Transformers AOE film informatics Part 14: Lockdown


Even the Decepticons are afraid of this guy, because once Lockdown has been hired to track down a subject, nothing stops him from completing his transaction short of total deactivation! Answering only to his enigmatic "Creators", Lockdown holds himself above the Autobot/Decepticon war and sees both sides as squabbling children that he has to reign in personally. He doesn't think much higher of other civilized species across the galaxy (particularly humans), though isn't above working with them if it suits him. Lockdown.is working with Attinger to capture Optimus Prime for the humans in exchange for the Seed from the him, being provided unlimited access to all of Attinger's CIA resources.

Using his Supercharger, he stores the kinetic energy from racing in his alternate form and uses it to boost his own speed for short bursts. This is his favorite device... because his favorite tactic is to catch up with targets and sink in his Capture Hook for the up-close-and-personal kill. His other great weapon is the exposed skeletal spinal cord down his back, which gives him a level of agility that the average Cybertronian does not have. Lockdown is also been known to loot weaponry from the foes he kills, so his armoury is constantly changing!


ALTERNATE MODE
Lockdown transforms into a blue-grey 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700–4 Coupe.
