According to [[CWCipedia]], the '''Samurai Pizza Bots''' are a cadre of [[Transformers]] who protect the city of [[CWCville]] from enemy attack. Since they didn't appear until [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]], one wonders where the hell they've been up until that point, and since [[Son-Chu]] at least has been around in the comic for a long time, why they haven't been helping [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Christian]] and [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] not get their heads kicked in by a variety of [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens|implausible super-villains]] in the comic before that.

If you're wondering about the name, there is actually a plausible reason for it (as opposed to the other strangeness in the comic like [[Jerkhief|wooden badges being delicious]]). The name is actually [[Things Chris has ripped off|stolen]] from an [[anime]] called ''[[Wikipedia:Samurai Pizza Cats|Samurai Pizza Cats]]'', about a gang of anthropomorphic cats who protect their city while running a pizzeria. Chris liked this concept so much, that he felt the need to steal it and incorporate it into his comics, by making the CWCville Autobots maintain disguises as pizza delivery vehicles, complete with the ability to holographically project drivers who would deliver the pizza personally to customers.

===Son-Chu===
[[Image:ModNation AutobotSonChu.jpg|thumb|Son-Chu's transformed mode in [[ModNation Racers]].]]

{{main|Son-Chu}}

Son-Chu is Chris's own personal transformer. In [[Chris and his Ego|typical Chris fashion]], since the car is his, that means it is naturally the leader of the CWCville Autobots and has the most prominence in the comics, as well as being the only transformer to be spared the indignity of being referred to as a Samurai Pizza Bot. No, instead, Chris refers to his transformer as the leader of the "[[Virginia]] Autobot Squad".<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Son-Chu</ref>

Also notable is that while Son-Chu still has the same stupid logo as the other Autobots, he doesn't actually have a day job delivering pizzas. Son-Chu is instead Chris's own personal transportation. In vehicle mode, he takes the form of the blue '94 Ford Escort that Chris drove in real life at the time. Like the other Autobots, he has the ability to project a hologram of a driver into his seat in vehicle mode to maintain disguise, and being that he is Chris's car rather than a pizza delivery vehicle, he creates a hologram of Chris instead of a hologram of a delivery boy.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_9/Page_67</ref>

In fighting mode, he completely changes most of his entire design. While normally a Ford Escort, his body still changes into the front of a Dodge Viper in robot form anyway, and while dark blue before, while transformed he becomes yellow and battery blue. Notably, this is the same color scheme often associated with [[Sonichu]] himself, who is mostly yellow and has blue shoes. This ''could'' be the reason why the Autobot is named Son-Chu in the first place, but either way, it's probably not a coincidence that the two similarly named characters also have similar color schemes. As far as weapons go, Chris's description of him on [[CWCipedia]] says that his roof can become a shield, while his hood can become either a "Plasma Pistol" or an "Energon Sword". He is described as being "Quick footed, well armored" and with a "Strong personality under his hood".<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Son-Chu</ref> Note that no such personality is shown in the comic.

For some reason, he can also transform into a concert stage, which he does in [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu #10'']] to help [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys]] play a live performance of [[Revive Zordon]],<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_10/Page_28</ref> with their music being so terrible that it actually [[4-cent_garbage.com|causes 9/11]]. At this point, it is debatable whether or not Son-Chu is really a Decepticon agent in disguise, a theory leant credence by the fact that [[Megatron pistol|Megatron]] is clearly also in Chris's servitude.

Notably, Son-Chu appeared before any of the other robots in the comic, though not as a transformer. He made several cameos throughout the series in vehicle mode before he and the Samurai Pizza Bots' first proper appearance, being first seen at the end of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu #0'']].

===Prower===
[[Image:ProwerVehicle2.jpg|left|thumb|Punchy and [[Layla]] out on a drive. Also note the way Punchy rides the motorcycle like a man-pony at an S'n'M club.]]

'''Prower''' (sometimes spelled '''Prowler''') is another of the Samurai Pizza Bots, holding the distinctions of being one of the only two transformers to have an "owner" and the only one to be owned by a [[Sonichu (species)|Sonichu]]. He is also the sole justification for the "Samurai" part of the Samurai Pizza Bots' name.

