Beast Machines Che is more an action-figure-compatible vehicle than actual action figure. A chariot shaped like a technorganic cheetah-head in yellow, clear-orange and clear-green, Che can carry most Basic-sized toys on its back platform secured by a gripper claw. Pressing down on the top of the cheetah snout winds up the toy’s motor and sends it rolling forward, as well as spinning its twin claw-arms when they are locked in the forward-facing position.
It also has twin spring-loaded missiles in its mouth, which can be fired independently. The gripper claw used to secure figures can be swung forward into an attack position, though doing so then swinging back just the claw portion of the assembly reveals a non-firing twin-barreled blaster.
Later on, Che received a running change redeco in clear-blue, clear-orange, and black plastic, though the packaging does not reflect this change.

Notes

[edit]
  • According to Che's toy bio, Cheetor created Che at a time when he was "relentlessly hunted by Megatron and frustrated by Optimus Primal's beliefs". This description matches the status quo of the latter half of the cartoon's first season (particularly matching Cheetor's most defiant behavior during "The Key" and "The Catalyst"), suggesting that Che was created by Cheetor around that time (at least, in the toy bios' continuity and possibly in the 3H comics).
  • As Che worked best with Basic-class figures, most versions of Beast Machines Cheetor could not actually ride it. Well, there was always the McDonald's toy... but now there's also the Legacy Core Class toy.
