The Yukikaze(ユキカゼ) Crew

  • C-16 Lio Convoy(ライオコンボイ): Lio Convoy, also known as Leo Prime, is a Maximal commander who leads The Pack. His alternate modes are a White Lion, Mechanical White Lion, and Mechanical Lion. Originally a brave and noble Maximal commander, after his ship was attacked by a group of Predacons led by Galvatron, Convoy was dispatched to pursue the Predacons and bring them to justice. Chasing them to the planet Gaia (in reality a future Earth), Convoy was injured by the fields of Angolmois energy (similar to the energon fields in Beast Wars). He was then rescued by a white lion whose form he scanned to give him a beast mode for protection, and adopted the name of Lio Convoy. However, believing him to be dying the Matrix had copied itself into another Maximal: Lio Junior, who came to think of himself as Lio Convoy's son.
Leo Prime has appeared in several other Transformers media, including: Beast Wars: The Gathering and Beast Wars: The Ascending, leading the Pack as a black ops unit; Transformers: Generations as a heroic Autobot recolored and remolded from Cybertron Leobreaker; and as a character in the Transformers: Prime and Transformers: Go! toylines, recolored from Prime Thundertron.

On the other hand, moved by friendship, he has often met danger side on. In frog mode, Diver appears unarmed, but can catch enemies by surprise with a tongue-punch. His specialty is singing, and he sings rap songs to himself. When he's surprised in robot mode, Diver's neck pops out to its full length. Speaks in Kansai dialect.[1]
