimus Prime's former friend and rival. He transforms into a blue and orange pick-up truck fitted with a snowplough, and is armed with a lance and shield that can project force-fields.

Dai Atlas: a war hero, pure and simple. A former fencing student of Sensei Yoketron, general of the Cybertron Elite Guard and the right hand of Ultra Magnus himself, he has achieved more in his life than one could really ask from a single 'bot.

Arcee:  Arcee is an intelligence officer for Cybertron Intelligence and former teacher.

In the pilot episode "Transform and Roll Out! Part 1", an explosive planted by Starscream tries to destroy Megatron, and his remains fall to Earth, where they are discovered by Isaac Sumadc. His disembodied head remains in Sumdac's laboratory for fifty years, until energy from Sari's Allspark key accidentally brings him back to life. Megatron then tricks Sumdac into thinking he is an Autobot and manipulates him into building a new body for him, which is completed in the season 1 finale.

Blitzwing: Blitzwing is a triple-changer, able to transform into two different vehicle modes, a fighter jet and an assault tank. He also has a split personality represented by three different faces which spin around in a similar fashion to the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe character Man-E-Faces. They include a red face who is always angry, a blue face who is calm, rational and hardly ever expresses emotion, and a black face who is comically insane. All three of Blitzwing's faces speak in a stereotypical German accent with the angry face having similar speech patterns to Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Lugnut: Lugnut is a large, hulking Decepticon who transforms into a purple military bomber plane and has immense physical strength. He is fanatically devoted to Megatron, agreeing with everything he says and regarding any Decepticon who questions or doubts him as a traitor. He is shown to be enemies with the Autobot Bulkhead.

Starscream: Starscream transforms into a red and silver harrier jet, and like most incarnations of the character he is a scheming traitor whose main goal in life is to overthrow Megatron as the Decepticon leader. In the Pilot episode "Transform and Roll Out!, Part 1" Starscream attempts to kill Megatron by planting an explosive on his back. When Megatron returns in his upgraded body, he kills Starscream for his treason. A scattered shard of the Allspark later brings Starscream back to life.

Oil Slick: Oil Slick uses chemical weapons such as acids, toxins and poisons, and specialises in vehicular combat (attacking a foe while they are in vehicle mode). He transforms into a black Cybertronian motorcycle,his Earth vehicle mode is a green low-riding motorcycle decorated with a ram skull in place of the headlight.

Skywarp: He is a master of sneak attacks, using his teleportation abilities to cause mayhem amongst the Autobots—and his fellow Decepticons when playing malicious pranks. However, his arrogance and relative lack of intelligence means he needs to be constantly monitored by his superiors Megatron and Starscream, or else he would be useless. He transforms into a f-117a nighthawk stealth fighter.

Thundercracker: Decepticon's mechanic who supports his team with techo needs, he has the ability to create sonic booms that can cause an object to explode. He transforms into a A-10 Thunderbolt II.