For some reason, Chris decided to elaborate more on Prower than any of the other Autobots, giving him an established backstory on the [[CWCipedia]] article for [[Punchy Sonichu]], his owner, in a short backstory subsection called [[Homos|''Friends of the Fist'']]. The story explains how Punchy and Prower first met, which basically boils down to Punchy noticing a motorcycle in a cave, talking to it, and it talking back. They then decide to be partners for some reason, and that's why Punchy suddenly has a samurai robot motorcycle working for him in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']].<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20161007181529/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Punchy_Sonichu</ref>

Being the most fleshed out character of Chris's shitty transformers lineup however is countered by Prower also being the most obvious ripoff of the bunch. He is a blatant copy of the Autobot cyber-ninja [[Wikipedia:Prowl (Transformers)|Prowl]] from ''Transformers Animated'', sharing such qualities as their samurai armor which becomes a sidecar, their similar names, their vehicle modes, and the fact that both are ninjas, both supposedly rely on stealth, both use holographic images and both use [[Wikipedia:shuriken|shurikens]] to fight.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Prower</ref>

The source of Prower's name is a [[Autism|complete mystery]]. While it has an obvious basis in the name Prowl, his [[Chris and copyright|inspiration]], why Chris chose to drop the 'L' is never made clear. The name is confirmed not to be a typo like [[Chrs-Chan Pure Pulse-Jolt Lance]] was for instance, because it is used multiple times in the comic and that is the name his CWCipedia article went by, meaning the alternate spelling of "Prowler" sometimes used is more likely to be the typo that "Prower" is. The strange spelling has been claimed by [[trolls]] over time to being everything from a [[racist]] joke about how Asians would pronounce "Prowler" to the more likely option of being a reference to [[Wikipedia:Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]] from the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' series, whose real name is Miles Prower – a pun on ''miles per hour''. To this day, nothing has been confirmed.

===Bumble-Lumba===
The token [[Wikipedia:Bumblebee (Transformers)|Bumblebee]] ripoff. Other than the fact he fights [[Jerkops]] and [[Decepti-Clones]] like all the other Samurai Pizza Bots and that he transforms into a yellow and green hatchback, ("[[CWC-isms|Bug-Car]]" according to Chris), nobody knows anything about him. Not even Chris cares enough to elaborate on what kind of weapons he uses in Bumble-Lumba's own CWCipedia article. He just delivers pizzas, fights, and transforms.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Bumble-Lumba</ref>

===Excelina===
[[Image:Robovagina.jpg|thumb|Seriously, what the hell?]]

The only female transformer and obvious ripoff of the movie version of [[Wikipedia:Arcee|Arcee]]. The inspiration behind Excelina's name is unknown, but most [[trolls]] point to either the [[anime]] ''[[Wikipedia:Steel Angel Kurumi|Steel Angel Kurumi]]'', which has a character with the same name and which Chris has seen before and liked,<ref>[[Mumble 2#Rabbichoso And Animu]]</ref> or to Excel from ''[[Excel Saga]]'', which Chris has [[Parody|parodied]] before.

Her vehicle mode is that of a motorcycle, (of what make and model Chris never says), and comes with a blatantly obvious female hologram "rider". Men are courteously informed that she is just a hologram, just in case you thought Chris's [[art]] had gotten even worse. This particular hologram also somehow has the ability to actually pick up pizza and carry it to customers despite not having a physical presence. Chris claims on her CWCipedia article that she knows all the shortcuts across [[CWCville]], and that she can reach anywhere in the city in less than ten seconds,<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Excelina</ref> a speed that neither [[Sonic]] nor [[Sonichu]] have matched so far.

She is described in combat as being "Slick, cool and full of style in her attacks" and "[[Chris and sex|Strong-Fisted]] Up-Close". Her main weapon is said to be "[[Death threats|Sniper]]-Style", but she "[[Megan Schroeder|needs space]]" to use it.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Excelina</ref>

All this is irrelevant, however, as her lack of personality or any interesting design to distinguish her from the other Autobots means she will forever be remembered by [[trolls]] and [[True and Loyal Fanbase|''Sonichu'' fans]] as the one Chris decided to draw with a robot vagina.

===Armoraxe===
[[Image:ArmoraxeBot.jpg|left|thumb|You know that little kid you see at your cousin's birthday celebration running around with a [[Gitar of Fail|toy guitar]]? Imagine if he was a robot.]]

