The Autobots (also known as Cybertrons in Japan) are the heroes in the Transformers toyline and related spin-off comics and cartoons.

After being reconceived by writers in the United States and assembled as a team, the first three Dinobots appeared in the episode "S.O.S. Dinobots" of the Transformers cartoon series, while the latter two were created in "War of the Dinobots". In the Transformers cartoon series Power of the Primes, they merge into the combiner Volcanicus.
The Aerialbots are a faction of Autobots who were created from Earth-style aircraft by Vector Sigma following Alpha Trion's sacrifice. They are the Autobots' first combiners faction. They combine to form Superion.

They possess the ability to eat any matter to power and enlarge themselves, create clones, sport weather-controlling abilities, and make use of cerebro-shells. They are often in a rocky alliance with the Decepticons, with both factions usually detesting the other but working together as circumstances require. All three die in the Battle of Autobot City before being reformatted by Unicron, though later adaptations sometimes portray them as still living entities separate from their new forms.
