PROFILE
Headstrong doesn't listen to anybody, particularly his friends. He's so certain
of himself that he doesn't acknowledge others' opinions. He's smug and arrogant,
and believes that everyone would be better off if everyone minded his own
business. Nothing can dissuade him once has decided upon a course of action,
no matter how foolish that course appears to be. And once he begins something,
his commitment is total and unwavering. Knowing that he is not as strong,
intelligent or fearless as some of the other Predacons, Headstrong puts up his
stubborn front as a shield to hide his deep-rooted insecurity. Still, he makes
a formidable foe. The best way to attack him is not with weapons, but with
psychology. Question his resolve and his abilities and he's more likely to
collapse from the weight of his own nagging doubts than from a direct hit by a
laser cannon.
ABILITIES
In rhinoceros mode, Headstrong can achieve speeds of 60 miles per hour for short
periods. At full speed, his horn can puncture a three-foot thick steel slab.
It can also release a highly corrosive acid on contact, greatly enhancing its
destructive capability. In robot mode, he uses a plasma sphere shooter, which
emits a stream of glowing balls of energy that explode on contact. He also
carries a distraction sword, which bends nearby light so that an opponent
can't properly see where Headstrong actually is as the two battle. Headstrong
combines with his fellow Predacons to form Predaking.
WEAKNESSES
In addition to his knack for talking himself into foolish, dangerous predicament
s, Headstrong often suffers from impaired mobility due to bearing problems
within his joints. He also has very poor eyesight.
