Hailing from the Infernac Universe, the Armorizers are a group of living rocks with the ability to transform.
Known Armorizers include:
- Bouldercrash (red tricycle)—a lava creature.
- Magneous (car)—an obsidian warrior.
- Shard (helicopter)—a being made from pure death crystal.
- Nucleous (jet-powered car)—a toxic nucleon elemental.
- Geocron (purple tricycle)—a rock creture.[sic]
Toys
- Infernac Universe Bouldercrash (Core Class, 2024)
- Known designers: Mark Maher and Evan Brooks (Hasbro), Takio Ejima (TakaraTomy)
- The Legacy: United Armorizers are the successors to the Junkions released in Legacy: Evolution.
- While Magneous, Shard, and Nucleous inherit the Weaponizers', Fossilizers', and Junkions' abilities to be split apart to form armor and weapons, Bouldercrash and Geocron are more akin to the smaller partner figures of Legends Class toys from Thrilling 30, triple changing from robot to vehicle to weapon for bigger figures to wield.
Notes
- The Armorizers take inspiration from both Daira's rocky inhabitants as seen in the Headmasters episode "My Friend Sixshot!", and the Rock Lords of GoBots fame.[1]
- While next to no information is provided on Armorizer physiology, species creator Mark Maher notes that they are definitely not sparked in the vein of traditional Transformers, and the design team tended towards concave torsos to illustrate this.[2]
Foreign names
- Japanese: Infernac (インフェルナック Inferunakku), Armorizer System (アーマーライザーシステム Āmāraizā Shisutemu)