The apparent sub-leader of the group, acting in the same way to Son-Chu that [[Wild]] does to [[Magi-Chan]], the Armoraxe robot is supposedly named for his tough armor and sharp axe. Unfortunately, Armoraxe does not use an axe, but instead a giant guitar that transforms into a plasma rifle. This motif with the guitar makes him a rather obvious ripoff of [[Wikipedia:Soundwave (Transformers)|Soundwave]] from ''Transformers Animated''. Chris describes him as a "real [[Guitar Hero]]", and claims that "when he Plays that Beat, HE WAILS!!!", whatever that means.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Armoraxe</ref>

His vehicle form is that of a minivan, perhaps more specifically a [[Wikipedia:Scion xB|Scion xB]], (though Chris described it as a "[[CWC-isms|Heavy Beat Van]]"). In his robot form, he carries a boombox on his shoulders and wields a guitar. Due to Chris's lack of [[Chris and art|artistic talent]], it is difficult to discern if his face is on the boombox itself or if he has a separate head that is in front of it.

In yet another example out of thousands that show how shitty Chris's comic is, is when Chris took down the [[4-cent_garbage.com]] building in ''Sonichu #10'' through the power of rock, Chris showed up in [[Son-Chu]] instead of Armoraxe, and Son-Chu turned into a mobile rock stage. He didn't bring along Armoraxe at all. Armoraxe's entire ''raison d'être'' is that he's a walking talking robotic sound system with a guitar, and the one fucking time he could have been at all useful, Chris chose to use his shitwagon instead.

Also note that Soundwave is actually a Decepticon, and yet his ripoff is an Autobot. If Soundwave were real, he'd feel insulted by this.

{{-}}

==Origins==
At this point, you're probably wondering where the hell these guys have been since the beginning of the comic, and that's a good question. At first, one would assume that the Autobots first showed up around about the time Chris got lost in the [[Time Void]]. They could have been called in as extra support after Chris got lost, or perhaps they coincidentally ended up there while pursuing Decepticons and decided to stay and help the city. Then, however, you realize that the leader of this particular group of Autobots is [[Son-Chu]], who transforms into Chris's car, and Chris had that same crappy Ford Escort all the way back in [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu #0'']], which through [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retcons]] Chris has established took place ''years'' before [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']], and Son-Chu was never seen transforming in between those stories, even in situations where his assistance would have helped out immensely.

This then leads to the second theory. Maybe these aren't exactly the same kind of Autobots that appear in the regular ''[[Transformers]]'' universe. After all, the [[Decepti-Clones]] of [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens|PVCC]] were all actually built by [[Mary Lee Walsh]] and her minions, so maybe the [[Bill the Scientist|top minds]] of [[CWCville]] got together and decided to just build some transforming robots of their own at about the same time, and perhaps Chris's car was stripped down and used for parts during the creation of Son-Chu, and that's why he was a robot in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']] but not before that.

However, then there's the issue of Prower. He wasn't made in a lab or workshop to defend CWCville. He definitely came from out of town. Punchy found him alone in a cave behind a waterfall, and he claimed to have ended up there by coincidence coming back from a battle with Decepticons outside the city. So he must be the alien kind of transformer. This in turn though raises the question of why he was taking orders from a derivative robot like Son-Chu who was built by humans.

In conclusion, Chris introduced a new group of characters with conflicting origin stories and stupid retcons, and the end result was a mess so devoid of any coherence that no-one can even say for sure where the characters actually ''came from''. In other words, typical [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']].

Decepti-Clones

2021-10-09T16:09:57Z

Knoxklay11: Removed the word "else". Redundant/extra word.

The '''Decepti-Clones''' are a line of evil robots in the [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comic series]] which work for the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]]. Created by [[Mary Lee Walsh]] and her minions for use in battle, the Decepti-Clones come in three variants with different purposes, all based on actual Decepticons from the various ''[[Transformers]]'' animated series, movies and comics. The very first of these was the Crackder, which appeared all the way back in [[Sonichu 4|''Sonichu #4'']]. However, in this model's first appearance, there was only one Crackder, and he was described as a "[[Transformer|Change-Bot]]" rather than a transformer. Crackder would later reappear as a mass produced robot and backed up by two other Decepti-Clone models.

