Hunt for the Decepticons
Hunt for the Decepticons is a promotion associated with the 2010 Transformers toyline.
Fiction
Optimus Prime needs you and Bumblebee to locate and battle Decepticons that are hidden on Earth in the Hunt for the Decepticons campaign. If you prove qualified by accomplishing three missions, you will be invited to train at a secret Autobot facility.
Overview
Unlock new missions by entering Coordinate Codes found on specially marked Transformers products in the 2010 Transformers toyline.
Mission 1
Axor was speeding in a tunnel next to a river in downtown Shanghai. Bumblebee went to stop him before he destroyed the tunnel and flooded the city. Bumblebee repeatedly crashed into him until he rolled over and stopped.
Alternate ending: Axor crashed into Bumblebee enough times that Bumblebee was forced to stop. You are then told that Axor is tough and to continue the pursuit.
Mission 2
Terradive was flying over the skies of Paris, waiting to attack the city's landmarks. You took an Autobot fighter jet to stop him. He was quite agile and often evaded your sights while firing missiles at you, but you managed to shoot him down and drive him off before running out of fuel.
Mission 3
Starscream attacked a mine in South America in a bid to gather unbeatable amounts of energy. Bumblebee was sent in to fight him. The battle was fierce as Starscream was much more powerful, but fighting cautiously brought Bumblebee victory. With this mission, you gain Optimus Prime's trust and are allowed to join the ranks of the Autobots.
Training
Before human allies are permitted to join in the hunt for Decepticon leader Megatron, they must train in four abilities (speed, strength, skill and fireblast) to prove their readiness. Additional training in each of these areas (unlocked through the use of still more Coordinate Codes) qualifies the trainee as a member of the Elite Guard.
From the training hub, not only can prospective Autobot allies take part in these training exercises, they can also print out an identification card and progress report, or read information about The Most Wanted Decepticons.
Mission 4
The final mission requires the defeat of Megatron. This concludes the battle - for now - but interested trainees may continue their training at the secret facility.
The Most Wanted Decepticons
Available through the training facility are profiles and wallpapers of the Autobots' primary targets in the Hunt for the Decepticons. The intel passwords required to access this information can be found in several "Hunt for the Decepticons"-branded exclusives.
