Insectoids (Challenge of the GoBots)

The Insectoids were a mechanical insect race that featured in GoBots Invasion from the 21st Level.

History

The history of the Insectoids is largely unknown except that they are inhabitants of the 21st level, one of the parallel dimensions adjacent to Earth. Xor as well as four drones were ripped from their realm and onto Earth by Dr. Braxis's Interphaser device which was used by the Renegades to bring in vicious creatures to attack the Guardian as well as Earth. Once there, they began their own conquest of the planet.

Background

Their armoured bodies appeared mechanical which were typically dark graish in colour mixed with a lighter grayish tone on their heads, arms as well as their legs. Their eyes were typically yellow in colour and it was where they were capable of shooting out powerful energy beams. Their mouths consisted of mandibles.

Drones

These were the smallest of the Insectoids with stockier bodies, domed heads and reverse jointed legs. Their antenna were very small and appeared as two little stubs on their heads.

A typical Drone tactic was to hop and ram their enemies which was quite a devastatng action though one that could be turned against them through the proper use of energy nets.

Queens

The Queens were taller then the other castes and somewhat more feminine in appearance. They possessed a cowl by their necks making them more regal looking as well as longer antennae. Like the other castes, they were capable of shooting energy blasts from their eyes. In addition, they had psionic powers strong enough to move objects, resist dimensional portals by overloading the generators creating them and even severly damaging a starship the size of Roguestar.

The only known member of this caste encountered was Xor, its unknown if she is the only member of this group or if there are others like her in her home dimension.
