:''Lockdown is an unaligned Cybertronian mercenary, and is disgusted by, but sometimes associated with the [[Decepticon]]s, from the [[live-action film series]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:AOE Lockdown walks.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5||In 2007, we were all pretty sure there would be a fourth live-action ''Transformers'' movie with Lockdown as the main villain.]]
Even the Decepticons are afraid of ''this'' guy, because once '''Lockdown''' has been hired to track down a subject, nothing stops him from completing his transaction short of total deactivation! Answering only to his enigmatic "[[Creator (AOE)|Creators]]", Lockdown holds himself above the Autobot/Decepticon war and sees both sides as squabbling children that he has to reign in personally. He doesn't think much higher of other civilized species across the galaxy (particularly humans), though isn't above working with them if it suits him.

Unfortunately for the [[Autobot]] medic, [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] is Lockdown's next target, and Lockdown, as always, has been paid handsomely for his destruction. He's also run afoul of [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]] previously, in some unspecified circumstance.<ref>Hasbro's website describes both Arcee and Ratchet as Lockdown's enemy on their respective pages, mirroring their relationship in ''Animated''.</ref>

Lockdown is a bounty hunter from heart. He always fulfills the contracts and missions he is assigned to as long as he is paid. He doesn't really care what he has to do in order to fulfill his contract, eager to destroy entire planets if it's necessary. His respect for other species is not too great either, sometimes mumbling about his own clients and speaking to them sarcastically. Lockdown's been known to loot weaponry from the foes he kills, so his armoury is constantly changing!<ref>[[Transformers Comic issue 5.1]] bio: "The Lockdown on Lockdown" The spare parts is an ''Animated'' trait that was added in.</ref>

He trained [[Axor]] a long time ago, and the younger hunter has even ''rebuilt himself'' to better resemble Lockdown (though he denies it if you ask). He views his mentor as his closest comrade, which Lockdown has been willing to let him believe.<ref>Axor's [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/play/details.cfm?guid=841165f8-19b9-f369-1057-0b57c1e069b6 Battle Bio]</ref> ''His'' closest comrade is Megatron, because that's who's currently paying him, in [[energon star|energon chips]]!<ref>Lockdown's [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/play/details.cfm?guid=841165f8-19b9-f369-1057-0b57c1e069b6 Battle Bio.]</ref>

These days, a long scar runs down his face. There are many rumours about where it came from, some saying it was a run-in with Megatron, but nobody knows for sure...<ref>[[Transformers Comic issue 5.1]] bio: "The Lockdown on Lockdown"</ref>

[[File:Aoe-lockdown-hook.jpg|thumb|upright=1.95|I have a [[Lockdown (Animated)|hook]] now, happy?]]

Tasked by the mysterious [[Creator (AOE)|Creators]] with the capture and return of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], Lockdown travelled to [[Earth]] and joined forces with the human organization [[Cemetery Wind]], who were in the process of hunting and killing any surviving Cybertronians who had survived the battle of [[Chicago]]. In exchange for the safe apprehension of Prime, he promised [[Harold Attinger]] a [[Seed]], a device that could cyberform a massive area of land. Several years after the Battle of Chicago, Lockdown and Cemetery Wind located Optimus Prime in [[Mexico City]] and attacked; though Lockdown was able to grievously wound Prime, the human operatives failed to contain Prime, and he escaped and went into hiding.

Continuing to work with Cemetery Wind, Lockdown aided in the pursuit of [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]], lurking in nearby waters and disabling the Autobot medic from afar with his head-cannon after the humans had crippled him. When Ratchet refused to divulge Optimus's location, Lockdown ripped his [[spark]] from his chest. Soon after, he met with Attinger on the hull of his [[Knight Ship|ship]] to discuss their arrangements, where the bounty hunter expressed his disgust with [[human]]s and mused that none of the species he had worked with in his travels had really understood their place in the universe. 

