Robot gorillas and rhinos and birds, oh my! The seventh live-action entry in the sci-fi film franchise, introduces the Maximals—a race of robots that take the shape of animals instead of cars. In this 1994-set blockbuster, Optimus Prime (voiced again by Peter Cullen) and the Autobots (above: Arcee, voiced by Liza Koshy) join forces with the Maximals to oppose Scourge (voiced by Peter Dinklage) and his gang of Terrorcons. With human help (Anthony Ramos, Dominique Fishback), the heroes fight to prevent the Terrorcons from summoning their master, Unicron, a monster poised to devour Earth.
