Description
...Yah. I have no idea what he really would look like as an Autobot, but I still think he looks damn sexy, Autobot or Neutral.Imagine him gesturing behind his shoulder. "Nah, sorry guys. My master's kinda waitin' for me at the dojo. Some other time, maybe."
TF(C) Hasbro
In case you're confused:
How many GROUND-based Decepticons are there? In Cybertron's history, the Decepticons were a military race who protected the manufacturing robots (the Autobots), so they needed air-based alt modes. Lockdown (like Oil Slick and Strika) is ground-based, but unlike Oil Slick and Strika, he really isn't that big compared to the Autobots. Plus, if you look at Lockdown's faction symbol, it looks more like the Autosigil than it does like the Deceptibrand..
..plus he's a ninja.
Here's the finished version!

That last note on its own may not make sense to those not familiar with Animated canon; no Decepticon was ever trained inMaster Yoketron's dojo. This has led to a general consensus that Lockdown was once an Autobot, but realized he just loved mods and money more than he loved fighting with honor.

Yup, the enticing song of credits and modifications probably sounded nicer than fighting for subjective ideas like "honor" and "freedom for all sentient beings". Hmmm.. Perhaps he figured he was doing the smart thing.
And then there's the issue of Oil Slick-- what about him?

I seen a strong influence from Kung Fu Panda here. I could be wrong. Anyway, I always wondered what forced him over the deep end. The mind could only reel. Kudos on the awesome design.

Of course he does-- once I watched KFP and Animated, I laughed and danced around because they ARE similar!
...Though I find Lockdown to be more.. endearing.

xenacee In reply to Metallikato [2010-07-30 18:29:35 +0000 UTC]
Yeah so was I. I mean Lockdown is obviously a widely liked character! He's popping up everywhere so I wouldn't be surprised if he showed up Prime. So far it looks good. I like the designs, some are very TFA-eqsue. Except they made Arcee Blue >_> Which wouldn't bug me at all if Revenge of the Fallen didn't have the Arcee 'sisters' cause every time I see her now I'm going to think it's Chromia xD They must be scared to market pink transformers or something xD They could have made her purple, but anyways I don't get the channel the HUB is going to be on so I'll be watching it on youtube xD

Metallikato In reply to xenacee [2010-07-30 18:49:48 +0000 UTC]
They even have a Bayformers figure of him! (That's the only Lockdown figure I have, but I still love it. Though it's scary.)
WHY did they make Arcee BLUE?! Grrrr. I thought she was Chromia when I first saw her!
Though it was a pleasant surprise to see just how much TFP Ratchet looks like he did in TFA! I'm aching to see Prowl and Bulkhead in it as well, AND LOCKDOWN. I know TFP will focus on the Great Wars, but Lockdown was in on it along with the obvious characters.
I'll have to watch it on YouTube as well because I cut the cable after they kept charging higher (even though when the service started they told me they'd keep the price locked. Bastards. I kept the internet, though. ). Thank Primus for YouTube!

xenacee In reply to Metallikato [2010-07-30 19:19:29 +0000 UTC]
I have no idea why they made her pink xD It's so random! I was scared that Ratchet was going to look like his movie counterpart but I'm so so so glad he looks like Animated Ratch! I wish they would have shown us more designs at the panel. Bulkhead was like one of the main ones I wanted to see!
I hate cable so much xD They charge you ridiculous prices! Last month they took a bunch of channels off of my plan without telling me! And now they are taking away my ESPN! I gotta watch NASCAR somehow! Oh youtube, I have no idea what the world would be like without it! lol

Metallikato In reply to xenacee [2010-07-30 21:36:08 +0000 UTC]
Cable SUCKS! The only things I ever ended up watching was Cartoon Network, History Channel, Discovery Channel, SciFi... Lots of documentaries. (I'm guilty of being like Prowl: I'm a sucker for documentaries). Oh those bastards! I think that once the introductory period is over, they stop being nice to you because they're just jerks. YouTube saves my butt when it comes to TF, and hopefully it'll help me when "Prime" comes out!
When I saw Ratchet's TFP design, I fangirl-squealed. It wasn't fair for them to release only a handful of designs! It's not like we're going to steal them or anything: we just want to SEEEEE! I hope they base Bulkhead off his TFA design, because he wouldn't be Bulkhead otherwise.

xenacee In reply to Metallikato [2010-07-30 22:31:29 +0000 UTC]
xD I like documentaries too. That's all my dad and I watched was the History Channel. We watched Scifi for the corny movies, because it was just too much of a good time making fun of them! There is nothing really good on TV anyways, except I do enjoy watching Glee. Other then that there isn't really anything I look forward to watching.
Yes, that is what I'm nervous about. Bulkhead has to look like Bulkhead! I will not allow otherwise! XD