Conceptually, the Decepti-Clone army originated from the ''Transformers'' video game for PS2, which featured many weak, mass-produced enemies like the Decepti-Clones which could be killed in droves by the player character so as to reserve actual Decepticons for boss encounters. In essence, they were to the Decepticons what the [[Jerkops]] are to the [[Manajerks]]. Their spiritual successors in ''Sonichu'' serve much the same purpose.

== S.A.V.s (Scoundrals as Vessels) ==
[[Image:SAVBot.jpg|thumb|Not the [[Bionic the Hedgehog|gayest of Chris's creations]], but the colors don't help.]]

The S.A.V.s were the most prominently featured of Chris's Decepti-Clones, despite not being the first he created. Their purpose was simple: They were unmanned robots and came in large numbers, which meant that Chris's characters could destroy hundreds of them at a time and not have to worry about actually killing anyone. Unlike with a [[Jerkop]], a giant robot can be sliced in half or blown up, and no-one will think anything of it, even if the robot is sentient. Also, it goes without saying that fighting robots is infinitely cooler than fighting mall cops.

The S.A.V.s themselves transformed into armored S.U.V.s, hence the name, with large cannons mounted on top. They were said to act much like tanks in battle. They were slow and heavy, and Chris claimed among other things that an S.A.V. stomping could be heard and felt from ten miles away, and that a hit by a blast from their cannons was equivalent to an impact from "Class 5 Meteor".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150323064309/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Scoundrals_As_Vessels old CWCki S.A.V.]</ref>

Their design is based on that of [[Wikipedia:Swindle (Transformers)|Swindle]] from [[Wikipedia: Transformers Animated|''Transformers Animated'']]. The name is also most likely based on the Transformers Animated episode "SUV: Society of Ultimate Villainy", the episode in which Swindle was featured.

They appeared for the first and last time in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']], where they almost outnumbered the Jerkops in their sheer numbers. [[Sonichu]], [[Blake]], [[Bubbles]], [[Armoraxe]] and [[Reginald Sneasel]] are all seen killing S.A.V.s at various points in the comic, with Sonichu destroying an S.A.V. as part of the [[Sonichu Fan Promo]] adaptation and Blake also killing an S.A.V. with a crown who seemed to be a squad leader.

Towards the end of the comic, [[Magi-Chan]] sends a psychic message to Sonichu and [[Rosechu]] to tell them of the state of [[CWCville]] and the ongoing battle. In a long textwall, Magi-Chan mentions in passing that the entirety of Mary's Decepti-Clone army had been destroyed, and that [[Son-Chu]] and [[Samurai Pizza Bots|Excelina]] had already gathered up the parts and shipped them off to an army base to be [[Recycling|recycled]]. The S.A.V.s are never seen again.

== Crackders ==
[[Image:CrackderBot.jpg|thumb|left|Behold, [[Wes Iseli|one]] [[Bagget|of]] [[W-M Manajerk|many]] [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc|foes]] who has no problem beating Chris and yet does not kill him.]]

The Crackder was one of the first Decepti-Clones to appear in ''Sonichu'', having first been called upon in [[Sonichu 4|''Sonichu #4'']] by [[Bagget]] to defeat Chris at the [[Get-Tar Region]]. Though Chris tried to defeat the Crackder, it easily won by tripping him up and causing his [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]] form to deactivate. Jerkops were then able to handcuff him while Crackder picked him up and dropped him from a high height, just because he deserved that little extra bit of humiliation. Crackder then transformed into a fighter jet (based on the Soviet ''[[wikipedia: Sukhoi Su-35|Su-35]]'') to take Bagget, [[Jerkhief]] and Chris back to PVCC headquarters, and was then not seen again until much later in the series.

Crackder, while similar in nature to [[Wikipedia:Starscream|Starscream]], was actually a ripoff of a different Decepticon named [[Wikipedia:Thundercracker|Thundercracker]], specifically the [[Wikipedia:Transformers: Cybertron|''Transformers: Cybertron'']] version of him. This is even alluded to in the dialogue, as Bagget at one point claims that Crackder was made from parts imported from Cybertron, which in-universe is the home planet of the Transformers and the namesake of the series.

