Revision as of 12:46, 8 February 2015
- Killer Punch is a Predacon from the Beast Wars Neo section of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Killer Punch (キラーパンチ Kirā Panchi) is the Intelligence Officer of Magmatron's Predacons and is utterly obsessed with collecting information. His every strategy, his every move, is centered around the ultimate goal of amassing further intel on absolutely everyone and everything. Even his special attack, the "Head Punch", secretly doubles as a homing device which gathers data on those it pulverizes. Oh yes, Killer Punch is a sneaky, deceitful master of setting traps and collecting intel.
And this obsession has promptly driven him bonkers. The shear volume of data Killer Punch has collected on friend and foe alike has turned him into a paranoid conspiracy theorist who'll believe almost anything. For instance, one of his favorite pet theories is that Ultra Magnus was a Decepticon agent. Oh yeah. They don't make tinfoil hats big enough for the likes of Killer Punch.
