Empty


 * The Empties are unaligned Transformers on Cybertron.

Millions of years of war and oppression have taken their toll on Cybertronian civilization. The Empties are inhabitants of the Dead End section of the Decepticon-controlled province of Polyhex who barely manage to eke out a meager existence under such hardship. Fuel is hard to come by for the Empties, and by the looks of their condition, spare parts even harder.

Marvel Comics continuity
The Decepticons, under the leadership of Straxus, had little regard for any Transformers that were not useful in advancing the Decepticon cause. Those deemed burdensome to the dwindling fuel supply were targeted for recycling into raw materials in the smelting pool. The Empties were high on that list.