There were many differences between Crackder in his two appearances. As was mentioned above, in his original appearance Crackder was referred to as a "Change-Bot" rather than explicitly as a transformer, and there was originally only one of him. By the time of his next appearance in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']] however, his status was upgraded to an official Transformer, (or to a Decepti-Clone at least), he was mass produced, he was backed up by two other Decepti-Clone variants, and he seemed to have undergone a dramatic decrease in both power and ability, as in his original appearance, the lone Crackder was able to take down Chris in his superform single handedly, whilst by the time of ''Sonichu #9'' [[Angelica]] was able to destroy four of them by herself in less than two pages, meaning that either the mass produced Crackders were a lot weaker than the original, or Chris was just a useless pussy.

According to the [[CWCipedia]], Crackders are primarily armed with long-range Guided Missiles in their jet form, and a massive Arm Cannon in robot form. They are described as the quickest of the Decepti-Clone variants, as well as the "most deadly and cunning".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140829070102/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Crackder old CWCki Crackder]</ref>

When the Crackder reappeared in ''Sonichu #9'' as a mass produced model, it served as the Jerkop's aerial offensive on CWCville. While the S.A.V.s were unpiloted mechs which drove on the ground and the Punislavs were [[Jerkop]] driven cars in vehicle mode, Crackder still transforms into a jet fighter, and in fact, is only ever seen in this form in the issue. Whether or not they are still piloted is never made clear, but if they were, then [[Chaotic Combo|our heroes]] are most certainly guilty of murder now. Throughout the issue, a grand total of nine of them appear. Five of them attack [[Angelica Rosechu]]'s church early in the issue and are all destroyed, [[Excelina]] shoots down one, and another three are seen flying over the shielded [[CWCville Mall]], possibly trying to bomb it given the state of it later in the issue. [[Magi-Chan]] takes down at least one of them, and also has a psychic battle with [[Silvana Rosechu]] on top another. As stated above, by the end of the issue, Magi-Chan claims that all the Decepti-Clones were destroyed and the parts were sent off to army bases to be recycled, so it is assumed that he destroyed the other two as well.

== Punislavs ==
[[Image:PunislavBot.jpg|thumb|Punislavs would be a lot more menacing if they didn't look like big logs of shit on wheels when in vehicle mode.]]

The Jerkop Punislav (Джэркоп Пунислав) was the final model of the Decepti-Clones used by the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]]. Punislav is one of the most obvious ripoffs that Chris has created, with almost every feature an exact copy of [[Wikipedia:Barricade (Transformers)|Barricade]] as he appeared in the ''Transformers'' movie. Like Barricade, the Punislavs all transform into mock police cruisers with a parody of the police motto "To Protect and Serve". There are precisely two differences between Barricade and a Punislav, the first being that Barricade is black and white while the Punislavs are brown and gray, and second being that while Barricade has the far more menacing "To Punish and Enslave" description on the side, Chris's one track mind came up with "[[Love Quest|To Shatter and Torture All Hearts]]" instead.

While the S.A.V.s and possibly the Crackders too were both unmanned pilot free mechs, built to fight both on the ground and in the air, the Punislavs in the comic appeared to have the primary purpose of transporting [[Jerkops]] around [[CWCville]] in large numbers so that they could get to different parts of the battle quicker. While quite often seen in vehicle mode, some were seen in robot mode too, though whether they were still piloted in that form is never made clear. In their robot forms, they depend on their sharp claws, fast speed and quick reflexes to fight.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140829070110/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Punislav old CWCki Punislav]</ref>

The name "Punislav" is said to have come from Chris wanting to call the robot a Punislave, (from Barricade's inscription), but he decided to change it at the last minute to avoid accusations of [[racism]], given that it was a [[niggo|brown car]] being referred to as a slave. However, the "-slav" suffix implies that the character has [[Molvanîa|Slavic]] origins instead.

In the comics, Punislavs only ever appeared ''Sonichu #9''. Much like the S.A.V.s before them, they appeared in great numbers throughout the issue. A few were seen in the forest early on, with at least one destroyed by [[Simonla]] after causing it to crash into a tree in vehicle mode. [[Reginald Sneasel]] destroyed two more shortly afterwards at Angelica's church. Another two showed up in downtown CWCville destroying a building, both of which were destroyed by [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]], and a further two are killed by [[Prower]] and [[Bumble-Lumba]]. The biggest role they play however is in Chris's comic adaptation of [[Sonichu Fan Promo]], in which it is a Punislav who captured Rosechu and takes her away, transforming into vehicle mode and driving away with her in the backseat. This particular Punislav is followed by Sonichu to CWCville Park, where it turns out to be under the control of [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], [[Giovanni]] and [[Doctor Robotnik]], who use the captured Rosechu held unconscious in the Punislav's arms as a ransom, demanding Sonichu hand over control of the city to them. The Punislav is destroyed however, and Rosechu is saved. All the Punislavs are assumed to have been destroyed and recycled by the army following Magi-Chan's claim towards the end of the issue. After this, they are never seen again.

