In the cartoons, how many Decepticons/Predacons have the Autobots/Maximals killed?

I was thinking about how in the Bayverse the Autobots kill named Decepticons all the time, but in the cartoons when we get a death it's normally an Autobot getting killed and the closest I can remember to Bots killing Cons (aside from cannon fodder) is the Cons getting severely damaged in the '86 movie and then saved by Unicron who reformatted them into Galvatron and his cronies.

So outside of un-named Insecticons, Sweeps, Vehicons, etc, how many Decepticons have actually been killed by Autobots/Maximals over the years in cartoons?

Soundwave, but then he gets rebuilt into SoundBlaster, so I dunno if that counts.

Not a lot.

Depending on how you look at it, in the movie they ended the lives of Megatron, Thundercracker, Skywarp and the Insecticons. Kinda.

In Beast Wars the Maximals blew up Ravage and Rampage's death was kinda suicide-by-cop.

In the Japanese and Japanese translated shows. Some, some that didn't make the translation and some that didn't stick (like the Soundwave example). Shockwave in Energon springs to mind, I think they maybe retcones his repaint from a brother to the same character.

Most of the other shows tend to have defeated Decepticons rather than dead ones. What with their target audience of children.

Except maybe RescueBots if their Blades is anything like his counterparts

All the Predacons ended up dying with the exception of Megatron and Waspinator (they gave him an awesome ending though!).

Yep but Terrorsaur and Scorponok were accidents although indirectly caused by Optimus primal. Megatron blew up Quickstrike and Inferno. BA defected. Only Ravage's death was one caused by a Maximal (Rattrap blowing up his ship) and Rampage allowed Depth Charge to stab him. So not many directly caused by the good guys.

Sorry! My bad! Didn't read the title of the thread properly, just saw the Decepticons/Predacons killed and completely disregarded the Autobots/Maximals part!

I should stop fapping to pics of upcoming toy releases! I'm going blind!

I was thinking Hasbro cartoons, but that's something to keep in mind.

Predaking, Menasor and all the Decepticon combiner generals definitely die by the hands of Dai Atlus in Zone.

Wait who killed Starscream in transformers animated?

And I understand why you asked cartoons, because those movie deaths were really dark and heavy

I still maintain it was Insecticon clones that died in the movie as the Insecticons show up a couple of times in Season 3 and Shrapnel even had a line in Fight or Flee.

The Autobots killed a bunch of Insecticon clones in that Ep in S2 where the Protectobots show up for the first time as well.

Megatron killed Starscream in Animated but then Proel used mystic stuff to pull all the Allspark shards together in S3 which pulled it out of Screamers head and re-killed him so I guess that counts as an Autobot committing manslaughter
