Megatron is the primary antagonist from the Transformers franchise, created by Hasbro, and based on a toy design by Takara. He is a sentient robotic lifeform from the planet Cybertron and the leader of the villainous Decepticons.

Megatron is usually depicted as having rose up from the lowly worker to become a champion in gladiatorial combat. As a gladiator, he took the legendary name Megatronus as his own and would similarly inspire a later villainous character. He called for an end to his planet Cybertron s corrupted governing body and told the downtrodden that freedom of self-determination was the right of all sentient beings, becoming a mentor to the young Optimus Prime. Prime who would later use his teachings against him when he became corrupt. He has the ability to transform between his robot shape and various weapons or vehicles, but these alternate-modes , his origins and even personality, can vary depending on which universe he s seen in. This origin is considered the most consistent between the various incarnations (wiki)
