'''Muskhorn''' (ムスクホーン ''Musukuhōn''), or just '''Musk''' (ムスク ''Musuku''), is one of the [[Autobot]]-allied Beastformers fighting a war on the planet [[Beast (planet)|Beast]]. His role in the Autobot Beastformer forces is a mountain combatant. He also holds the rank of King of [[West Yutoranta]], in the mountains of which he was born, over Emperor [[Pangol]], who unfortunately chose to fight on the opposite side in the war. A musician with a big heart, he is often seen practicing his craft and creating new songs that give peace of mind to those who hear them. His [[MVP Weapon]], the Mind Sabel, can emit a secret aroma from the Yutorantan mountains with the power to affects the brains of other creatures, allowing Muskhorn to control them. It can also draw out people's hidden potential and any dormant superpowers they may have.
Now the King of West Yutoranta, Muskhorn spends his time practicing music, particularly the alpenhorn. He carries himself with a well-trained air, and uses his music to soothe the souls of his people. It's clearly working, since he's managed to tame the vicious [[Pangol]], who has become a peaceful being and now serves as Muskhorn's subordinate Emperor.

Muskhorn is a Beastformer from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Thankfully not Elon…

Though he's physically incredibly strong, true to his name, Muskhorn (ムスクホーン Musukuhōn) uses scent as his greatest weapon. A gentle soul, he has learned secret arts from deep within the West Yutoranta mountains, which allow him to hinder his foes and assist his allies. With the right scents generated by his MVP Weapon the Mind Sabel (マインドサーベル Maindo Sāberu), he can actually control other living beings for a short while, or temporarily draw out and enhance someone's latent superpowers. But scent is also his weakness: he's incredibly sensitive to foul odors, which can push him into a terrifying battle rage.

Now the King of West Yutoranta, Muskhorn spends his time practicing music, particularly the alpenhorn. He carries himself with a well-trained air, and uses his music to soothe the souls of his people. It's clearly working, since he's managed to tame the vicious Pangol, who has become a peaceful being and now serves as Muskhorn's subordinate Emperor.

During this line, Muskhorn was only available in the Burstsun Special Set (バーストサンスペシャルセット Bāsutosan Supesharu Setto) multipack. This blindpacked set contains 10 figures out of a potential 14. Thankfully, these were not randomly-packed, and came in two distinct lineups.