An anonymous tip from a [[Lucas Flannery|panicked civilian]] allowed Cemetery Wind to locate Optimus in at the home of [[Cade Yeager]] in [[Texas]]. Lockdown pulled up to a nearby baseball field and transformed, deploying his hook to clamber up a nearby grain silo. When Optimus revealed himself and began fighting back against Cemetery Wind's human operatives, Lockdown bombarded the Yeager homestead with a flurry of missiles, destroying it. Lockdown later pursued Prime across the highway, and eventually engaged Prime in battle on the roof of an abandoned factory. Prime managed to momentarily disable Lockdown by tossing him into a crane cable, allowing the Autobot leader to escape once again with his human allies; Lockdown freed himself in time to try and stop them with a grenade, but the only victim of its blast was [[Lucas Flannery]].

[[File:Lockdown gun face.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.67|[[Optimus Prime (Movie)|GIVE ME YOUR]]- Err.. face-gun!]]

Later, after the Autobots stormed [[Kinetic Solutions Incorporated|KSI]], Optimus was battling [[Galvatron (AOE)|Galvatron]] when Lockdown ambushed Prime and took him and [[Tessa Yeager]] captive. After moving his ship over Chicago to deliver the promised Seed to Cemetery Wind, Lockdown locked Prime up with the other [[Dinobot (AOE)|Knights]] that he had captured, explaining to the defeated Autobot the origins of his ship and why the Creators wanted him. Unbeknownst to Lockdown, the other Autobots and humans had already boarded his ship in order to free Prime and Tessa; when [[Crosshairs (AOE)|Crosshairs]] fired the ship's anchors in order to prevent it from taking off, the bounty hunter merely assumed one of his prisoners had broken free, and dispatched a pack of [[Steeljaw (AOE)|Steeljaws]] to deal with the problem. The beasts detached the anchors, and Lockdown took off into space, unaware that the Autobots had rescued Prime and stolen the section of his ship containing his prize trophy case. 
 
[[File:LockdownDeath.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|Half the hunter he used to be.]]
Discovering the truth part-way into his journey, the furious Lockdown ordered a return to Earth. Arriving in the midst of a battle between the Autobots and KSI drones in [[Hong Kong]], Lockdown utilized a magnetic weapon on his ship to wreak havoc on the city, but it was soon destroyed by Optimus. Lockdown descended to Hong Kong to battle him in person, leading to a vicious fight that saw Lockdown take the upper hand after Optimus diverted his attention save Cade Yeager from Attinger. Lockdown impaled Prime on his own [[sword]], mocking him for his choice to save the human, but before the bounty hunter could finish him, [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], Cade, Tessa and [[Shane Dyson]] all teamed up against him. Lockdown was able to dispatch Bumblebee, and then turned on Cade, but failed to notice that Shane and Tessa had freed Optimus. Optimus slew Lockdown by brutally bisecting him with his sword, and destroyed what remained of his body when he used one of Lockdown's grenades to finish off the remaining KSI drones.

And we thought Lockdown always fulfilled his contracts.

{{quote|Science will not win this war!|Says the transforming giant robot|[[Cyber Missions 3|''Cyber Missions'' #3]]}}

Lockdown was cruising the city streets when he was encountered by [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]], who had been alerted to Lockdown's presence by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] due to their "violent history". For blocks, Lockdown fled Ratchet silently as the Autobot fired his [[EMP]] blaster until he transformed into [[robot mode]] and expressed his frustration. Finally, when Ratchet's EMP blaster failed him, Lockdown transformed as well. He mocked Ratchet for never being able to best him, knocked him around, and when the Autobot had had enough, the Decepticon bounty hunter stole Ratchet's EMP blaster as a memento. As Lockdown sped away, he wondered if he could fix Ratchet's faulty weapon. {{storylink|Cyber Missions 3|Cyber Missions #3}}

