They have cone shaped heads with any number of irregularly sized circular eyes, they can have two eyes or more depending on the individual Homunculus. They have large mouths lined with almost hexagonal shaped teeth that also have no consistent size. Each of the Homunculi also have the original human hosts head inside their mouths. While a lot of them have normal looking hands, most of them possess claws, large blades, crab like claws or even club-like hands lined with spikes.

Plot

L.X.E. Arc

One of the Homunculi attempts to devour Mahiro.

A large horde Revised Homunculi are seen accompanying Dr. Butterfly and the restoration tank containing Victor Powered towards Ginsei Private Academy. When they reach the school they begin to march over to the school in order to devour the students. Before they can do so however they are interrupted by the arrival of Kazuki Muto and Tokiko Tsumura who begin to destroy many of them, however as Butterfly explains to the Alchemist Warriors what they are, many more keep replacing the destroyed Homunculi making it a seemingly endless battle. One of the Homunculi manages to get past the warriors and breaks into the classroom where Mahiro Muto and her friends are. Before it can grab Mahiro's friends, Mahiro herself stands between them to protect her friends, Kazuki then destroys it, saving Mahiro and her friends. Eventually Dr. Butterfly gets mad at the warriors which causes the remaining Homunculi to devour each other. Instead of actually eating each other however, they merge together in two groups and form two Super Revised Homunculi. The first one attempts to punch Kazuki but he charges the energy on his Buso Renkin, Sunlight Heart and immediately destroys it. The second one is destroyed soon after by Papillon's demonstration of his Buso Renkin, Near-Death Happiness spelling the end of the Revised Homunculi threat.
