Rescue Bots Academy
- Whirl the Flight-Bot (2019)
- Whirl's first toy is sized similarly to the previous Megabots line, transforming into a helicopter in a couple of "Easy 2 Do Conversion" steps. In either bot or vehicle mode, pressing a button on her rotor causes it to spin. She comes packaged in robot mode, and helpfully, a cutout in the package allows this gimmick to be tried in-store without removing her from the package.
Notes
- Rescue Bots Academy Whirl is the first incarnation of the character to be portrayed as a female.
