Prowl is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy.
Prowl #347

Prowl loves his job. With his incredibly acute senses and built-in radar system, Prowl scours the battlefields for those in need of aid, Autobot, Mini-Con, or human. Decepticons... well, he has a weapon mode ready to "save" them.

He has an uncanny gift for his work, and his skill at observation has saved many a life. And he makes sure others know that, too. He likes to work in examples of his skills and exploits into casual conversation, and wants recognition for them. No physical rewards, just people lauding him a bit. He's very confident, so confident that occasionally he seems unable to recognize mistakes he might have made. Nobody questions his dedication to saving lives, and his deeds do largely match his words. They just wish he'd be a little less proud of himself over it.

Sometimes Prowl is in the Accident Recovery Mini-Con Team.

Toys

[edit]

Armada

[edit]
  • Emergency Mini-Con Team (Basic, 2003)
  • Takara ID number: MM-20
  • Takara release date: September 11, 2003
  • Known designers: Shogo Hasui (Takara){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}
Armada Prowl transforms into a Cybertronic police car. He also has a third "weapon mode" transformation, becoming a pistol that can be held by any toy that uses 5mm accessory-pegs.
As a Mini-Con, he has a "Powerlinx" socket on the roof of his vehicle mode that allows him to attach to larger toys with compatible Powerlinx plugs, activating special gimmicks on the larger toys when attached to a "live" plug.
He was normally only available in a three-pack with his teammates Firebot and Makeshift. In the Hasbro line, the Emergency Team were released in the fifth assortment of Mini-Con teams. In Japan, it was part of the eighth wave of Legend of the Microns product, released in September 2003. Aside from packaging, there are no noteworthy differences between the two releases.
This mold was also used to make Kingbolt, Energon Groove, Cybertron Quasar, and Checkpoint.

  • Emergency Micron Exdimensions (Basic, 2003)
A limited-edition (yet still standard retail) "Exdimensions" redeco of the Emergency Team was released in Japan, the sole item in the eleventh and final regular-retail release in the line. This version of the Team features a clear-black and orange Prowl.
This toy was later repurposed as Shattered Glass Nightstick.

  • Emergency Mini-Con Team (Basic, 2003)
As part of the seventh and final wave of Armada Mini-Cons, the Emergency Team was given a redeco (without a new team name as previous redecoed teams had) under the "Unicron Battles" subline imprint. Prowl was decoed as an homage to Generation 1 Smokescreen, in a mainly blue and red scheme with "38" tampographed on his car-mode hood... marking the beginning of the eleventy-million Generation 1 Smokescreen homages to come in the following decade.

Universe (2003)

[edit]
  • Stockade & Magna Stampede with Prowl & Terradive (Ultra, 2004)
Prowl was redecoed for the 2003 Universe toyline, in a scheme very similar to Kingbolt, but darker and less saturated.
He was only available as part of an Ultra-sized multi-pack along with Magna Stampede, Stockade, and Terradive, released in the third "official" wave of the line (Universe has a few ".5" half-waves, which ultimately put this pack in the fifth set of Ultra releases, yes it's confusing).

Notes

[edit]
  • In the Armada episode "Tactician", Prowl was erroneously colored green, leading some to believe it was Dune Runner that appeared.
