- Bound Rogue is an Autobot from the Robotmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Bound Rogue (バウンドローグ Baundo Rōgu) is the Autobots' premier energy scout, and he takes that duty above all else. He's a young and energetic fighter to be sure, and good with double-blaster action... but he's really keen on finding new energy sources. He'll even abandon a battle if he spots a new source nearby.
Bound Rogue was originally a "normal" fully-mechanical Autobot, but was mutated by Beast Megatron into the animal form he has now.

- Bound Rogue (2004)
- ID number: RM-07
- Release date: July 15, 2004
- Accessories: Tail/"Coolant Gun", "Type 93" rifle
- Part of the first wave of Takara's Robotmasters toys, Bound Rogue is a redeco of the Beast Wars Basic Class Snarl/Tasmania Kid mold, transforming into a large "Tasmanian devil". By holding the toy by its tail in beast mode and pulling the trigger, his body leaps forward in a spring-loaded lunging attack. In robot mode, the tail becomes an arm-mounted (non-firing) "coolant gun" weapon.
- Oddly, an extra hole molded in a similar shape to that of the spring-loaded one is located underneath the robot mode crotch and can also have the tail inserted into it.
- Unique to this release of the toy is the chromed "Type 93" blaster-weapon, which really doesn't mount on his arm in any useful position.
Notes
[edit]- Bound Rogue's coloration is almost identical to a Beast Wars II contest-prize redeco of Tasmania Kid. They both end up looking a lot like Sonic the Hedgehog.
