TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS on TERRORCONS 

I always liked Blot's motto: "I stink, so I exist"

“Say the line, Bart” “Until he was offlined by a cosmically empowered Starscream.”

The zombie "terrorcons" from Transformers Prime should have been called Necrocons

The zombie versions helped provide one of the funniest moments in the whole franchise: Knock-Out: Aim for the head! Starscream: WHAT!? HOW DO YOU KNOW??!! Knock-Out: I have seen human horror films. Starscream: *whaat face* Knock-Out: AT DRIVE-IN THEATERS!

Personally me favorite terrorcon is rippersnapper because its a SHARK WITH LEGS

And now they’re going to be introduced into the live-action movies next year! Can’t wait to see them.

When Prime and Ratchet fought the zombies, this came to mind, "suddenley Resident Evil"

I always had a soft spot for these guys. I always loved Call of the Primitives because it gave the Terrorcons and Predacons something to do. There were also Horrorcons, who seem to have sadly been forgotten. Titans Return would have been a great time for them to return, but we only got that mini Apeface.

I agree that G1 Terrorcons are cool. So looking forward to get POTP Terrorcons.

TF Primes Terrorcons were awesome. The idea of robot zombies was really interesting.

Then they made it to the big screen in 2023’s film: Rise of the Beast. In the movie, the Terrorcons are the enforcers of the monster planet, Unicron. With Scourge as team leader, Nightbird as swift assassin, and Battletrap, a brutal bruiser.

Abominus was my first full combiner as a child. I look forward to Abominus being my first modern combiner as well.

I'm glad they bring Terrorcons back in Power of Prime their one of my favourite Combiners I do want to see their origin story.

I'm honestly in favor of the Terrorcons crew being Predacons from Transformers Prime 7:26 . The more prehistoric dragon breast from Cybertronian the better.

I'm really liking the G1 Terrorcons, they look amazing.

That's really clever of the Energon comic to reconcile the difference between their individual Terrorcons with the cartoon's Terrorcon drones by giving the Terrorcons a clone army. Wonder if they were inspired by Beast Machines. Great overview! I actually didn't even realize that the Terrorcons had _any_ connections between continuities.

gonna have to do an update to this after Rise of the Beasts comes out.... with that scary intro, of course.

The G1 Terrorcons will always be a favorite because I love kaiju like monsters and they were the only complete combiner team I had as a kid.

Yeah I can see why they're adapting some Decepticons into Terrorcons. Scourge and Nightbird are lot more intimidating than Hun Garr or Cutthroat or Rippersnapper

They will be shinning in the big screen soon. :)

I expect Chris will update this video after Rise Of The Beasts comes out and features the Terrorcon faction. Can't wait!

I never really cared much for the terrorcons but I can see how they could be utilized for some cool story telling

Here after the ‘Rise of The Beasts’ reveal, to brush up on my Terrorcon knowledge

Am I the only oone who thinks that their combined form should be something different than a humannoid?

Hun-Grrr is a badass in the old Devil's Due Transformers/GI Joe comics, one of the few places he got to shine a little bit. He's featured prominently (at least for the terrorcons) in Volume 3 with the whole Serpent O.R. story arc.

I do like the originals, but the Terrorcon drones of Energon hold a special spot in my Spark. Although I only have Divebomb!

SPOOPY SCARY TERRORCONS

Had to quickly come to refresh what terroricons were again

The Terrorcons are one of those groups I *wish* some form of fiction would give some expansion on. The G1 version, I mean.

The POTP Terrorcons are the best versions of them we'll ever get.

I would like to see Hasbro make upgraded versions of the Energon Terrorcons into a combiner team. They would have to be deluxe class and They have to do Scorponok to!

The jury is still out on whether Sinnertwin or Slayride is the most badass Transformer character name.

With the new rise of the beast movie, I feel like at this point any transformer that is connected to unicron or is a herald of unicron should be called a Terracon and the original G1 terrorcons should be called the Horrorcons. Because at this point, the G1 Horicon’s are basically mercenary’s. At this point I think the name fits more with the G1 terrorcons. because terrorcons has been mostly used as a term for any transformer connected to unicron.

I have always liked Rippersnapper, he was my first Terrorcon so he has a special place in my heart. For some reason I have always liked the team, perhaps because of the "way out of the box" designs. As always very awesome video and I can't wait till the next one.

