Micromaster

Micromasters were created by the Transformers in response to growing power needs; It was costly and inefficent to continue to create or repair existing transformers in large bodies. Utilizing technology gained from the Nebulon "master" process, a smaller, more efficient form was constructed. Until this time, small transformers were limited in intelligence or ability in some way, such as the cassette robots needing a symbiotic relationship with Blaster or Soundwave.
Some transformers chose to do away with their old bodies and become smaller; The majority of those who remained looked down on the smaller micromasters. Due to their young age, at the time of the Great War no micromasters had officer status in either the Autobot or Decepticon army. By the time of the discovery of Zone Energy, Micromasters were beginning to move up the ranks.
