==Notes==
* It's ''possible'' that the image of the toy depicts Big Rescue Force as the bio writer really intended him to look, but given the toys' origins, it seems more likely that said writer was under the impression that the Rescue Force would be able to form a ''complete'' robot. Sadly, this is not only [[authorial intent]] but ''speculative'' authorial intent, and as such any interpretations lie squarely within the realm of [[personal canon]].

The Rescue Force are four individually-sold, unnamed redecos of four out of the six Victory Breastforce members, sold only as part of the European-market Transformers toyline. And like the Breastforce's Liokaiser, these toys can be combined into a larger robot. However, since the Rescue Force lacks redecoes of Hellbat and Guyhawk, and the jet/torso component does not come with Liokaiser's helmet kibble, Big Rescue Force has no proper arms and his "head" consists only of the back of Rescue Force's head.
The solution for the former, as engineered by fans and canonized in the Wings Universe comics, involves using the claws of Rescue Force 1 (which are exclusive to this release and not included with Killbison) as replacement arms, which end up sitting near Big Rescue Force's hips instead of his shoulders, but at least give him a modicum of articulation as they can turn up and down. As for the latter... you just have to pretend that the pair of recessed plastic lines in the back of Rescue Force's head are the face of the combiner.
Broken as it is, the Rescue Force's combination gimmick is not mentioned anywhere on their packaging. But a Transformers sticker album distributed in Europe by Kent in 1993 describes the Rescue Force members as combiners in their individual bios, so uhh... yeah. This album is where the name "Big Rescue Force" comes from.
