	'''Tackle''' (タックル ''Takkuru''), [[Multiforce]]'s "Warrior of the Earth", lives up to his title. A rugged outdoorsbot, Tackle is the team's survivalist, taking on the elements with a smile. He loves the wilds of [[Earth]] and takes every opportunity to explore them, climbing the mountains and traveling the deserts. He's even taken up fishing as a hobby. He can also turn the environment against his foes, channeling energy into earthquake-like attacks.		'''Tackle''' (タックル ''Takkuru''), [[Multiforce]]'s "Warrior of the Earth", lives up to his title.

	Though he's often alone in the wild, he shares a very close bond with his teammate [[Mach (G1)\|Mach]], who often finds himself alone in orbit above the planet. Despite the vast distances, the two still coordinate to bring down their foes, and spend most of their time together combined into [[Machtackle]].

			: In 1995, the three Multiforce two-packs were released in mainland China as part of the severely-delayed ''Hasbro''-distributed [[The Transformers (Chinese toyline)\|Chinese ''Transformers'' toyline]]. They came in slightly-modified versions of their original packaging, with the characters' names now written in Chinese, and the Japanese Transformers logo replaced with a similarly styled Chinese language logo saying "Battles of Victory" (胜利之斗争). They toys themselves are also slightly modified, with their molded-on legal/manufacturing information blotted out and modified to remove Takara's name.

	: Tackle has undergone the most significant color changes of the team: aside from the black joints changing to dark gunmetal (a change made to the entire team), his orange plastic is now significantly lighter and paler. His robot mode faces have changed to silver with red optics. The yellow "vent" stickers on his chest also have much thinner black borders, meaning a lot more yellow inside. In truck mode, he has lost the window deco on his camper cover, and Autobot symbol has been added to the passenger-side hood.		: Tackle has undergone the most significant color changes of the team: aside from the black joints changing to dark gunmetal (a change made to the entire team), his orange plastic is now significantly lighter and paler.
