G1 Transformers
Tornedron was created by Primacron by experimentation. First, he fed it fire, then an Energon cube, resulting to make Tornedron growing in size & power. Primacron then ordered it to fly across the universe & devour anything on its path. It first ate a comet, turning it into a lump of coal. It then attacks Cybertron & drains the planet of its energy, as well as the Autobots residing & guarding the area. Primacron is impressed by his creation's success, claiming it has succeeded its predecessor Unicron.
It then headed towards the moon, where the Autobot forces of Rodimus Prime & Decepticon forces of Galvatron are fighting but were left confused after the animal-themed Transformers of both sides, known as "Primitives", left the scenery due hearing a call from a mysterious voice. Tornedron drained the energy of both sides, excluding the Primitives, who have managed to left.
The Oracle, Primacron's ex-assistant, now a disembodied energy, learns of this & gathered all of the Primitives to stop it. Upon their arrival on an empty planet, the Oracle gathers them & told them about Primacron & how his new creation must be stopped.
Tornedron soon arrived on the planet & drained Trypticon, crushing Grimlock in the process. Sky Lynx attacks to avenge him, but to no avail as his weapons are useless & ended up getting drained as well. Slag then leads the remaining Dinobots while the Predacons, Terrorcons & Mini-Casettes split up to confuse it, as well as ambushing it. However, it split into four & drained the Primitives one by one, while taking various forms. It then headed back to Primacron for his success. Unknown to Tornedron, Grimlock had actually survived being crushed & decided to avenge his Dinobot comrades as well as the other Primitives, Autobots & various lifeforms.
Upon returning, Tornedron turned against its master & creator & decided to drain him as well. Primacron panics & tried his best regain control of Tornedron, only to fail. Grimlock however, arrives & throws the reverse switch, reversing Tornedron's energy polarity, killing it in the process & returning life on the galaxy. To make sure Primacron won't cause anymore trouble, Grimlock destroys his computer in celebration & claimed it is the "smartest" thing he's ever done.
Trivia
- Despite being a one-shot minor villain, Tornedron is considered as one of the worst & most dangerous Transformers villains ever known, as it is known to be a far greater threat than its predecessor Unicron.
