JD Red Knight commercial
When Bumblebee went against Lockdown in single combat and got his diodes kicked, JD Red Knight rolled out from his Hasbro toy factory headquarters(?!) with Optimus Prime, a squadron of airborne drones, and a trailer containing a mysterious purple energy source after receiving the news via drone transmission. Arriving in the battlefield in truck mode, Red Knight deployed Joy and loaded the energy source onto him before sending the canine minion to assist Bumblebee and transforming to robot mode to destroy some enemy drones. Meanwhile, Joy successfully delivered his payload to Bumblebee, who absorbed it and used its power to unleash a pulse wave that blew Lockdown off his feet. Victorious, Red Knight and the Autobots took a moment to pat each other on the back. JD Red Knight commercial[1]
Another day, in a Panasonic factory that appears to also serve as a secret Autobot facility, Joy was using a forklift to load Panasonic products into a trailer. Red Knight picks up another canister of mysterious purple energy and loads it into the same trailer as an alarm goes off. Optimus, Bumblebee, and Red Knight all go outside to investigate the disturbance. Two Lockdown-like robots (potentially Shadow Raiders?) approach the Autobots with intent to steal the purple energy. The Decepticons engage the three Autobots with Red Knight getting swiftly taken down with a single kick. While on the ground, Red Knight picks up a smart vacuum and uses its suction power to suck one of the Decepticons away from the fuel source before it could be stolen. Via a camera on one of the Decepticon robot's chests, Megatron remotely views his defeat and roars in anger as Red Knight and Bumblebee high-five. Mission Red 5 JingDong Micro Movie #1[2]
Following the Decepticon attack, Red Knight, Optimus, and Bumblebee are out on the open road with the mysterious purple energy source still in tow. This time, the Autobots are also accompanied by helicopter small drones carrying consumer goods.
