Motto: “Fear My Wrath!”
“In preparation for returning to space, MEGATRON repaints his armor. He prefers these colors, because they allow him to disappear against the dark background of outer space. There, his actions are made silent by the vacuum, and blackness hides his movements. Hidden in the dark, he seems to attack from nowhere. He is a ghost in the cosmos, striking down his enemies without hesitation, and without mercy.”

Motto: “Without law, all is chaos”
“Graduate of the same class as Optimus Prime at the Autobot Academy, Sentinel Prime is commander of a squad of the best the Autobots have to offer – the Elite Guard. Though he is a powerful warrior and a cunning leader, he is also obsessed with following rules to the absolute letter. He is unbending in his interpretation of procedure, and dislikes the way Optimus Prime and his crew improvise. If he had his way, that whole group would be sent back to Basic Programming.”

Name: Blitzwing
Faction: Decepticons
Function: Decepticon Berserker
Motto: “Whoooo! I’m freaking out!”
“Even by Decepticon standards, Blitzwing is totally insane. He’s got three personalities packed into his cyberium-steel chassis, and he argues with himself almost as often as he argues with other Decepticons. The only person he listens to without interrupting is Megatron because all three of his personalities are terrified of the Decepticon commander. He carries a superheater cannon and a hyberfrost emitter to burn or freeze his enemies.”
