Universe Knockdown is a redeco of Classics Wideload, transforming into an "earth-mover" dump truck. As a Mini-Con, he has a "Powerlinx" socket that allows him to connect to larger toys with compatible plugs; however, Knockdown's socket is on the top of his dump-bed, on a hinged piece that doesn't lock down attached to another hinged piece that doesn't lock down, making him incredibly awkward to Powerlinx with other toys.
He was only available as part of a Kmart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack, along with Backstop, Blight, Boltflash, Bodyblock, Brimstone, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Makeshift, Skyhammer, and Suppressor.
This mold was also used to make Refuser, Mighty Dozer, and Heavy-Liftor.

  • Knockdown (Candy toy, 2010)
In the UK, all twelve Mini-Cons from the original "Mini-Con Class 12 Pack" set were released in individual blind-packed bags with "energon fizzy jellies" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd.
This version of Knockdown is actually a new tooling with numerous tiny differences from the original, but is functionally the same toy. These changes include a thicker Mini-Con sigil print, altered production stamping (removing "Hasbro China" and "Takara" from them in favor of just "Hasbro"), smaller pin-heads on the steel connector pins, and generally less crisp molding.
