Created to assist humans caught in the crossfire of the Transformers' war, the Rescue Patrol Team (レスキューパトロールチーム Resukyū Patorōru Chīmu) may be young and inexperienced, but their bravery and eagerness are the equal to Autobots many times their size. They are deployed to help pull people from the Transformers' battle zones and keep them safe from the destruction caused by the Decepticons' energy raids.

The Team consists of:

Sometimes they are called the American Rescue Team (アメリカンレスキュー隊 Amerikan Resukyū Tai).

Fiction

[edit]

Victory cartoon

[edit]

Holi was stationed at the Universal Defense Force headquarters on planet V, where he was a close friend of Jan Minakaze The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber. He travelled with Star Saber to Earth; later, in response to increasing Decepticon activity, Star Saber called in the rest of the team to help with rescue operations. Minutes after arrival, they were sent on their first mission, to rescue humans under threat from Leozack and the Dinoforce. Move Out! Rescue Team

Zone cartoon, manga, and story pages

[edit]

When Victory Saber initiated the "Zone Project", the Rescue Patrol helped rebuild planet Micro into planet Zone. To counter this threat, Violengiguar began conquering planets in order to create his own Decepticon Zone. The Race Car Patrol and all other Micromaster teams were then sent on patrol across the cosmos, specifically to planets where their unique skills could do the most good. Zone Part 1

When Bruticus attacked the planet Feminia, the Rescue Patrol were among several units of Micromasters deployed to stop him. Through teamwork, they proved triumphant. Zone Part 2

When the Nine Great Demon Generals attacked planet Feminia en masse, the Rescue Patrol Team helped evacuate the planet of as many lifeforms as possible. However, they were unable to save Victory Saber, who sacrificed himself to rescue the last of the humans. The Rescue Patrol were later seen cleaning up the Zone Base on planet Zone after another attack by the Demon Generals. Still later, they could be seen celebrating when Victory Saber (who was rescued by the Powered Masters) inaugurated Dai Atlas as new Supreme Commander. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas! Zone

When the Powered Masters flew off to the Tenth Planet for their showdown with Violengiguar, all the Micromaster teams took command of Zone and vowed to keep it safe in their Commander's absence. Zone Part 10

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers

[edit]

  • Rocket Base (Micro Transformer base, 1990)
  • ID number: C-330
Released in the Zone portion of Takara's Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers toyline (despite the Team's prominent role in the Victory anime the prior year), the Rescue Patrol Team is a set of four emergency rescue Micromasters: Holi the police car, Boater the speedboat, Fire the firetruck, and Pīpō the ambulance. Physically, they are identical to the Hasbro-release Rescue Patrol (again, despite their portrayal in the anime).
The Rescue Patrol Team was first made available packed in with Moonradar and the Shuttle Base.
The team was later re-released in 1996 as the individually packed American Rescue Team members.


  • Rescue Patrol Team (Micromaster team, 1990)
  • ID number: C-331
The Rescue Patrol Team were also released in their own four-pack alongside numerous other Patrol Teams in Zone. These toys are identical to their Shuttle Base releases.


  • Rescue Patrol Team (Micro Trailer team, 1991)
  • ID number: C-373
The Rescue Patrol Team was again released a year later, without alteration as part of the Return of Convoy line. The only difference is with the inclusion of Micro Trailer # 10, an accessory that uses a spring-loaded mechanism to launch Micromasters, and can also be carried by Sky Garry or stored within Grandus.


Legacy

[edit]
  • Victory Saber (2022)
HasLab Legacy Holi and Fire are redecos of Siege Stakeout and Red Heat, with their colorations based on their appearances in the Victory anime (generally brighter and more pastel than the originals). As redecoes of Siege Micromasters, each one also has a third "gun" mode supported by a 5 mm post, plus the two can combine into a larger super-weapon.
They were only available as the third-tier bonus included with the crowdfunded Victory Saber, unlocked once the project reached 20,000 backers.


There's more copies of us than Holi and Fire!
Legacy Boater and Pīpō are a pair of entirely-new-mold Micromasters, with their colorations based on their anime appearances like Holi and Fire above. However, unlike the other two, these two Micromasters lack third "gun" modes (and, obviously, lack a combo-gun mode).
Boater and Pīpō were created as a reward to the fans for making Deathsaurus the most successful Transformers HasLab project to date: Hasbro revealed a surprise tier with the pairing on December 13, 2022, one day after funding was closed for Deathsaurus.

Notes

[edit]
  • The Rescue Patrol Team is referred to as the "Rescue Butai" (レスキュー部隊, "Rescue Force") in the Victory cartoon.
