When Beast Convoy and Lio Convoy synchronized the power of their energy matrices, they transformed into Burning Convoy and Flash Lio Convoy respectively. Are these types of transformations common among matrix wielders like them? If so, what transformation does Big Convoy possess?
Dear Maximum Mammoth,
In order to promote cooperation and camaraderie among Convoy-type Transformers, Vector Sigma made a point of outfitting their Energon Matrices with the ability to resonate with each other. However, in one universe, Big Convoy's lingering hate for the Predacons over the death of his father was able to manifest in a sort of phantom resonance with Blue Big Convoy's extinguished Matrix, resulting in the birth of Blizzard Big Convoy.
Wreathed in white fur, Blizzard Big Convoy possessed the ability to supercool the air around him, freezing lesser foes dead in their tracks. In this Absolute Zero Field, only Big Convoy had the strength to still move, leaving him free to devastate his foes with the Blizzard Cannon. This form had none of Big Convoy's traditional bravado, his processors focused only on the elimination of his enemies.
However, as he became lost in his grief, he found himself unable to tell friend from foe, posing great risk to the Gung Ho’s crew of cadets. Only by uniting the warmth of their sparks to resist the cold were they able to embrace their commander and bring him back to the side of justice. It wasn’t until the final battle with Unicron that Big was able to truly master this form, resonating not with his grief, but with the memory of his father, purifying this ability and allowing him to banish the planet eater to the cold of space.

"Hey guys, check it out, I'm Sargent Slaughter, I have a fancy hat that means I can tell you what to do, I have my own action figure so you know I'm the coolest guy and I- ...he's right behind me, isn't he?"
"Something wrong with my gear, maggot?"

G.I. Joe A Real American Hero! 1993 - Code Name: Gung-Ho - U.S. Marine - Battle Corps - When the going gets rough, that's when the Marine Corps gets sent in. The same is true for G.I. Joe. When his buddies have their backs against the wall, Gung-Ho moves in to do some heavy butt-kicking. The other G.I. Joes claim Gung-Ho is the scariest, craziest jar-head who ever kicked and clawed his way out of the Corps' ultimate hole in the swamp - Parris Island! What kind of hard-case considers an anti-tank missile launcher a personal weapon? Gung-Ho, that's who!

Grandia 2 is one of the most underappreciated JRPG's I've ever come across.
The 3D models on the Dreamcast are definitely dated, but I still love the way they look! They absolutely hold up to this very day.
The music is so sweet. Tracks like "In Town Ageel" or really any track that plays in any town is a gem. All of the battle themes rock as well.
The voice acting and story aren't the best in the genre, but they're definitely not the worst.
The combat system is GENIUS. It's still turn-based but LOTS of strategy is involved. Almost like a dynamic timeline fused with ATB system. If you're fast enough and time your attacks just right you can delay or even cancel enemy attacks or spells and against some of the super challenging bosses, it's a godsend.
If you own a Switch or PC (which I'm sure you do) the HD remasters of that and the first Grandia are definitely worth picking up! I very highly recommend them to any JRPG fan 💎

Evans Carlson, who, after his time in China studying the Reds, brought the phrase “gung ho” to the Marine Corps.  “Gung ho” means “work together.”  Carlson was very impressed with the nascent Red Army.  In November, 1943, Carlson took part in the landing on Tarawa, as an observer.  He said he realized, in the middle of the horror and death and carnage, that the only way he was going to get off the island alive was to continually leave safety and help others, which he did.  Col. David Shoup, Marine commander on the ground (and later Commandant of the Marine Corps) said of Col. Carlson - “He may’ve been Red, but he wasn’t yellow.”

Careful there, buddy. I wouldn’t point a gun at Gung Ho if I were you!

Gung Ho (1986)
Time for a Michael Keaton comedy and a lesser known one at that. Gung Ho (1986) was a little Ron Howard effort that, sadly, has a few issues.
