When confronted with Metalhawk, Starscream, and Rattrap, Jhiaxus first demonstrated the armor's abilities by copying Metalhawk's arm-blades. Starscream fired upon Jhiaxus, only for the reactive armor to absorb the blast and transform into a duplicate of Starscream's new body. Black Planet Jhiaxus engaged Starscream in hand-to-hand combat, using copies of Starscream's built-in swords to keep him on the defensive.

Starscream took the hint and deployed his own swords, impaling Jhiaxus through the reactive armor and killing him. ...And the Damage Done
