Description
"Trick or treat, honey. Trick or treat."
Humanized version of Vortex (G1) and Flipsides (G1).
The scene is inspired by this song and the incidents taken place in Flames of Yesterday, a prose story from Transformers: Wings Universe.
Vortex is a sadistic interrogator. Before being lured to the dark side, Vortex and his other four Combaticon buddies were once part of an Autobot Elite Guard special ops unit. The way Vortex interrogated the Decepticon prisoners made other Elite Guard members feel uncomfortable, so he had to follow Onslaught's order and interrogate them in private.
During a mission in Median, the Combaticons met several female Autobots who worked on the archaeological dig site. One of them was Flipsides.
Flipsides is actually a sleeper agent placed into the Autobot ranks. She has no memory of her former self, so she will believe she's an Autobot until the intricate timer mechanism buried inside her programming triggers and awakens her Decepticon persona. She was the coordinator on the dig site, and she secretly aided the Decepticon thugs when the Elite Guardsmen were ambushed by the 'Cons.
When Vortex was investigating the area, a Decepticon hit his helicopter alt mode with a chemical cannon. He was forced to enter stasis lock and crashed on the ground. While everybody was busy trying to locate Vortex, Flipsides told them where Vortex was and taunted that the Combaticon was a lousy flier...
... and now the lousy flier is going to have his revenge. Or maybe he just wants to give his poor victim a good scare before he brutally tortures her to death.
You can never understand all those crazy thoughts inside a maniac's head.

Thank you! The scene just came across my mind when I was listening to that song. I just had to draw it.
What's that idea you wanted to tell me?

Looks pretty spooky! I love her hair style

Haha, thanks! I thought it would be fun to draw a girl with short hair this time. That's how I pictured Flipsides's human form in my head when I read that story, anyway. Glad you liked it!

Awesome! You think you do a group picture of the Combaticons like you did with the Stunicons?
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm considering it, but I'm afraid I may not have the time to get it done properly... Maybe I'll give it a try when I have more time to draw some new stuff.

The Combaticons are AWESOME. I just loved how the author portrayed their characters in that official prose story.

I just love them, no matter what they are in they are just fabulous

Whew. I just played through Fall of Cybertron, and I got a pretty good impression of Vortex and the other Combaticons (although I must admit, as a die hard 'con fan I am not difficult to impress). Now we have a version of Vortex who is completely unhinged, maybe one of several. It's difficult to keep track, with all the versions of a character that are floating around...

Wow, you've played through the whole game? Sounds pretty awesome!
I didn't know much about the Combaticons and their background stories until I read that official prose story and re-watched a few G1 episodes. Now I'm in love with those guys. They are just so interesting.
Oh, I know how you feel, hon. Sometimes I have difficulty recognizing these characters too because there are so many different versions of them in a fandom as big as Transformers. I have to check the info on TF wiki from time to time to get to know their characters better... It can be quite confusing sometimes.

Holy...damn, that's CREEPY!!!
Really, just the look Vortex is giving her... *shudders*
SO amazing!! xD

Well, he's meant to look creepy here since he's a sadistic 'Con. He's capable of doing many horrible things when he gets creative, you know.
Thank you!

Why do all the most interesting Decepticons seem to be serial killers? You can't tell me Vortex doesn't give off Hannibal Lecter vibes here.

Well, you know the rules. Villains are always more interesting, and they become even more interesting when they're acting insanely evil.
But I have to admit Vortex was actually kind of adorable when he was still an Autobot. I loved how the author wrote the Combaticons and their characters in that official prose story. The story was pretty entertaining, though.

Wonder who's the more sadistic copter; Vortex or Airrachnid?
Really? I'll have to check out that story sometime then.
π: 0 β©: 1
The mere thought of these two sadistic copters working together made me shudder. SO SCARY.
You can find the story here if you're interested. It's a rather entertaining fic, IMO.
π: 0 β©: 1
And now that we've brought the two of them up, somewhere someone is working on a fanfic where they're in a relationship. Breakdown suddenely disappears under strange circumstances and Vortex shows up as a new member of the con crew, working alongside Airrachnid in the torture department. What starts out as a competitive "Who's the bigger sadist" rivalry becomes as close to a healthy respect as either can muster and ends with Vortex giving Arcee to Airrachnid as a gift or something.
...God I need to get out more, my brain is starting to scare me.

