	Lockdown was surprised when it turned out [[Wheeljack (G1)\|Wheeljack]] could only reach level 4 of the game despite being on the development team, and remained unimpressed when Wheeljack details the parts of the game that the team focused on. Wheeljack's assertion that the "gap" made the game more attractive did little to convince Lockdown and just started a conversation about men's unattractive gaps that left the Decepticon facepalming. {{storylink\|Mystery of the Gap of Unpopular Men}} When they were joined by [[Sideswipe (G1)\|Sideswipe]] and [[Sunstreaker (G1)\|Sunstreaker]], Lockdown brought up his major complaint that the game didn't properly reflect the original anime and demanded the others admit it. He was ignored while everyone discussed other crappy games, and admitted he couldn't stand not having a shower first thing in the morning when they started talking about explorers who never leave home. {{storylink\|Mystery of a Certain Explorer}} When [[Bluestreak (G1)\|Bluestreak]] and [[Smokescreen (G1)\|Smokescreen]] were called in to discuss more crappy games, Lockdown had had enough of the topic and wanted them all to move on with their lives.

	Unfortunately for Lockdown, Optimus persisted on trying to prove ''Mystery of Convoy'' wasn't crappy, bringing in [[Tracks (G1)\|Tracks]] to provide possible data reasons a game could be crappy. The others dismissed the idea of ''Mystery of Convoy'' matching any of the reasons give, much to Lockdown's disgust. {{storylink\|Mystery of Game Balance}} [[Red Alert (G1)\|Red Alert]] arrived with another set of possible reasons, but when Optimus and Bumblebee dismissed them all, it threw Lockdown into a rage. {{storylink\|Mystery of the Lowest Possible Standards}} When Optimus adopted a different alternate mode, it led Lockdown to muse why Transformers voices, personalities and sometimes even names differ depending on what show they're appearing in. He wondered if this was some sort of player 1/player 2 thing. {{storylink\|Mystery of Convoy}} Lockdown eventually got as far as the [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] boss in the game, only for the actual Megatron to turn up and complain about him getting hooked on the game. Megatron wanted to know why the game hadn't been patched to be better yet, though Lockdown thought patching it might make it worse. When the suggestion was made that they should rename the game, Lockdown thought it would also be a good idea to add swimsuit malfunctions, and was unimpressed with Optimus's naming ideas. {{storylink\|Mystery of Return of Convoy}}		Unfortunately for Lockdown, Optimus persisted on trying to prove ''Mystery of Convoy'' wasn't crappy, bringing in [[Tracks (G1)\|Tracks]] to provide possible data reasons a game could be crappy.

	With the releasing of new Q-Transformers toys that better matched their cartoon appearance, Lockdown was confused as to why the appearances differed in the first place. This led to the revelation that the line was waning in popularity and they'd need to discuss how to make it more popular. {{storylink\|The Road to Winning a New Fanbase}} Optimus and Bumblebee thought that examining previous ''Transformers'' shows would be helpful. After they examined the original show, Lockdown pointed out that they hadn't reflected on the show's faults, such as its weak depiction of war and the difficulty in telling who is an Autobot and who's a Decepticon. He agreed with Bumblebee's idea of the characters wearing uniforms, much to the surprise of the others. {{storylink\|The Road to Easy Identification}}		With the releasing of new Q-Transformers toys that better matched their cartoon appearance, Lockdown was confused as to why the appearances differed in the first place.

			While meeting with [[Optimus Prime (Movie)\|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)\|Bumblebee]] at a rest stop, Lockdown wondered why they'd been made cute for the Q-Transformers toyline, which turned out to be so they'd appeal to non-''Transformers'' fans. Lockdown thought a better way of doing that would be to make it into a daytime soap with him and Optimus in a love triangle with Bumblebee. No one else was keen on the idea. {{storylink\|Mystery of the 30th Anniversary Merchandise}} The conversation eventually turned to ''[[Transformers: Mystery of Convoy\| Mystery of Convoy]]'', with Lockdown puzzled over why anyone would play such an impossible crappy game. The others defended it, and he challenged them to define a crappy game if ''Mystery of Convoy'' didn't count.

	With the releasing of new Q-Transformers toys that better matched their cartoon appearance, Lockdown was confused as to why the appearances differed in the first place. This led to the revelation that the line was waning in popularity and they'd need to discuss how to make it more popular. {{storylink\|The Road to Winning a New Fanbase}} Optimus and Bumblebee thought that examining previous ''Transformers'' shows would be helpful. After they examined the original show, Lockdown pointed out that they hadn't reflected on the show's faults, such as its weak depiction of war and the difficulty in telling who is an Autobot and who's a Decepticon. He agreed with Bumblebee's idea of the characters wearing uniforms, much to the surprise of the others. {{storylink\|The Road to Easy Identification}}		With the releasing of new Q-Transformers toys that better matched their cartoon appearance, Lockdown was confused as to why the appearances differed in the first place.

			While meeting with [[Optimus Prime (Movie)\|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)\|Bumblebee]] at a rest stop, Lockdown wondered why they'd been made cute for the Q-Transformers toyline, which turned out to be so they'd appeal to non-''Transformers'' fans. Lockdown thought a better way of doing that would be to make it into a daytime soap with him and Optimus in a love triangle with Bumblebee. No one else was keen on the idea. {{storylink\|Mystery of the 30th Anniversary Merchandise}} The conversation eventually turned to ''[[Transformers: Mystery of Convoy\| Mystery of Convoy]]'', with Lockdown puzzled over why anyone would play such an impossible crappy game. The others defended it, and he challenged them to define a crappy game if ''Mystery of Convoy'' didn't count. Though they provided examples, his opinion was a crappy game would be one that smelled bad. {{storylink\|Mystery of Reliably Crappy Games}}
