'''Mauricio Berger''' is a Brazilian voice actor.

Berger is one of the most recognized voice actors in Brazil, that's because of his extremely masculine voice. Because of that, he usually plays the "though guy" character.

Among his most notable roles, are John Stewart on both Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, Goliath on Gargoyles, Batman/Bruce Wayne on The New Adventures of Batman and Robin, Sabertooth on X-Men Evolution, Mr. Freeze on The Batman, Father on Kids Next Door and Harold on The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy.

He was also the voice of the titular character on the tv series Angel, and he made David Boreanaz sound a lot tougher than he really is.

Seriously, he sounds like he is 11 feet tall!<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

'''Tankor''' SMAAAAAASHHH! Tankor PULLLVERIZZZZEEE! Tankor SLAG BEAST BOTS! Tankor is the brute force part of [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s first trio of Vehicon generals, and commander of the powerful [[Tank Drone (BM)|Tank Drones]]. he is told apart from theses drones by his slightly bigger size and yellow stripes on his shoulders. He's slow, simple-minded and immensely powerful. Lovably dim, his limited intelligence can sometimes be a drawback; he can easily be confused, misled, or even turned against Megatron, though temporarily. However, this is balanced out by his natural state of blind frustration and destuctive rage, which makes getting him to listen to any cajoling a less than simple task.

Tankor is in actuality a programmed shell personality given life by the spark of the [[Maximal]] [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]].

Outside of normal space and time, an [[Tankor (Universe Decepticon)|alternate-universe incarnation of Tankor]] serves the will of [[Unicron]].

====Beast Machines====
'''Voice actor:''' [[Paul Dobson]], [[Richard Newman]] (as [[Rhinox]], later himself) (US), [[Daiki Nakamura]] (Japan), [[Maurício Berger]] (Brazil)

Unfortunately for the Maximals, as they attempted to return home to Cybertron, Megatron broke free from his restraints and fell out of transwarp space, thus they arrived home to hostile fire from an already conquered planet. Upon landing, Rhinox and the others fled an army of tank drones, but Megatron's transformation virus and canisters of "devolution gas" whipped them good. (Were they not men?). Those Maximals that had [[Transmetal]] or [[Transmetal 2]] forms were reverted to the first beast mode in their datatrax, but managed to escape. Rhinox and [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|Silverbolt]], who had no other forms to revert to, entered stasis lock and captured. Rhinox's spark was forcibly removed and stored in a canister in Megatron's citadel.

When Megatron found that he needed underlings to properly control his Vehicon armies in battle, he used Rhinox's spark to power his tank general [[Tankor (BM)|Tankor]]. Figuring that if the Maximals discovered their new enemy had once been their close friend it would make them less willing to fight him. Unfortunately for Megatron, Tankor was only marginally more intelligent than the mindless drones he was created to lead and Rhinox's spark/consciousness remained intact inside Tankor, albeit unable to act.

True to Megatron's expectations, the Maximals did attempt to reach Tankor's spark and discovering Rhinox there, they endeavored to wake his spark. They succeeded, but the Rhinox they got was not the Rhinox they expected. Tainted and embittered by his time inside Tankor, Rhinox rejected the Maximals and embraced Megatron's plan for a peaceful (because everyone else was dead) technologically pure Cybertron, only with ''himself'' at its head instead of Megatron.

''(This new Tankor-Rhinox acts much like the temporary Predacon-ized version of Rhinox seen in Beast Wars. It has thus been speculated that it may be similarly the result of awakening Rhinox's spark without shutting down the Tankor shell program. This is supported "in-show" by the imagery of Rhinox and Tankor fused at the waist into one spark, apparently struggling and in pain. The BM story editors however opined that they believed Rhinox was totally free when he chose this path, though that seems less in character.)''

Tankor-Rhinox immediately began plotting against both Megatron and the Maximals. He caught and reprogrammed one of Megatron's [[Diagnostic Drone|Diagnostic Drones]], forcing it to work for him. He found the [[Oracle]] and, using the Diagnostic Drone, retrieved the [[Key to Vector Sigma]] from within. He then faked his own death and attempted to manipulate Megatron into firing the key on a planetary scale which would have killed all the organics, the Maximals and Megatron, leaving Rhinox to rule a pure mechanical world. Tankor's manipulations failed when he tried to attack Megatron, and a provision against doing so, hard-wired into his programming, shut him down. Due to Tankor's manipulations however, Primal opened the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]] and Megatron fired the Key and in the ensuing clash of energies Tankor-Rhinox's body was destroyed and his spark joined the Matrix.

Primal meets Rhinox's spark one last time within the Matrix, where Rhinox seems to express regret over his recent actions.

===Beast Machines===
*'''Tankor''' (Mega, 1999)
: Part of the first wave of ''Beast Machines'' product, Tankor transforms into a large Cybertronic tank. Aside from a spring-loaded missile launcher, he also features a light-piped "scanner eye" on his turret, and twin sawblades that spin via gear-wheel system when his tank mode is pushed along. In robot mode, all of these gimmicks are retained, though the "scanner eye" is this time in his robot head.

: Despite all of these features, the toy and its transformation scheme bear very little resemblance to the show's CG model.

: This toy was [[redeco]]ed into ''[[Universe]]'' [[Tankor (Universe Decepticon)|Tankor]]. The toy's likeness was also used for the non-toy [[Beast Era]] incarnation of [[Quake (G1)|Quake]] and his drones.

[[Image:Rr-tankor.jpg|thumb|right|These are awesome. There should be Tank Drone redecos in these colors.]]

*'''Tankor''' (Happy Meal Toy, 2000)
: One of nine ''Beast Mahcines'' Happy Meal toys from McDonald's resturants, Tankor transforms into a small Cybertronic tank based a bit more on the show's CGI model.

: This mold was later used as a kids' meal prize for the Australian Red Rooster resturant chain. Aside from the original coloration, this mold was also cast in the colors of the other three molds used by Red Rooster: [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]], [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] and [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]].

*'''Tankor''' (Basic, 2005)
: ''Japanese ID number:'' '''BR-06'''

: Released in the second wave of the Japanese Toys "R" Us [[exclusive]] ''Beast Wars Returns'' line (the Japanese name for ''Beast Machines''), Tankor is a [[redeco]] of the Basic [[Tank Drone (BM)|Tank Drone]], transforming into a Cybertronic four-tracked tank. Pressing the [[spark crystal]] on his cannon fires a spring-loaded "energy blast" missile. A gear-wheel system on the underside of his tank mode also activates this attack, while spinning his tank barrel in the process.

: It is highly (in fact, almost perfectly) [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]], although [[scale|woefully out of scale]] with the other BM toys. Like the rest of the line, actually...

: This mold was also used to make [[Stockade]].