... you've enlightened me. The idea is brilliant! Now I wish they could add Vortex in the TFP cast so we can see something awesome like this happen in the show. It would be FANTASTIC.

Well the season finale is coming up soon, who knows who could show up at the last minute. And since Screamer's been welcomed back to the fold, he can always find some way of bringing the Combaticons into the group. Not like Megs would turn them down; he's lost Hardshell, Airrachnid, Breakdown...twice technically, and I'm pretty sure he finds Knock-out insufferable.
Who knows what could happen next season?

I'd love to see the Combaticons show up in TFP, but I think the writers might probably add the Constructicons to the cast first. I don't know, I just have a feeling they would introduce the Constructicons first if they wanna bring some Gestalt Transformers into this show. It's just a hunch.
I guess the bots might not be able to revive Cybertron successfully. Not until the end of Season 3, unless the staff have no intention to continue this series once Season 2 ends. If the bots can go back to Cybertron, they won't stay on Earth, and their "human friends" (or the "annoying brats", since the kids re getting more and more annoying in recent episodes) will surely be heartbroken. It appears that the writers always feel the need to emphasize on the so-called friendship/bond between the humans and the Autobots in TFP, so they will probably try their best to keep the bots stay on Earth in order to give the bots a good reason to babysit the kids.

Fair point, personally I kinda wish Starscream had remained on the outs with the cons long enough for him to try bringing in the Combaticons. But you're probably right; Constructicons have actually been mentioned as a subgroup in the show.
I'm only gonna point out one thing; this set up isn't exactly new for the Transformers. We have no idea how the revitalization process actually works, and with energon supplies at an all time low thanks to the war, odds are the bots would have to remain on Earth if for no other reason than to get enough to keep the reconstruction process fueled. Honestly that might be an interesting direction; split the forces between Cybertron and Earth; Team Prim remains on Earth after starting up the recovery process in order to defend humanity and to harvest energon while another group (Ultra Magnus and the Wreckers, Engineering corps, hell even Grimlock and the Dynobot) oversees construction on cybertron and keeping the decepticons in line. The reverse can work for the Cons too; and since Megatron doesn't give a shit about humanity, he'd be much more brazen in his harvesting/conquests for the sake of rebuilding Cybertron. And since the Cons always seem to outnumber the Autobots, they've proably got more than enough soldiers or subgroups (Constructicons, Combaticons, Stunticons) to split between The Nemesis and Kaon. At least that's a better reason for the bots to stick around than just their "pet" humans. And I agree, they have become more obnoxious this past season...except Raf and Fowler for some reason.

I like the idea of Starscream bringing the Combaticons back in G1, but the concept wouldn't work well in TFP. Starscream had already tried to create his clone army, and he failed miserably. He got all the Omega Keys, yet he still didn't get the upper hand when he tried to negotiate with Megatron. Sometimes I doubt the writers just wanted to make Starscream a plain laughingstock for entertainment...
Hmm, that makes sense. And it would be cool to see more characters. Sometimes I couldn't help but wonder where all the other bots have been to, since Cybertron looks like a barren place and the only life forms living on the dead planet are those scary Insecticons.
And considering the writers' ability, I don't think the idea of "split the force" would work in this case. Look at how they treated Dreadwing and Wheeljack: These two were meant to be important (at least they're way more important than those we-all-look-alike drones on the Nemesis), but sometimes they just disappeared from the show like they never existed at all. If the writers could barely handle these few characters, how are they supposed to handle more characters and write a decent story? It would be a disaster.
As to the kids... well, they've become insufferable, and I can no longer endure their nonsense. Another interesting fact is that the Decepticons actually spent some time and efforts to kidnap the "right" kids to threaten the Autobots when Megatron demanded the Keys. Honestly, the 'Cons can grab any random human as their meat shield whenever the Autobots and Decepticons engage in battles. I'm sure the tactic can be pretty efficient because Optimus will always put the human's safety first.
