TRIGGERHAPPY

"Un cañón, una diversión."
"Have gun, have fun!"

Personalidad: Se sospecha que muchos de los circuitos de su centro de análisis lógico están desconectados. Triggerhappy es una especie de loco que cree que todo es una gran broma. Incluso en el centro de la peor batalla, suele estar demasiado ocupado riendo como para fijarse hacia dónde dispara o en quién le está disparando. A veces, parece emborracharse con el sonido de sus propios disparos. Se tambalea, feliz, y acaba cayendo al suelo. Hace millones de años, Triggerhappy practicaba en un campo de entrenamiento Decepticon el uso de un cañón de protones. Resbaló del aerodeslizador sobre el que se ejercitaba, y cayó de cabeza mientras disparaba salvajemente en todas direcciones. Una docena de sus entrenadores fueron desintegrados. Triggerhappy, que temía lo peor, se llevó una gran alegría cuando el comandante del campo le felicitó por su pericia y le graduó. Desde entonces ha adoptado este estilo de combate, aunque nadie está seguro de si se debe a su éxito inicial o a haber sufrido daños en los circuitos de su cabeza con el golpe.

Triggerhappy forma equipo con Blowpipe, el envidioso y deshonesto cuñado de Lord Zarak, el malvado líder de los nebulanos. En Nebulos, Blowpipe dirigió la carrera de Lord Zarak y es el principal responsable de su llegada al poder. Cuando Lord Zarak cayó en desgracia y se alió con los Decepticons, Blowpipe creyó conveniente seguirle.

Long suspected of having one too many disconnected circuits in his logic center, Triggerhappy is a crazed, computerized creep who thinks everything is a big joke. Even in the midst of a raging battle, he's usually too busy laughing uncontrollably and drooling lubricant to look where he's shooting. Worse for him, he doesn't pay much attention to who's shooting in his direction either. He is seemingly intoxicated by the sounds of his own gunfire, staggering about blissfully as he blasts away. The occasional battlefield success he has is a result of the panic his wild shooting sprees sometimes generate among opponents. Those who've known him for a long time trace his erratic behavior back millions of years ago, to an episode in a Decepticon warrior-trainee boot camp: Triggerhappy was practicing the use of a proton machine gun while riding a hoverboard. He slipped and fell on his head, all the while firing wildly away. A half dozen of his teachers were unintentionally disintegrated. Fearing the worst, Triggerhappy was happily surprised when the camp's commander lauded him for his lethal expertise and graduated him on the spot. He has adopted that manic offensive strategy ever since, although no one is sure if he acts this way because of his initial success with it or because the bump on his head shook a few wires loose.

Triggerhappy is paired with Blowpipe, the conniving, envious brother-in-law of the evil Nebulan group's leader, Lord Zarak. On Nebulos, Blowpipe managed Lord Zarak's political career and was chiefly responsible for arranging his rise to fame and power. When Lord Zarak fell from grace and allied himself with the Decepticons, Blowpipe thought it prudent to follow, so he did.

Habilidades: Triggerhappy puede convertirse en un caza turborreactor, con una velocidad máxima de 2.970 km/h y una autonomía de vuelo de 6.000 km. Está equipado con dos cañones fotónicos gemelos de disparo rápido, utilizados sobre todo contra otros artefactos voladores. La bioingeniería hace posible que Blowpipe se transforme en un poderoso cañón de aire comprimido, mientras Triggerhappy permanece en su forma de robot.

Triggerhappy transforms to a turbo-thrust jet fighter, with a maximum speed of 1980 mph and range of 4,000 miles. He's equipped with two twin side-mounted, rapid-fire photon pulse guns, used mostly for attacks on other flying craft. Blowpipe is bio-engineered to have the ability to convert to a powerful compressed air cannon, which Triggerhappy wields in robot mode.

Debilidades: Dada su forma de combatir, Triggerhappy suele quedarse sin municiones en el momento menos adecuado -en el clímax de un contraataque Autobot, por ejemplo.

Needless to say, given the wasteful manner in which he uses his weapons, Triggerhappy often finds himself out of ammunition during the most inopportune occasions - such as in the middle of a full-scale Autobot counterattack.
