When the [[Decepticon]]s need something delivered, they can turn to the [[Constructicon Warrior]] '''Payload'''. His heavily armored and powerful body allows him to simply smash obstacles. [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] is the latest Autobot to get in his way, and Payload is amused that Ratchet thinks he can stop him.

: A [[redeco]] of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Voyager-class Long Haul, Payload transforms from a genericized "earth mover" dump truck with a functional truck bed into a bulky robot mode. In robot mode, he has three "[[Mech Alive]]" gimmicks: Turning his head also turns a cog in his chest, bending his elbows moves some pistons, and finally, moving his feet also moves the "springs" connected to them inwards. Only the piston gimmick is advertised on the packaging. Meanwhile, each forearm houses a spring-loaded, flip-out axe. Furthermore, Payload has a mild variant, where the purple paint on his head and chest can be very dark and flat or extremely deep and shiny. The latter version seems to be the harder to find, although exact quantities of each are unknown.

Thighy
The yellow dump truck and Rampage appear as an orange leg on the body of "Desert Devastation" Devastator, a super-sized Robot Heroes figure. He is only available in a multi-pack with Skids and Mudflap in their vehicle modes and William Lennox.



Notes

  • Though the unknown Constructicon shares a similar alternate mode with another one of Devastator's components, Long Haul, he's a different, longer model of dump truck.
  • Interestingly, the dump truck that transforms into Supreme Devastator's right leg is supposed to represent Long Haul and is thus green. However, the shape and details of the vehicle look much more like the unknown dump truck than Long Haul's alt mode.
  • When asked, Hasbro neither had a name for this poor sod nor recognised his existence as Devastator's leg (saying there were only seven Constructicons in Devastator).
