- T-Wrecks (Ultra Class, 2000)
- Accessories: 2 spring-launched blade-missiles, water squirter
T-Wrecks was repurposed as Red Megatron.
- Beast Machines T-Wrecks is a redeco of Beast Wars Ultra Class Megatron. He transforms into a Tyrannosaurus rex, with a water-spraying gimmick inside his dino-mode mouth. In robot mode, his left arm has a lunging/snapping claw gimmick, plus he has a pair of hip-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers. He retains the "mutant head" gimmick as well: a pair of bat-like "wings" on his helmet that swing forward to cover his face as a "battle mask" (a feature which, unlike the original Megatron's, was actually depicted in fiction).
