What Different Eye Colors Mean In Transformers
The transformers have multiple eye colors such as red, blue, green, and even purple. Though the eye colors are not specific to any faction, a certain color is seen more in one faction than the other. The most common eye colors in Transformers are red and blue. There is no real explanation for the colors and their meaning or their relevance to the characters but there have been many fan theories surrounding it.
It has been observed that the majority of the Decepticons have red eye color. It is theorized that the eye color resembles the aggression and antagonistic nature of the robots. The red color reflects the anger and rage of the Decepticons. Whereas, the Autobots mostly have blue eye color. This in turn shows that the Autobots are cool, collected, and patient. They are much less aggressive and gentle and impassive.

Significance Of Green Eyes
Green, just like purple is a very rare eye color in the Transformers universe. The only robots who possess green eye color are Lockdown and Devastator. The fans believe that green eyes mean that the Transformer is neither Autobot nor Decepticon. Although that is true in the case of Lockdown, it does not stand true for Devastator. Devastator is a Decepticon and his green eyes are considered just an exception.
Lockdown’s green eyes have a lot more significance. It shows that Lockdown is neither an Autobot nor a Decepticon. It resembles the character’s neutrality. He is a powerful transformer and even Decepticons are afraid of him and his power. Lockdown is a bounty hunter and doesn’t care about his actions or their resulting consequences. He has shown his distaste for both the Autobots as well as the Decepticons.
