New Transformers Characters Unveiled

Activision has just unveiled two new characters for their new Transformers title.  The two new playable characters include Ironhide and Skywarp.

Ironhide

• Autobot
• Class: Soldier
• Chassis: Truck
• Primary Weapon: EMP Shotgun
• Abilities: Whirlwind, Dash
• Description: Ironhide is the oldest Autobot on the team.  He is the slowest Autobot on the team.  He is also the meanest, toughest, orneriest Autobot on the team.  He is most definitely yesterday’s model, but he was built to last -seemingly forever.  He is a soldier, first and foremost, but his tough exterior hides a deep compassion for life.  He is one of Optimus’ most trusted advisors on all matters.

Skywarp

• Decepticon
• Class: Scout
• Chassis: Jet
• Primary Weapon: Thermo Rocket Launcher
• Abilities: Cloak, Dash
• Description: Skywarp possesses cloaking technology which he uses to sow destruction upon his enemies.  Skywarp isn’t the most intelligent Transformers character in the Decepticon force, so he needs to be continually guided and told what to do.  Regardless, once set upon a path, Skywarp will achieve his goal with quiet, ruthless efficiency.
