Description As noted by one , as thanks for receiving the Premium Membership from myself, he was able to design a lineart version [link] of our famed holographic girl from RiD (and her police officer version from Binaltech), only this time as a fully-fledged Autobot! While the colouring may not be perfect, I hope it was done to the best of specifications and as close to her predecessor as much as I could. If not, feel free to suggest some colours at whatever spots.

But for now, here's my profile for her - enjoy!

Name: T-AI
Gender: Female
Faction: Autobots
Alternate mode: Modified Honda sports car
Function: Autobot Archivist/Explorer/Warrior
Motto: “I’m more than just a pretty face – so watch out!”

Brief (Toy) Bio: Once a former archivist, T-AI had a desire to join the Autobot Academy so she could achieve her dream as an explorer beyond Cybertron. But her life took quite a turn when she was kidnapped and subjected to a failed Decepticon Super Soldier experiment, unwittingly giving her new Energon-based powers as a result. Now, she fights to take down the Decepticons, so no-one else could suffer the same pain she endured for Cybertron's sake!

Full Background: A while back, one wouldn't think of T-AI as a born Cybertronian - she was originally a tactical intelligence program until an accident somehow transferred her programming into a surviving protoform. Due to her memory banks containing sensitive archival information the shy and caring T-AI was given a job as an archivist, one which she grew bored of (plus a partial resentment to authority), and as a result she longed for the desire to join the Autobot Academy so she could become an explorer beyond Cybertron.

However, all that would change as the research facility she was working in was under attack by Decepticon forces, and despite being one of the few remaining survivors, she was kidnapped shortly after. Experimented in a failed Super-soldier project that involved the weaponization of Energon, T-AI was deemed a failure and was abandoned as a result. Unbeknownst to the Decepticons, she escaped, not only with a boost of confidence and personality but also with new Energon-based powers. Now for the sake of the future for Cybertron's residents and the innocents of other races, she intends on stopping the Decepticons at any cost necessary!

Galactic Powers and Abilities:

-Because of the experiment, T-AI gained the power to manipulate Energon into a various number of forms inside her superstructure, including energy bolts and a force field. However, prolonged usage would not only put a strain to her spark, but would also result in the crystallisation of her limbs (temporary in short bursts, permanent when constantly used).

-To avoid overreliance on her powers, T-AI carries a reversed-bladed katana (infused with an anti-beam coating) in compliance to Cybertronian laws. Due to her slight resentment at being stuck working at archives however, her shoulders conceal a pair of machine guns for long-range firepower, and unarmed, she possessed skills in gymnastics and martial arts.

-Due to her archivist background, T-AI possessed an internal database, e.g. culture, military and ancient history. She recently developed a liking to Earth, especially the Japanese culture, and even developed a hologram driver similar to Prowl, but in a holomatter form.

So, what do you think?

hasbro bothers to make one, fans go "can't wait for the takara version or nitpicks the most minor of complaints/imperfections"

To be frank, I don't know what RL stands for. But I do know is that I used Faber-Castell Polychromos Artists' Colour Pencils for the job. Still, any colours worth changing, or is it good? I couldn't help but wonder if I should have given her face and hands a slightly lighter shade of silver just in case.