I just finished collecting the power of the primes terrorcons and I got to say they are AWESOME! the G1 terrorcons was and still are my favorite G1 decepticon combiner team.

The terrocons from g1 is my favorite out of all the other terrocons In the other transformers series. And I always wonder, why Abominus isn't like Predaking that is tough. Because computron, and other combiners take him on. They are able to beat him.

i always liked Blot. something about a robot with bad hygiene

Terrorcon Cliffjumper has to be my favourite because he was the first version I was introduced to.

I loved how in the latest Legends comics they depicted the G1 Terrorcons as actually being spies from the Quintessons. With Infernocus who worked for Quintessa being a remold of Prime's Abomynus; and the Energon Terrorcons who worked for Alpha Q, it makes it feel like things have gone full circle.

"Only time will tell..." Well, it's been nearly two years since then, so it's looking like a no. Late-run IDW was really bad at doing anything with certain characters except as canon fodder.

I actually have rippersnapper and Sinnertwin from the power of the primes toy line!!

This video needs an update now that Transformers Rise of the Beasts is coming out later this year.

You know you're the best combiner when you've got twin dragon jaws for knees. Also, Hun-Grrr is one of the G1 figures that's aged the best imo.

The Terrorcons had a certain coolness factor to them. I have a complete G1 set and 2 Power Of The Primes figures -- Rippersnapper and Hun-Gurrr.

I wrote a fanfiction about 5 Autobot OC's that I made up, 1 of them being an inspiration of a custom CW figure I did, that could combine into a gestalt. In the fanfic I did two chapters only focusing on the Decepticons, mainly Megatron. He and four others: Barricade, Starscream, Soundwave and Full-Tilt (Trypticon car toy if anyone remembers him) traveled to the planet Animatros that was the home of the Maximal and Predacon Transformers since they are animal based. And I sort of did a kind of backstory of the Terrorcons were once Predacons and not Decepticons. Here they protected an ancient temple and battled Megatron to which he defeated them and swore their allegiance to him. And in the progress Megatron changed their Predacon insignias to Decepticon insignias by putting purple glowing orbs that were emitting from his hands (much like how Megatron tried to with Inferno in the Energon cartoon). Then they would serve him loyally and they fought off other Maximals and Predacons when Megatron and his three lackeys (Full-Tilt guarded the ship) were in the temple and then Scourge (Cybertron Scourge) appeared but was shocked to see that his own Predacon followers had turned on him and his people (here in the fanfic I sort of made him the leader of the Predacons and the Maximals....sounds stupid, I know, but he was the leader in the Cybertron cartoon of the Jungle Planet and its civilisation) and just wiped the floor of Scourge's bodyguards Undermine, Brimstone and Wreckloose (he did not appear in the show but I gave him the chance of serving him as one of his bodyguards) while Megatron wiped the floor of Scourge. I know it sounds stupid with them being Predacons from the beginning before becoming Decepticons but I just let my stupid imagination take over lmfao

Thought my phone was ringing. That opening tune is my ringtone.

Energon terrorcons designs look alot like zoids

i am glad that the Power of the Primes toy line brought back the Terrorcons since i wanted them for my collection by did not want to hunt down the original one so i got the newer versions instead. I love how the power of the primes hun-gurr can hold the terrorcon enigma in beast mode vs how grimlock can not from the same toy line.

The Prime Terroncons are my personal favorites. I mean, zombie/vampire robots? Seriously. "Oh, come on! You gotta admit this is cool!"

In 2023's rise of the beasts, the terrorcons made their debut in live action but with a different roster consisting of scourge, battletrap, and nightbird. The 3 of them together were very vicious, merciless, and formidable adversaries by movie standards.

I remember having the transformers prime versions of the terrorists and they were some of my favorite figures, and I think they're very underrated. Maybe one day we can see a properly remade version of the team, kind of like with what they did with menasor in the legacy toyline

Cool video. Hopefully we'll get a video on the Technobots in the near future as well.

i love this series so much, can't wait for the next episode!

"But it turned out we were DEAD wrong..." Heh! Funny pun! Was it intended?

the original terrorcons are great and it's sad that no one cares about them but tbh I want to see more of the prime terrorcons, a franchise can never have enough robot zombies if you ask me

Am I the only one who actually prefers the Prime version as zombies

4:24 now to think about it. Energon Terrorcons have ability like Hun-Gurrr. Able to convert material in their digestive system.