Later, Lockdown managed to evade [[Diego Garcia]]'s security measures and sneak into Autobot Headquarters undetected. After cutting power to the facilities, he sneaked up behind [[Sideswipe (Movie)|Sideswipe]] in the target practice range. Ratchet's EMP blaster, attached to Lockdown's arm, was now in proper working order, and the bounty hunter vowed to also take Sideswipe's new sidearms. Lockdown was shocked when the EMP blaster was shot off his arm and out of his reach by Ratchet. Wounded, the Decepticon fled. Unfortunately for Lockdown, he retreated to the medical bay, where Ratchet's surgical tools restrained and sedated him. {{storylink|Cyber Missions 7|Cyber Missions #7}}

Later, Lockdown and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] confronted [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]. Looking to steal one of Ironhide's weapons, Lockdown took a missile instead, which blew up in his face. The explosion damaged his optics, so he fled. {{storylink|Cyber Missions 11|Cyber Missions #11}}

===Titan movie comics===
[[File:Titan AOE Drif's crew.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|In the grim darkness of the recent past, there is only war!]]

Five years before the Battle of [[Chicago]],<ref>''Dark of the Moon'' has no explicit date but as Sam has graduated, it's set in 2012 at the earliest</ref> Lockdown was part of a three-Con team with [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]] and [[Knucklehead]] on Cybertron. While Drift wanted to take an Autobot outpost with minimal bloodshed, Lockdown thought this was sissy hippy crap and they should just bomb everything (even though that would mean having no outpost to capture); when they sneaked instead, he disobeyed orders and decided to execute prisoners out of hand. Drift stopped him, giving a gleeful Lockdown the chance to claim the guy was a traitor and kill him off. Knucklehead and Drift sent him down into a molten moat, swearing revenge on them both. Of course, he couldn't actually kill them while Megatron was still in charge, or the big boss would be unhappy. 

Lockdown had come to Earth and in 2011 he fell in with Megatron again. Soon after, the big boss was killed at Chicago and Lockdown immediately murdered Knucklehead. Drift, now an Autobot, found the corpse on the moon and knew the hunter had become more powerful than before. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.1|Adrift in Space and Time}}

As well as being a Decepticon, Lockdown had a profitable sideline as a bounty hunter and hired killer. He claimed the bounty on the [[Coseem crime gang]]'s boss.{{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.4|Locked In!}}

With a [[Lockdown (ROTF)#Revenge of the Fallen|new body]], he went to Earth soon after and ended up captured by [[NEST]] under unknown circumstances... only to become part of [[Bludgeon (ROTF)|Bludgeon]]'s 2010 jailbreak! He joined Bludgeon's splinter cell of Decepticons and took great pleasure in talking out all his "hurting" on [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Smokescreen]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.13|Inside Out!}}

When the Autobots tracked down the Decepticon base in [[Russia]], Lockdown was ordered to prepare an ambush for them. He loyally served Bludgeon in this until Megatron arrived, {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.20|Divided Loyalties}} and then he not-so-loyally ran away. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.21|A Short, Sharp Lesson!}}

After the Battle of Chicago, Lockdown (now back in his old body!) took control of the remaining Decepticon forces but kept himself out of the limelight. He oversaw an ambush in [[Indonesia]]: three Decepticons would kill a few hundred humans, getting the predictable Autobots to give chase and be ambushed at an old [[Netherlands|Dutch]] fort. He watched as [[Crosshairs (AOE)|Crosshairs]] didn’t rush in head on and wiped out his team, but the Autobots remained unaware he was around so ''he'' was alright! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.2|Thousand Island Fight}} 

He snuck off Earth to make some more cash bounty-hunting but was tricked into capturing [[Sojex]], a Coseem hitwoman who took control of his ship and turned his own defences on him. He cut through them all and when attacked by [[scraplet]]s, he quietly [[water|dealt with them]] while using holograms to make Sojex think he was dead. After her defeat, Lockdown was contacted by [[Creator (AOE)|new employers]] with a job on Earth.{{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 5.4|Locked In!}}

Lockdown found himself cornered by the duo of [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]] and [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]], but to the bounty hunter's luck, Drift was an inexperienced Dinobot rider indeed. Lockdown impatiently waited for Drift to get his act together and attack him already, but to Lockdown's amusement, Drift fried himself with Slug's weaponry. However, it turned out to be a bad day for all, since Lockdown got zapped too.

