They all carry rifles? (Clever.)

[GoktimusPrime]

Actually, not all of them carry rifles... some of them have pistols.

though you're kinda close

So... aside from being G1 characters w/ vehicular alt modes who have guns, what do these characters all have in common with each other?

[Sky Shadow]

Hmm... no advances on 'they all have guns'? They all have heads? They all have kibble in robot mode? They all have mental problems? They've all shot someone from their own side? They all like energon? They've all been injured?

(Clue?)

[GoktimusPrime]

There's a spoiler tagged clue (kinda) in my last post... so you're on the right track with the guns.
