These were a very different enemy from the aggressive Decepticons. They manipulate the Decepticons to attack the Autobots as well as even blow up their own planet as a calculated manoeuvre. The 5 parter has the Quintesons as the true antagonists as in “ The Five Faces of Darkness“. While Hot Rod suspects the Decepticons (natural mistake, been at war for millions of years) at the end of the episode they find the Decepticons were in no condition to have done so while the kidnapped people find their real abductors, the Quintessons. During the Space Olympics meant to show this new age of peace post millions of years of war with the Decepticons, Kup Ultramagnus and Spike Witwicky are captured by a group of Sharkticons. It was the 5 part opener for season 3 that the Quintessons importance to Generation One came about. Original plans had them working with or worshiping Unicron but these were never introduced in the plot. Now in the movie no explanation for this race was ever given. It was a rather diverse race but the 5 faced judges was just such a good design that it’s the one we all think about. While the Judge is accepted as the most iconic form of Quintesson there were indeed many others like the Prosecutors, Scientists even some Humanoid ones. These courts were presided over by a Judge, a tear drop like alien with 5 faces it could rotate around representing Death, Rage, Laughter, Bitterness and Doubt. These strange squid like aliens continuously putting any life form they find (especially robotic ones) on trial where they inevitably found them innocent… then dropped them in a pit to be killed by Sharkticons (who were more like piranha). While retreating from Galvatron and his Unicron empowered Decepticons Hotrod’s ship was damaged and crash landed on the planet Quintessa home of the Quintessons and various robotic life that too could Transform (the Quintessons’ couldn’t) namely the Alicons and Sharkticons. The Quintessons first appeared in Transformers The Movie 1986. So today we are going to look to the other villain faction in the franchise, The Quintessons. Even if they are only incorporated into the film near the end, the final climactic scene may take up a significant portion of the movie’s running time - not unlike the Battle for Chicago in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.As I get set to return to work this is most likely the last of these for awhile, until I find another excuse to talk about the franchise I love. No matter how little footage has been released of the Dinobots, they remain one of the most intriguing and exciting aspects of Age of Extinction. As speculated previously, they may only appear for the final battle in an attempt to help Optimus Prime save the human race from extinction - a theme repeated in every trailer for Age of Extinction. One, who looks to be Grimlock, is shown roaring in Tucci’s face, and two others - possibly Grimlock and Slug - display their transformations on a bridge while a third flies overhead: Swoop (modeled after a pteranodon).Įven with this new footage, however, it’s still difficult to tell how much the Dinobots will actually be featured in the final cut of the film. Another promo, released exclusively by Crave Online, depicts more Dinobots than seen in any previous promos.