{{voiceactor|[[Gregg Berger]]}}
====Console====
Some time during his stay on Earth, Lockdown tracked down the [[Dark Spark]] as it made its way toward the planet. The Autobots realized the destruction the relic could cause and moved to retrieve it, only to be stopped by the bounty hunter. Intercepting the Autobots, Lockdown grabbed the Dark Spark first and took it for himself. Despite Optimus Prime's pleas, Lockdown was more interested in the profit he could make from its power. As Prime attempted to tackle Lockdown and take the artifact, Lockdown activated its power and froze the Autobots in place long enough to escape.

Later, the Autobots attempted to infiltrate Lockdown's base but were unsuccessful. Drift was captured while Bumblebee escaped, but only long enough to find an alternate path to retrieve his colleague. Lockdown sent a titan after them to prevent their escape, but the Autobots were able to slip out and regroup.

Finally breaking into Lockdown's base, they discovered he had been using the power of the Dark Spark to create a time bridge to go back in time and prevent the Autobot's victory at the Battle of Chicago. In doing so, he would revive the war and with it his main source of income. Optimus once again pleaded to rethink, citing the destruction that Earth would have to endure if the war were to continue, but as usual Lockdown didn't care. Optimus once again tried to tackle Lockdown, who activated the Dark Spark's power again to stop him in mid-air. In true super villain fashion, Lockdown monologued his plan rather than do something about Prime, who was able to break free of the Dark Spark's power. The two fought to a standstill until Drift was able to move in and cut the Dark Spark from Lockdown's chest. Fumbling to catch it, Lockdown instead knocked it into Drift's hand long enough for Optimus to activate the Matrix of Leadership and blast it into the time bridge. Lockdown took the opportunity to escape, swearing that "this isn't the end". {{storylink|Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark (console)|Rise of the Dark Spark (console)}}

[[File:ROTF deluxe Lockdown.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|[[Lockdown (Animated)|Almost identical]].]]
*'''Lockdown''' (Deluxe, 2010)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RD-26'''
**''Accessories'': Engine

:Lockdown's design strongly homages his [[Lockdown (Animated)|''Transformers Animated'' counterpart]], but with a completely different transformation. Once again, Lockdown transforms into an amalgam of a 1980s Corvette and a 1960s Cougar, with lots of spikes and a cow-catcher on his bumper. The toy's [[Mech Alive]] feature rotates cylinders inside his thighs as his lower legs rotate, and pneumatic cylinders extend as his [[Capture Hook]] is deployed. 

:Lockdown may have the most articulated neck ever for a Transformer, having three ball joints and a swivel joint. Craziness.

:Similar to his ''Animated'' counterpart, Lockdown's arm-mounted hot rod engine weapon can be removed and can be replaced by ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Deluxe [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]]'s weapon. Likewise, Ratchet can store Lockdown's engine on his roof; it cannot, however, attach to his arm. Interestingly, the plug for Lockdown's engine is the same general shape as the plug for ''Animated'' Lockdown's EMP blaster/engine, but smaller; as such, it isn't compatible with ''Animated'' Lockdown, or with ''Animated'' [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet]] or [[Ironhide (Animated)|Ironhide]], for that matter.

:Much like his Animated incarnation, he is much taller then other Deluxes, being almost Voyager-sized or larger.

:This mold was retooled to make [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010]] [[Axor]] as well as [[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]] [[Circuit (Movie)|Circuit]]. This toy was [[repurposing|repurposed]] as [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[Lockdown (G1)|Lockdown]].

