Fiction
[edit]Ask Vector Prime
[edit]In the Vega Sector, the Multiforce battled the Praetorian to stop him from using the corrupted Reconfiguration Matrix to rewrite all local robotic life into loyal Scrapmetal drones. During their struggles, they evolved from Landcross into Gaiacross. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/07/22
Toys
[edit]Gaiacross
[edit]- Jet (Candy toy, 2011)
- ID number: 1
- Jet is a snap-together candy toy model kit produced by Kabaya, coming in an individual box packed with a stick of (nasty) gum. He transforms from a robot into a jet fighter via quite a fair amount of "partforming".
- He can also combine with any of his teammates to form the upper or lower body of a two-robot combination. His instructions show his upper-half configuration as part of "JetFlame", while Launcher's instructions show how to put Jet into lower-half form as part of "LauncherJet". He can also form any part of the six-part super-robot Gaiacross, though his nominal placement is as the upper torso.
- Due to the softer, waxier plastic used by candy-kit toys, all of the Gaiacross robots can be a bit on the floppy side, and can come apart pretty easily. You might consider (lightly) gluing together some of the non-moving parts, like his torso-halves.
Notes
[edit]- For years there was no information of any kind about the Gaiacross team besides that they fight Decepticons in some other dimension. Of course, pretty much all Transformers battles take place in another dimension. Ask Vector Prime would eventually give them some scant fiction.
- Jet looks to be based on the Multiforce commander Wing from Victory. The two have a similar alt-mode, and form the same part of their teams' super-robot modes.
