Re: QUESTIONS

This is just a thought:

Blazing Lockdown is just like regular Transformers Animated Lockdown, except:

"Exposed to an exotic form of energy, LOCKDOWN(TM) goes through remarkable changes. His systems are suddenly super energized so much that the excess power leaks directly through his armor in a fiery glow. Devoted more deeply than ever to tracking and destroying his AUTOBOT(R) prey, he no longer demands payment for his work. Now he hunts simply for the joy of seeing the fear in a victim's eyes." - Toy bio

Also:
-uses chainsaw over hook
-new deco is black with yellow flame motif
-super charged sensors let him detect cloaked enemies
-armor is heated and burns on contact

Doesn't say what kind of exotic energy or how he got exposed. Maybe it's a fleeting impulse, but I thought it might be interesting to try RPing this version. He's not so much a mod addict now, or a bounty hunter, as just a hunter.

But, if I get into headcanoning, I imagine he knows on some level he's under the influence of the exotic energy and might seek ways to be 'cured' or redeemed. (Like he has to go back to Cyber-ninja techniques and meditate, which he probably dislikes about as much as being influenced, when the thrill of each hunt starts to wear off.) And, if I were to play him for the event, it would be more dramatic if he got others to wish to help him and then went extra crazy murderspree on everyone.
