Toys
Universe (2008)
- Mini-Con Class 12 Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
- Series: Armada Series
- Heavytread is a redeco of Classics Broadside, transforming from an M1 Abrams main battle tank into a robot with a mini-gun for a right hand. This mold has gained notoriety for its refusal to stand up in robot mode due to its small feet.
- He was only available as part of a K-Mart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Brimstone, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Knockdown, Makeshift, Skyhammer, and Suppressor.
- Heavytread (Mini-Con, 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 sweets" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd. This version of Heavytread is actually a new tooling with numerous tiny differences from the original (and generally less crisp molding), but is functionally the same toy.
Notes
- According to deco artist Joe Kyde, Heavytread's deco is based on Generation 1's Warpath.
