The Energon Pub

The "Bots of Honor" project is well and truly on track for release in the next couple of months, and to help keep it fresh in your minds, we'll be posting a 'mugshot' of a different character each week.

Naturally, we're going to start with the star of the series; OPTIMUS PRIME...



Next, is the sinister BANZAI-TRON



This week, it's the brilliant (and insane) detective, NIGHTBEAT.



This week, that bad guy with the spark of a hero, DINOBOT



This time, it's the sadistic spider-bot, TARANTULAS



This week, the diligent and determined Law-bot, STREET WISE



This week, the sinister sweep, SCOURGE



This week, the battle-hardened hero, GRIMLOCK



This week, the maniacal mad-man, LORD ZARAK



This week, the ingenious inventor, WHEELJACK



This week, the ferocious fighter, CYCLONUS



This week, the lonesome warrior, RODIMUS PRIME



This week, the conniving and calculating, STARSCREAM



This week, the junked-out and jovial, WRECK-GAR



You can follow the project on Deviant Art and Facebook

The whole project looks quite promising. Keep up the good work!

Cool, now I get to look forward to new Mosaics and Mugshots!
Wonder who the next character will be...

It's a neat idea, but please - drop 'Justice is the only constant in the universe'. It's preposterous pseudo-intellectual nonsense, and certainly doesn't fit if you're including Decepticons.

Change, yes. Abstract concepts like justice? No. At best it's meaningless, at worst it's mildly insulting.

Hahaha, very much agreed. Quite daft.

My God those sound like quotes right out of the super villain handbook.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure their going for a super robot angle in this one. If you prefer logic and don't like quotes like "Our burning justice is the heart that drives universe!" and the like, your gonna HATE this.

Even that makes more sense, coz it sounds like their own form of justice and policing is what ensures a wide variety of aliens to thrive in the known universe.
The bots of honour quote is too overly general. It comes off too much like the writer doesn't speak english as a first language, ye know?
I don't really care that much about it though, just bored and on the computer, haha.

I do hope we can follow the project on this website as well. I don't want a Facebook account and deviantart is blocked on my network.

I would love to see more of Dinobot though I don't think his face is right, he looks too calm. Dinobot was always a step away from a rage attack especially when Rattrap was around.

I agree that his face doesn't quite look right but I don't see the calmness in the expression. Unless you mean calm and collective and about to kick someones butt, because that's how the expression looks in the picture IMO.

Very awesome, I love Tarantulas.

Haha, I am loving this project, and have seen everyone of these mugshots. I do have a minor gripe though, and I would rather see Grimlock's dinohead, instead of his robohead. Scourge's is pretty cool, and I like Sreetwise's quote.

Looks cool, gotta a question: according to Scourge, the sweeps have only one goal. But they seem to have 3 goals?
