rdfs:comment
  • Small lipoles, despite consuming metal, can be frightened off with a handgun, though this seems to activate their defensive nature against predators, causing them to transform into a suicide missile and launch themselves at a foe or their transportation. Giant lipoles seem to glow with radioactivity and drool acid, although why this is is unknown. Despite appearing to be mechanical in nature, they are referred to as "bags of protoplasm".
  • Blurr and Wheelie crashed on Io while bringing Metroplex's transformation cog to Earth. As they awaited rescue, one of the gigantic, radioactively glowing, acid-dripping, metal-crunching lipoles emerged from a crater, picked up one of their discarded weapons, and devoured it for a light snack. Five Faces of Darkness, Part 3 Despite having all destroyed themselves, the swarm continued to beat Blurr, Wheelie, and Marissa viciously about the head and shoulders. Finally, Sky Lynx effortlessly rescued the trio from the creatures' pitiful, if ravenous, clutches. Five Faces of Darkness, Part 5

  • Blurr and Wheelie crashed on Io while bringing Metroplex's transformation cog to Earth. As they awaited rescue, one of the gigantic, radioactively glowing, acid-dripping, metal-crunching lipoles emerged from a crater, picked up one of their discarded weapons, and devoured it for a light snack. Five Faces of Darkness, Part 3 Shortly thereafter, a swarm of the tiny, mildly annoying lipoles attacked them until Marissa Faireborne arrived to rescue the pair. She landed and drove the swarm off with a handgun, but the lipoles transformed into suicidal missile mode and destroyed her ship, leaving the Autobots and human stranded, though apparently alone.