Samurai Pizza Bots

2021-10-09T16:06:30Z

Knoxklay11: Dated. Chris no longer drives a '94 Ford Escort.

[[File:SchuComic9P70.jpg|thumb|300px|Samurai Pizza Bots: Plagiarism in disguise.]]
[[File:TSSSFPack18.jpg|thumb|300px|Yep, alien robots do ship.]]

According to [[CWCipedia]], the '''Samurai Pizza Bots''' are a cadre of [[Transformers]] who protect the city of [[CWCville]] from enemy attack. Since they didn't appear until [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]], one wonders where the hell they've been up until that point, and since [[Son-Chu]] at least has been around in the comic for a long time, why they haven't been helping [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Christian]] and [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] not get their heads kicked in by a variety of [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens|implausible super-villains]] in the comic before that.

If you're wondering about the name, there is actually a plausible reason for it (as opposed to the other strangeness in the comic like [[Jerkhief|wooden badges being delicious]]). The name is actually [[Things Chris has ripped off|stolen]] from an [[anime]] called ''[[Wikipedia:Samurai Pizza Cats|Samurai Pizza Cats]]'', about a gang of anthropomorphic cats who protect their city while running a pizzeria. Chris liked this concept so much, that he felt the need to steal it and incorporate it into his comics, by making the CWCville Autobots maintain disguises as pizza delivery vehicles, complete with the ability to holographically project drivers who would deliver the pizza personally to customers.

==Members==
===Son-Chu===
[[Image:ModNation AutobotSonChu.jpg|thumb|Son-Chu's transformed mode in [[ModNation Racers]].]]

{{main|Son-Chu}}

Son-Chu is Chris's own personal transformer. In [[Chris and his Ego|typical Chris fashion]], since the car is his, that means it is naturally the leader of the CWCville Autobots and has the most prominence in the comics, as well as being the only transformer to be spared the indignity of being referred to as a Samurai Pizza Bot. No, instead, Chris refers to his transformer as the leader of the "[[Virginia]] Autobot Squad".<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Son-Chu</ref>

Also notable is that while Son-Chu still has the same stupid logo as the other Autobots, he doesn't actually have a day job delivering pizzas. Son-Chu is instead Chris's own personal transportation. In vehicle mode, he takes the form of the blue '94 Ford Escort car that Chris drove in real life at the time. Like the other Autobots, he has the ability to project a hologram of a driver into his seat in vehicle mode to maintain disguise, and being that he is Chris's car rather than a pizza delivery vehicle, he creates a hologram of Chris instead of a hologram of a delivery boy.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_9/Page_67</ref>

In fighting mode, he completely changes most of his entire design. While normally a Ford Escort, his body still changes into the front of a Dodge Viper in robot form anyway, and while dark blue before, while transformed he becomes yellow and battery blue. Notably, this is the same color scheme often associated with [[Sonichu]] himself, who is mostly yellow and has blue shoes. This ''could'' be the reason why the Autobot is named Son-Chu in the first place, but either way, it's probably not a coincidence that the two similarly named characters also have similar color schemes. As far as weapons go, Chris's description of him on [[CWCipedia]] says that his roof can become a shield, while his hood can become either a "Plasma Pistol" or an "Energon Sword". He is described as being "Quick footed, well armored" and with a "Strong personality under his hood".<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Son-Chu</ref> Note that no such personality is shown in the comic.

For some reason, he can also transform into a concert stage, which he does in [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu #10'']] to help [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys]] play a live performance of [[Revive Zordon]],<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_10/Page_28</ref> with their music being so terrible that it actually [[4-cent_garbage.com|causes 9/11]]. At this point, it is debatable whether or not Son-Chu is really a Decepticon agent in disguise, a theory leant credence by the fact that [[Megatron pistol|Megatron]] is clearly also in Chris's servitude.

