Description
***A 'repaint' I did using Instructions for Armada Skywarp downloaded from Hasbro's official Transformers website, [link] ***Ok, here's my first completed CCC Character for Transtopia here. Based on the details given by MasterBlaster, which were as follows:
Mold: Armada Skywarp
Faction: Autobot
Colors: Freedom Gundam's paint scheme
Name: Freedom Fighter
Function: Seeker
Personality: Openly open to the idea of freedom for all, but can get tricked, also like that of 'ol OP. Cloned from Starscream and Optimus Prime.
I think i came about as close as possible to the original Gundam on the repaint (Thanks to BA for the advice with the final details and such). I hafta say though, no offense MasterBlaster, but this made me hate Gundams even more then I already did. As for the bio, I had to take a few creative liberties to try and work in the details MB specified, but at the same time make it sound "real" and flow well. Hopefully I accomplished that and MB's ok with the changes and "stretches" I made. I'm not crazy about it myself, and think it's a little "cheesy", but it was the best I could do trying to incorporate the source "tidbits." On a side note, this was also my first attempt at a MTMTE bio, which surprisingly, doesn't give me all THAT much more room to work like I originally thought it would, heh. Oh well.

BIO
FREEDOM FIGHTER is one of the most unique and interesting cases in the Autobot army. Found in the cloning labs of the mad Decepticon scientist SHOCKBLAST, he was a clone of the deceased Decepticon STARSCREAM, with vast “improvements” made to his form. Though most of the other experiments weren’t complete when we apprehended and locked SHOCKBLAST up, this one actually came too, though with absolutely no memory whatsoever. I took this young bot, new to the world, under my wing, and raised and trained his as best I could. I guess you can say I was what the Earthlings called a “Father” figure to him. I tried to build on the ideals and feelings that made STARSCREAM join our cause, however briefly, and FREEDOM FIGHTER openly accepted them. He has become a ‘bot after my own spark, if I do say so myself. I wish all our soldiers were as energetic and gung-ho about the Autobot cause. Now, an accomplished warrior in his own right, I know he will continue to fight for and spread the Autobot cause well into the future. …Though…we can only hope that no traces of his Decepticon heritage eventually creep up…
WEAPONS & ABILITIES
Cloned from STARSCREAM, who was already one of the most impressive Decepticons, both in terms of speed and firepower, and then modified and improved even further, FREEDOM FIGHTER contains a great deal more power then I’m completely comfortable with any rookie soldier having. With his dual Vulcan cannons, which can also double as rocket boosters, he’s one of the most heavily armed warriors, and one of our fastest fliers. While most of the students at the academy have to learn how to hold a rifle properly, FREDOM FIGHTER here was instead taught restraint with his awesome weaponry. While successful, FREEDOM FIGHTER has been known to get a little trigger happy when in a panic.
WEAKNESSES
When teaching FREEDOM FIGHTER restraint, I may have been a bit to firm, because now that he’s a soldier in his own right, FREEDOM FIGHTER refuses to take the spark of an enemy, no matter the circumstances. He says who is he to deny his opponents the ultimate freedom of life? How can I argue with that? Also, I worry that while FREEDOM FIGHTER eagerly accepted the Autobot cause, he does so a little to naively. A few strong words about freedom and injustice will have him rushing off to save the day, without really thinking things through. Most of us had to search within our sparks long and hard to find the right path to take, and that is something I think FREEDOM FIGHTER has yet to really do. I only hope that when the time comes for him to so some spark-searching of his own, he doesn’t find anything evil left in there by SHOCKBLAST.
PAYLOAD Mini-Con
“As if I didn’t have enough to worry about, now I gotta look out for this slaggin’ kid?”
PAYLOAD is a veteran Mini-Con who’s seen his share of tough times. Having survived the Pre-Unicron Battles Cybertron, where Mini-Cons were forced to be used like common tools by both Autobot and Decepticon alike, PAYLOAD has become a bitter and disenfranchised little ‘bot. When peace was finally restored on Cybertron, the first thing this little Mini-Con did was arm himself to the teeth, swearing that he would never be used as a mere tool ever again. When the Terrorcons and Decepticons started the age-old conflict again, most of the Mini-Cons sided with the Autobots. Feeling a little more confident, a still reluctant PAYLOAD managed to make himself join the fight against the “greater evil”, the Decepticons. Disagreeable, difficult, and reluctant to follow orders, the Autobots thought that partnering PAYLOAD up with such an energetic and good-willed ‘bot like FREEDOM FIGHTER might rub off on him. In fact, it’s just the other way around, and PAYLOAD is trying to teach the young Autobot to question things more, and not be so naive.

Ooo-kay. Payload seems really nice, color and personality-wise, but FF... Ick. I'm sorry to say this to ya, Assey, but those colors look way too much "American" for me. Heck, even his bio sounds stereotipically "American". (Almost like one of those Army recruitment commercials. Ugh.) Even worse is that the color scheme looks like it was switched around a bit from Universe Ramjet, which only makes this look even more awful-er than U-Ramjet.
And the source inspiration was a Gundam toy?!? Hate gundam. Hate it even more since they replaced the Energon cartoon up here on Saturday mornings with Gundam SD. A whole half-hour of super deformed .

Didn't like much about doing this either, heh. Especially since one of my "rules" that i stated in the CCC forum was "NO HOMAGES". Apparently i need to make myself a bit more clear. I did it anyways though, but i wasn't happy about it. You can see a pic of the gundam this had to be based on in my PB account. (Should be right on the front page.) I think i got as close as possible to that using the mold restrictions I have and all. As for the bio, admitedly, it was cheesy as hell. Not much else I could do to "pull this off" though, with the bits I had to incorporate and all. I suposes as long as MB is still happy with it, it's a sucess (still haven't heard his opinion on it yet), though it's definitly not one of my prouder moments, heh.
