History

Generation 1

BotCon/Fun Publications

"Ask Vector Prime" later revealed an origin for the Protectobots not seen in The Transformers; found dormant in space by Omega Supreme, they were reactivated by an Energon infusion from the Aerialbots. This process unexpectedly gave them the ability to merge into Defensor.

Transformers: Universe

A new version of the Protectobot team was introduced in the Transformers: Universe toyline as a repaint of Sixturbo.

Robots in Disguise

"Ask Vector Prime" also introduced a Robots in Disguise version of the Protectobots known as the Protection Team. Sadly, in at least one continuity the team was decimated by Megazarak, with only Hot Spot surviving. After being granted the Matrix of Leadership by Ultra Trion, he became a new Defensor infused with the abilities of his fallen teammates.
