Jungle Planet

Planet in Transformers: Cybertron, home of one of four Cyber Planet Keys and ancient Transformer colonies sent to reacquire them. A lush, green planet, the Animatros Transformers took animal alternate modes, but for a time, were leaderless, leaving their world torn by violence and poverty. Eventually, Scourge (Flame Convoy in Japan), a student under Zen-master Backstop, grew impatient with his people's suffering, and forced a rebellion against those taking advantage of the chaos, strong-arming his way into leadership position in a series of battles to determine who would be strong enough to become leader. Corrupted by his newfound power and position, Scourge forced a "peace through tyrrany" campaign, bringing his people the peace and prosperity he promised them, but only through a dictatorship ruled by the credo of 'might makes right'. However, Scourge couldn't totally rid himself of his old master's teachings, and he enforced a strict series of laws regulating disputes being settled only through formal duels of strength, with sabotage and especially unjustified death of a defeated foe as the planet's highest defense. Overhaul (Jackshot in Japan) was sent to acquire the Planet Key here, and was transformed into Leobreaker (Liger Jack in Japan) as a result, eventually convincing Optimus Prime (Galaxy Convoy in Japan) to rethink his credo of non-interaction with local customs in order to acquire the Key.