*'''Lockdown''' (Deluxe, 2014)
**''Japanese ID Number'': '''AD-26'''
**''Accessories'': Face-gun
:A new mold, Lockdown transforms into an officially licensed (in fact, the only licensed toy of Lockdown released in the ''Age of Extinction'' line) Lamborghini Aventador, and is decently articulated in [[robot mode]], with only the waist lacking articulation. He comes with a missile-firing blaster that can either be held using his hands (via 5mm posts), or attached to his head (via a peg on the gun) to simulate his "Sniper-Mode" from the ''Age of Extinction'' film. The blaster can also peg onto the top of his [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] via two additional pegs. His transformation shares similarities to Deluxe [[Roadbuster (DOTM)|Roadbuster]]'s.

:The Takara ''[[Movie Advanced Series]]'' version of the figure replaces much of the robot mode's grey plastic with black, intending to create a more movie-accurate appearance.

: Amusingly, both of his toys from Hasbro and Takara are both mis-transformed. The Hasbro version has his shoulder cannons not properly transformed and his part of his right side of his body mis-transformed while the Takara has his legs and arms not properly transformed however this gives him a much taller and less bulky look.

: He is somewhat inaccurate to his actual CGI appearance, and ironically unlike his predecessors, he is actually smaller than most other Deluxes his size due his smaller vehicle mode size.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''LA09'''

:Similar to an Activators toy, Lockdown can transform into a robot by pressing a button on his vehicle mode. This version of him does ''not'' have a licensed Lamborghini Aventador car mode (No licensing information is printed on his packaging, nor does the car have a Lamborghini symbol). Oddly enough, Lockdown's entire back is sculpted with great detail, despite this not being visible without taking the toy apart.

:The Japanese release of Lockdown does away with the blue paint on his robot mode and car rear, and features black and metallic blue paint detail on his robot parts for slight extra screen-accuracy.

Squeezing his legs triggers the firing gimmick on his back. [[:File:AoE Power Battler Lockdown.jpg|Promotional photographs of Power Battlers Lockdown]] featured paint applications on his left thigh/vehicle front bumper, but the final product left the thigh/bumper unpainted due to being molded in [[unpaintable plastic]].

**''ID number:'' '''QT-03'''

:''[[Q-Transformers]]'' Lockdown is a [[super deformed]] toy that transforms from a cutesified super-deformed Lamborghini Aventador to robot like in the film. He comes with a code for unlocking Lockdown as a playable character in the ''[[Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns (mobile game)|Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns]]'' game, though his in-game appearance is based on his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design instead of this toy.

*'''Lockdown''' ([[July 25|7-25]]-2015, [[January 30|1-30]]-2016)
**''ID number:'' '''QT-25''', '''QTF-03'''

:This Lockdown is a new mold that matches the character's appearance in the ''[[Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns (cartoon)|Q-Transformers: Mystery of Convoy Returns]]'' cartoon, which is in turn based on his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design but with a vehicle mode inspired by the Lamborghini Aventador. In fact, he matches up with the Lockdown design unlocked in the ''Q-Transformers'' game by the ''previous'' toy. To distinguish this toy from that one it's released under the name "Lockdown (Yoroshikuu!)", adding to his name a phrase translating to something like "Best regards!" (よろしくぅ!), though in Lockdown's case it's meant in a sarcastic manner used by stereotypical Japanese delinquents. This line is something of a catchphrase of Lockdown's in the ''Q-Transformers'' cartoon.

:This toy was re-released with a new ID number as part of the second ''Q-Transformers'' series.

*'''Q-Transformers Protagonists 3-Figure Set''' (1-30-2016)
**''ID number:'' '''QTFS-01 '''

:The second Lockdown toy was also sold in a three-pack with fellow cartoon main characters [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Q-Transformers|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Q-Transformers|Bumblebee]]. They come with a cardboard backdrop to be displayed on that depicts a typical service area of a Japanese expressway, much like the real locations the characters stand around in in the cartoon.

:Although usually sold in Japanese markets, some department stores in Asia had sold the set as well.

*'''Lockdown''' (2010)
**''Series'': '''Metal Heroes'''
**''Number'': '''08'''

:''[[Robot Powered Machines]]'' Mini-Vehicle Lockdown is a small, non-transforming, [[die-cast]] rendition of his vehicle mode. His robot mode is sculpted underneath the vehicle, and his wheels use through-axle construction that lets the toy zip around at high speeds on smooth surfaces.