Notably, Son-Chu appeared before any of the other robots in the comic, though not as a transformer. He made several cameos throughout the series in vehicle mode before he and the Samurai Pizza Bots' first proper appearance, being first seen at the end of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu #0'']].

[[Image:ProwerVehicle2.jpg|left|thumb|Punchy and [[Layla]] out on a drive. Also note the way Punchy rides the motorcycle like a man-pony at an S'n'M club.]]

'''Prower''' (sometimes spelled '''Prowler''') is another of the Samurai Pizza Bots, holding the distinctions of being one of the only two transformers to have an "owner" and the only one to be owned by a [[Sonichu (species)|Sonichu]]. He is also the sole justification for the "Samurai" part of the Samurai Pizza Bots' name.

For some reason, Chris decided to elaborate more on Prower than any of the other Autobots, giving him an established backstory on the [[CWCipedia]] article for [[Punchy Sonichu]], his owner, in a short backstory subsection called [[Homos|''Friends of the Fist'']]. The story explains how Punchy and Prower first met, which basically boils down to Punchy noticing a motorcycle in a cave, talking to it, and it talking back. They then decide to be partners for some reason, and that's why Punchy suddenly has a samurai robot motorcycle working for him in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']].<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20161007181529/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Punchy_Sonichu</ref>

Being the most fleshed out character of Chris's shitty transformers lineup however is countered by Prower also being the most obvious ripoff of the bunch. He is a blatant copy of the Autobot cyber-ninja [[Wikipedia:Prowl (Transformers)|Prowl]] from ''Transformers Animated'', sharing such qualities as their samurai armor which becomes a sidecar, their similar names, their vehicle modes, and the fact that both are ninjas, both supposedly rely on stealth, both use holographic images and both use [[Wikipedia:shuriken|shurikens]] to fight.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Prower</ref>

The source of Prower's name is a [[Autism|complete mystery]]. While it has an obvious basis in the name Prowl, his [[Chris and copyright|inspiration]], why Chris chose to drop the 'L' is never made clear. The name is confirmed not to be a typo like [[Chrs-Chan Pure Pulse-Jolt Lance]] was for instance, because it is used multiple times in the comic and that is the name his CWCipedia article went by, meaning the alternate spelling of "Prowler" sometimes used is more likely to be the typo that "Prower" is. The strange spelling has been claimed by [[trolls]] over time to being everything from a [[racist]] joke about how Asians would pronounce "Prowler" to the more likely option of being a reference to [[Wikipedia:Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]] from the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' series, whose real name is Miles Prower – a pun on ''miles per hour''. To this day, nothing has been confirmed.

===Bumble-Lumba===
The token [[Wikipedia:Bumblebee (Transformers)|Bumblebee]] ripoff. Other than the fact he fights [[Jerkops]] and [[Decepti-Clones]] like all the other Samurai Pizza Bots and that he transforms into a yellow and green hatchback, ("[[CWC-isms|Bug-Car]]" according to Chris), nobody knows anything about him. Not even Chris cares enough to elaborate on what kind of weapons he uses in Bumble-Lumba's own CWCipedia article. He just delivers pizzas, fights, and transforms.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Bumble-Lumba</ref>

===Excelina===
[[Image:Robovagina.jpg|thumb|Seriously, what the hell?]]

The only female transformer and obvious ripoff of the movie version of [[Wikipedia:Arcee|Arcee]]. The inspiration behind Excelina's name is unknown, but most [[trolls]] point to either the [[anime]] ''[[Wikipedia:Steel Angel Kurumi|Steel Angel Kurumi]]'', which has a character with the same name and which Chris has seen before and liked,<ref>[[Mumble 2#Rabbichoso And Animu]]</ref> or to Excel from ''[[Excel Saga]]'', which Chris has [[Parody|parodied]] before.

Her vehicle mode is that of a motorcycle, (of what make and model Chris never says), and comes with a blatantly obvious female hologram "rider". Men are courteously informed that she is just a hologram, just in case you thought Chris's [[art]] had gotten even worse. This particular hologram also somehow has the ability to actually pick up pizza and carry it to customers despite not having a physical presence. Chris claims on her CWCipedia article that she knows all the shortcuts across [[CWCville]], and that she can reach anywhere in the city in less than ten seconds,<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Excelina</ref> a speed that neither [[Sonic]] nor [[Sonichu]] have matched so far.

