[edit] Challenge of the Go-Bots

In the animated series Challenge of the GoBots, Cy-Kill was the leader of the evil Renegades. He was originally a member of the Guardians and friend of Leader-1. He wanted to be the sole ruler of Gobotron to better protect it (since he felt he was the mightiest guardian), but Leader-1 believed in democracy. This led Cy-Kill to break away from the Guardians and become the leader of the Renegades. He sought to conquer the Gobot homeworld and have all the power for himself. He was very ruthless and a thorn in the side of the Guardians. The Guardians were able to eventually capture him. Unfortunately he used his wheels against the guards to aid his escape(since his weapons were disconnected); causing the release of Fitor (also a former guardian). Because of Fitor's aid, Cy-Kill was able to escape and become a threat to the galaxy again.

[edit] Toys

The toy of Cy-Kill was originally Bandai's Bike Robo from their Machine Robo toyline. Bike Robo was a heroic character in red, white, and blue colors. Tonka, however, decided to make this character a villain. The Tonka version was originally released in the red, white, and blue, but later versions were changed to a more "evil" black and green color scheme. The animated version, however, had already been drawn in the original colors and so he stayed that way on TV. A larger "Super GoBot" Cy-Kill was later released.

[edit] Dreamwave Productions

Although never named in the series, Cy-Kill made two appearances in Dreamwave Productions Transformers comic book series. The first was in the Transformers: Armada comic as one of the unnamed Decepticons killed by the heralds of Unicron. The second time was in a flashback in the Transformers: Generation One comic series, where he was a gladiator who was defeated by Megatron.
