Millions of pouches, pouches for me.

Helping Platemails in their objective to fulfill their objective is the fact they are all equipped with the most advanced tool belt known to Mini-Cons. It's even been rumored that their tool belts could even contain a Prime Artifact. When partnered with a larger Transformer, Platemails can bestow powerful defensive abilities on them.