I love the terrocons (G1) more than most decepticons

I prefer the terrocons being resurrected mindless transformers lead by the sentient one scorponok it suits their scary name

If anyone's heard, the terrorcons will be the main enemy in the new transformers movie.

I can hear Hun-Gurr saying to the other Terrorcobs "TERRORCONS!! FORM ABOMINOUS!!"

Just going off the cartoon, I kinda read the G1 Terrorcons as bounty hunters. No real allegiance, just kind of minions for the antagonists that get paid by the hour.

So cosmically powered Starscream has offlined yet another victims. Good.

I can't be the only one that was reminded of the 'Prime' Terrorcons when I saw the Sparkless in the WFC: Siege cartoon.

I can’t wait for the original terrorcons to return but I think my favourite are the transformers prime terracons

Are you planning any new The Basics episodes? I was waiting for Unicron Trilogy/Singularity really but this is good too

I owned Cutthroat and Sinner Twin both pretty great loved the colour schemes for the Terrorcons would love some good modern remodels

The aligned continuity Terrorcons both Resident Evil style and reanimated are horrificly horrifying

The Prime Terrorcons/Predacons were featured in the japanese-only the Transformers Prime sequel, called Transfrmers Go

Part of me wants to see how the G1 Terrorcons would react to the zombie Terrorcons of Prime swarming them. Have it be potentially animated and that would make for a cool “What if?”

I was never a fan of the Original G1 Terrorcons, I rathered Computron by far. I found the Energon terrocons concept pretty interesting.

Whatever version appears in the Rise of the Beasts movie, I hope Abominus appears.

I like the Energon transformers terrorcons and also the old and reformed characters Terrorcons 🤩😘😄❤️😎😍🥰😀❤️🥰😘😍🦖🐲🐉🦕🦟🦅

Great video Chris, Happy Halloween!

I hope that my Transformers fanfic will give the Generation 1 Terrorcons a bit more playtime.

I had Hun-Grrr at one point. I was impressed by how he was used in the G1 cartoon!

0:17 Wat R U, MEGATRON? (because The Laugh)

Awww! I loved those guys. I had all but one. I don’t remember which one though, (it wasn’t Hung-Garrr of course, who could forget that cool looking toy).

Man the prime breakdown horror episode scared me so much it took 2 years after the show ended to watch it again

6:17 More like Zombicons.

Came back here for 2020(and in October!) and man, now we are getting a Generations Select Abominus!

And they will make a movie reboot with terrorcons

I think they should have just given the zombies a different name in the show.

That intro was too spoopy to be narrated

0:04-0:29 *Cut! CUT!* That intro killed me man. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wow, so good!

I think a good way to tie the G1 terrorcons with the Prime zombies would be to make them re-animated predacons, like the ones seen in the Movie-length finale. They already are fantastical creatures in alternate mode, AND actual predacons in the Beast Hunters toy-line, so there wouldn't be any issue! Maybe even add some mystical power to turn them in a combiner, even.

A new form a Terrorons would appear in Rise of the Beasts.

I think the og terrorcons could be a creation of shockwave while he is experementing with dark energon and spare parts basically making them a Cybertronian Frankenstein jr if you don't know Frankenstein was the name of the professor so the monster should be called Frankenstein jr

0:49 Yeah all of them!!!

oh my god, the more of these videos i watch, the more money i realize i'm going to be spending on Power of the Primes

Got Hungrr as a Christmas present and never knew who he was til today.

im actually developing a fan fiction for the team, in which the original Terrorcons team where created in a similar manor as the Dino bots (G1 or Fall of Cybertron versions) however the main difference is that the alternate forms where taken from the Apex Predators of multiple different planets

The music is crackin in this video!!

In the newly released rise of the beast movie the terrocons are the servants of unicron powered by dark anergy that makes them invincible 😈👿

Great video! I was always a fan of the G1 team, and I'm very excited for the new toys!

I hope & pray that Weijiang makes oversized versions of the new Hasbro toys.

And there's a sixth member of Terrorcons from PotP toyline. It was Cindersaur, a redeco and slight remold of Slash

The new kind of Terrorcons are from Transformers Rise Of The Beasts.

I like the version where they are metal zombie-vampires. They look cool.
