Decepticons, Mayhem Attack Squad |
"Photon Eliminator? That is sooooooo 2006." |
Vain, image-obsessed, and always trying to be on top of the latest trends, Needlenose is without a doubt one of the hippest Decepticons you have ever met on the battlefield. Many an Autobot hesitate to pull the trigger when encountering him due to his chatty nature about what is fresh and popular in current Cybertron culture. Alongside him are his two Targetmaster partners. The aloof and even-natured Sunbeam, who enjoys being tied with a robot who is keeping him in the loop with what is cool and the stressful mechanic Zputty, who s all about function over form and does not share Needlenose's outlook on life. Aside from his pair of sentient armaments, he carries a long-range rifle used to pick off Autobots from far away since he rarely likes to be in the heat of a battle. He also has a 4C Cyro Coolant Concussion Cannon, but only because it's the latest weapon on the market. Even in war old habits die hard. |
