 * When the Janus Transformation System is ready, the crosshair will turn purple.
 * If you do not activate the Janus form when it is ready, it will return to original state.
 * When the Janus form is activated, the crosshair will disappear.
 * Oddly, the player model shows the user does not hold the handle but holds JANUS-7 like a normal MG3.
