Description
I've had this little bot floating around in my mind since the Transformers movie came out in the summer. Her name's Rocket, and she transforms into a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R. As you can see, her head is literally the head of the bike, the handlebars fun little horns/pig tails, the cables making a pony tail. The little mini-windshield can snap down with the nod of her head like a welding mask, creating a cool visor for battle. Her eyes basically ARE the headlights, and the blinkers chill on her shouders, while the muffler turns into a kick-ass cannon. The leather seats are located on her stomach and the small of her back (there are usually two--one long one for the driver and one small one for the passenger), the small one is where the Autobot insignia is located (see the back view pic). With the wheels on her legs, allowing her to skate on land similarly to Bone Crusher, this forces her to transform in motion.

For those of you who would actually like to listen to the story that came with her, here it is. The story circles around Kitchel Witwickey, Sam and Mikaela's daughter. She graduated from high school but didn't go right into college as she wasn't sure what she wanted to do in life yet. Poor thing's in a depressing doldrum of uncertainty. To try to get her mood up, Sam gives her the family car--a 2008 Camaro he affectionately calls Bumblebee. She's glad to have a car, but by then it's just a little outdated.

Slowly she starts to discover that Bumblebee is more than just a regular classic Camaro, and then finally Bumblebee is forced to reveal his true form in order to protect her from Starscream, who for some reason has returned to earth.

The rest of the Autobots then reveal themselves to her, including Prowl, Wheeljack and Hot Rod, who arrived from scattered in space after Cybertron was destroyed and Optimus sent out the beacon.

Kitchel (or "Kit") decides to help the Autobots as a human scout, since for some strange reason Starscream is back with a new Decepticon following, including Soundwave, Skywarp, Sunstorm, and Scourge.

While the Decepticons are springing random attacks that have the Autobots thoroughly confused, Kit hears on the news that a mysterious submarine has been seen poking about in the deepest regions of the Pacific Ocean.

Later, Kit is hanging out in the Autobots' headquarters (an abandoned underground silo), when she notices something in Optimus's quarters--a piece of metal about the size of a phone book. She barely touches it when suddenly there is a bright flash of light that leaves her whole body tingling. She leaves quickly, not mentioning it to anyone. A few days later she stumbles upon another secret--two pieces of a dead Autobot. Once again, she barely touches it when another bright flash of light occurs. When it clears, the body has knit itself back together, and the bot is very much alive, not to mention very confused. Optimus and the rest of the Autobots are stunned to find Jazz alive and confounded as to how it happened, though Kit has an idea, which she predictably keeps to herself.

Only a few days later, while she's hanging out with Bumblebee, Kit begins to feel ill--her muscles are stiff and heavy. Suddenly she is hit by a wave of extreme pain as she feels her body being pulled apart and changed somehow. She goes completely blind, her voice going raspy and strangely mechanical, as she pleads for Bumblebee to help her. She passes out shortly after.

When she comes to, the Autobots have to explain that somehow her contact with the fragment of the All Spark caused her to both revive Jazz and turn into a robot herself. Needless to say she's a little stunned. When she finally warms up to the idea a week later, Bumblebee takes her to her favorite motorcycle store and teaches her to take the shape of a red Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R. They decide to call her "Rocket", since she fondly referred to racing bikes as "crotch rockets". And they can still call her Kit for short.

Anyway, I'm dragging on. Basically the gist of the plot is: Starscream has pulled together all the Decepticons that he could find to return to Earth. He knows about the piece of the All Spark, and has sent two bots, who combine to form one huge submarine that is probing around to find and retrieve their fallen comrade's bodies, which they will revive with the All Spark, while the others distract the Autobots to keep them from seeing their true intent. When they do, will the Autobots be able to stop them before they revive Megatron, or will the war begin all over again?

Dun dun dun! Anyway, this is my pride and joy. I'm not a mechanical type of artist. In fact, I fail miserably most of the time. So just looking at this makes my head swell with pride