She is described in combat as being "Slick, cool and full of style in her attacks" and "[[Chris and sex|Strong-Fisted]] Up-Close". Her main weapon is said to be "[[Death threats|Sniper]]-Style", but she "[[Megan Schroeder|needs space]]" to use it.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Excelina</ref>

All this is irrelevant, however, as her lack of personality or any interesting design to distinguish her from the other Autobots means she will forever be remembered by [[trolls]] and [[True and Loyal Fanbase|''Sonichu'' fans]] as the one Chris decided to draw with a robot vagina.

===Armoraxe===
[[Image:ArmoraxeBot.jpg|left|thumb|You know that little kid you see at your cousin's birthday celebration running around with a [[Gitar of Fail|toy guitar]]? Imagine if he was a robot.]]

The apparent sub-leader of the group, acting in the same way to Son-Chu that [[Wild]] does to [[Magi-Chan]], the Armoraxe robot is supposedly named for his tough armor and sharp axe. Unfortunately, Armoraxe does not use an axe, but instead a giant guitar that transforms into a plasma rifle. This motif with the guitar makes him a rather obvious ripoff of [[Wikipedia:Soundwave (Transformers)|Soundwave]] from ''Transformers Animated''. Chris describes him as a "real [[Guitar Hero]]", and claims that "when he Plays that Beat, HE WAILS!!!", whatever that means.<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Armoraxe</ref>

His vehicle form is that of a minivan, perhaps more specifically a [[Wikipedia:Scion xB|Scion xB]], (though Chris described it as a "[[CWC-isms|Heavy Beat Van]]"). In his robot form, he carries a boombox on his shoulders and wields a guitar. Due to Chris's lack of [[Chris and art|artistic talent]], it is difficult to discern if his face is on the boombox itself or if he has a separate head that is in front of it.

In yet another example out of thousands that show how shitty Chris's comic is, is when Chris took down the [[4-cent_garbage.com]] building in ''Sonichu #10'' through the power of rock, Chris showed up in [[Son-Chu]] instead of Armoraxe, and Son-Chu turned into a mobile rock stage. He didn't bring along Armoraxe at all. Armoraxe's entire ''raison d'être'' is that he's a walking talking robotic sound system with a guitar, and the one fucking time he could have been at all useful, Chris chose to use his shitwagon instead.

Also note that Soundwave is actually a Decepticon, and yet his ripoff is an Autobot. If Soundwave were real, he'd feel insulted by this.

==Origins==
At this point, you're probably wondering where the hell these guys have been since the beginning of the comic, and that's a good question. At first, one would assume that the Autobots first showed up around about the time Chris got lost in the [[Time Void]]. They could have been called in as extra support after Chris got lost, or perhaps they coincidentally ended up there while pursuing Decepticons and decided to stay and help the city. Then, however, you realize that the leader of this particular group of Autobots is [[Son-Chu]], who transforms into Chris's car, and Chris had that same crappy Ford Escort all the way back in [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu #0'']], which through [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retcons]] Chris has established took place ''years'' before [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']], and Son-Chu was never seen transforming in between those stories, even in situations where his assistance would have helped out immensely.

This then leads to the second theory. Maybe these aren't exactly the same kind of Autobots that appear in the regular ''[[Transformers]]'' universe. After all, the [[Decepti-Clones]] of [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens|PVCC]] were all actually built by [[Mary Lee Walsh]] and her minions, so maybe the [[Bill the Scientist|top minds]] of [[CWCville]] got together and decided to just build some transforming robots of their own at about the same time, and perhaps Chris's car was stripped down and used for parts during the creation of Son-Chu, and that's why he was a robot in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']] but not before that.

However, then there's the issue of Prower. He wasn't made in a lab or workshop to defend CWCville. He definitely came from out of town. Punchy found him alone in a cave behind a waterfall, and he claimed to have ended up there by coincidence coming back from a battle with Decepticons outside the city. So he must be the alien kind of transformer. This in turn though raises the question of why he was taking orders from a derivative robot like Son-Chu who was built by humans.

In conclusion, Chris introduced a new group of characters with conflicting origin stories and stupid retcons, and the end result was a mess so devoid of any coherence that no-one can even say for sure where the characters actually ''came from''. In other words, typical [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']].
