	: Released in the seventh and final year of ''[[The Transformers (toyline)\|The Transformers]]'' in the US, Over-Run is a non-transforming 3¾-inch action figure of a robot with hints of a helicopter [[alternate mode]], notably the canopy and rotor shaft details on his torso. His construction is broadly similar to that used by the ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)\|G.I. Joe]]'' figures of the time, having a swivel neck, shoulders and knees, plus ball-jointed hips attached via a steel rod internally secured by a rubber "o-ring". His hands have standard 3 mm holes which allow him to hold any other accessory in the Action Master line, plus his feet have holes in the bottom to secure him to larger vehicles. On top of that, the hole in his back is compatible with [[5 mm post]]s.		: Released in the seventh and final year of ''[[The Transformers (toyline)\|The Transformers]]'' in the US, Over-Run is a non-transforming 3¾-inch action figure of a robot with hints of a helicopter [[alternate mode]], notably the canopy and rotor shaft details on his torso.