:The intended ''RPM'' release of "Metal Heroes" Lockdown never came out. Though it eventually saw release in ''Speed Stars'', the ''RPM'' version had more paint operations, featuring a painted cowcatcher, engine and roof spikes. While only "Stunticon" Lockdown was officially listed during the run of the ''RPM'' series (on the back of the Asian market release of ''RPM'' "Stunticon" [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]), images of the two were revealed by a downloadable poster on the official ''Transformers'' website of Turkey.

**''Number'': '''08'''

:''[[Speed Stars]]'' Lockdown is a small, non-transforming, [[die-cast]] rendition of his vehicle mode. His robot mode is sculpted underneath the vehicle, and his wheels use through-axle construction that lets the toy zip around at high speeds on smooth surfaces.

:When shown at [[BotCon 2010]], Lockdown had a completely different color scheme, being predominantly gold with blue flames on his hood, green hubcaps, a red engine, and a gray bumper and spoiler. Though this version of "Metal Heroes" Lockdown was also depicted on a downloadable poster on the ''Speed Stars'' website, the toy was eventually released using Lockdown's proper colors.

:This mold was also used to make ''Speed Stars'' Stunticon Series [[Axor|Axel]].

*'''Lockdown''' (2011?)
**''Series'': '''Stunticon'''
**''Number'': '''03'''

:"Stunticon" Lockdown is a redeco of his previous ''Speed Stars'' toy in black, purple and red - or ''was'' back when the line was ''Robot Powered Machines'' (see above). Though Lockdown is listed on the back of ''Speed Stars'' Stunticon [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]'s packaging, a Lockdown redeco named Axor was shown as part of the Stunticon series at [[BotCon 2010]] (who was in turn named as Axel on the ''Speed Stars'' website). Given there were a few wholesale deco changes between ''RPMs'' and ''Speed Stars'' within series, it's possible that Lockdown's place in the Stunticons was taken by Axor/Axel... but considering that ALL of these items seem to be canceled, it's impossible to say for certain.

==Notes==
*The head on ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Deluxe Lockdown's instruction lineart is actually that of his retool, [[Axor]]. The head can be seen in much clearer detail on page 8 of the [[San Diego Comic-Con]] [[Hasbro Design Sketchbook]], volume 2.
*Much like his other incarnations, Lockdown goes from having a [[Size changing|sports car vehicle mode to a huge, Optimus-sized robot mode]].
*In an even bigger reference to his ''[[Lockdown (Animated)|Animated]]'' counterpart, Lockdown's ''Age of Extinction'' incarnation has the ability to transform his hands into various weapons, such as the famous hook, a blaster, a spark extractor device, and even his chainsaw-hand. He can also turn his head into a sniper rifle-esque cannon, lending credence to the fact that he's probably been building on himself like his original incarnation. Some concept art also showed him characteristically taking and equipping Ratchet's saw after he had terminated the Autobot. 
*Early concept art for Lockdown indicates that at one point he would have hewed closer to his original ''Animated'' design; not only would he have sported a green-and-black color scheme and a tattered "poncho",<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/attach/1/10492031_823531154338867_8013560203166570203_n_1404766373.jpg Concept art for Lockdown's robot mode</ref> he would also have transformed into a weatherbeaten muscle car with an exposed engine block.<ref>http://www.flickr.com/photos/69016045@N00/14607949853/ Concept art for Lockdown's vehicle mode</ref> Presumably, his [[alternate mode]] and design were altered so that Lamborghini could [[To sell toys|advertise their new sports cars]].
*Two proposed [[Fun Publications]] [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]]s were a redecoes of [[#Revenge of the Fallen|''Revenge of the Fallen'' Lockdown]] into "Marlboor Wheeljack" (conceived prior to [[Exhaust]] receiving his name from Takara) and a ''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]'' version of [[Stranglehold]] using the [[Axor]] tooling (and would have had a mustache!).<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>
