Fiction
[edit]Beast Wars: Uprising
[edit]Caliburn was a Cyberdroid from Master who joined the Decepticon cause once Galvatron came to their world. He underwent the Powermaster process, binary-bonding with the infamous Zarak and his Headmaster partner Dante. In their Double-Headmaster form as MegaZarak, the trio avenged Zarak's previous defeat on Nebulos by Fortress Maximus. They defeated the Autobot Double-Headmaster in space battle and secured Master as a Decepticon colony. Unfortunately, Galvatron eventually pushed too far, and Master was lost in the Armistice handed down by the Terrans. A Brush With Infamy–Prologue

[edit]
- Megazarak w/ Caliburn (Ultra, 2004)
- Universe Caliburn is a redeco of the Armada Mini-Con Leader-1, transforming into a moon buggy with twin overhead blasters. Aside from his standard armored buggy mode, he has multiple "gun" configurations that allow him to be mounted on Powerlinx plugs or held in the hands of most Unicron Trilogy toys. He was available only with Megazarak, one of the exclusive toys from OTFCC 2004.
- This mold is also used by Armada Clench, and is the basis for the similar new mold Cybertron Mini-Con Drill Bit.
Notes
[edit]- Unlike what might be expected for toy moldmates, Caliburn and Clench have entirely different statuses in Uprising continuity, with Clench being a Targetmaster who never had Caliburn's engine or vehicle modes.
