- Frostbite (Deluxe Class, 2005)
- Accessories: Tail-blade
- Known designers: Marcelo Matere (packaging artist)
- Part of the eighth wave of Universe Deluxes, Frostbite is a redeco of the Beast Wars Transmetal 2 Maximal Jawbreaker, transforming into a twisted cyber-organic hyena. The tail becomes a massive, multi-bladed sword. A push-trigger spins a buzzsaw on the beast mode back, which becomes the robot mode's right arm.
- The hyena jaws were designed to swing down and away from the rest of the head, forming a more distinct grasping hand for the robot mode. This feature is shown on the packaging photographs, but on the final toy it was "neutered" by the addition of rigid plastic pegs locking the jaws into the skull. It is possible to carefully break these pegs in order to restore the feature.
