Insecticon TICK

Name: Buckshot
Faction: Decepticons
Subgroup: Insecticon
Alt mode: Tick
Motto: Hit them hard and take what you want.

Made from a knock-off Hot Spot, a bunch of other TF rip offs, and a few miscellaneous toys.

Help me think of a good name for this "bottom-feeding brute".

I'm thinking he needs a bigger chin. You could also call him Rocky.

If you want an oldschool G1 sounding name, you have 2 directions to go in... the original Insecticons had names that referred to military ordinance (Kickback, Bombshell, Shrapnel), but also reflected special abilities each had.

The Deluxe Insecticons all had names that reflected their personalities (which means you'd have to give this guy one first).

Bloodlust (as mentioned earlier) isn't bad, but it sounds a bit over-dramatic.

Boresight?
Smoothbore?
Hollowpoint?
Squib?
Buckshot? (if he's a deer tick?)

I like this guy's bug mode quite a bit. The G1 base of the robot mode leaves him a little primitive in the articulation category, but I like him. I like that you went for the classic purple/black colour scheme.
