Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program


 * The Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program is an Autobot/human endeavour.

The Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program (惑星間人材交換プログラム Wakusei Kan Jinzai Kōkan Program) is a joint effort between the Autobots and humanity to promote cooperation between the two races on Earth. Initiated in 2003, the Exchange Program sees humans from all walks of life, be they police officers, news reporters or super models, paired with like-minded Autobots, displaying unity and friendship between the races to a cynical humanity. Incidentally, their purpose is not to join forces and battle Decepticons, but to solve various daily human dilemmas, no matter how mundane they might be.

Known members include:


 * Clamp Down
 * Deep Cover
 * Blaster
 * Red Alert
 * Sunstreaker

Background
Autobot police officer Clamp Down came to Earth as part of the Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program, and worked with local law enforcement representatives to fight human crime on the planet. Clamp Down's excellent performance generated a lot of positive response to the program, and so in 2005, it was expanded to incorporate several Transformers who had been outfitted with Earth-mode bodies.
