If a [[Transformer]] needs to restrain another and more sophisticated means aren't available, they can always fall back on simply tying their enemy/opponent/victim up with '''energon chains'''. Energon chains are applied with the aid of a gun, which doubles as the chains' generator.

[[File:Sideburnsobsession energon chains.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just like in my Japanese comic books! If a Transformer needs to restrain another and more sophisticated means aren't available, they can always fall back on simply tying their enemy/opponent/victim up with energon chains. Energon chains are applied with the aid of a gun, which doubles as the chains' generator. If the gun is destroyed, so are the chains.
