Mach Kick is a Maximal from the Beast Wars Neo portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
My Little Maximal

Mach Kick (マッハキック Mahha Kikku) is the former sub-commander of the Thoroughbred Corps. After their destruction at the hands of the Predacons, he was left the only survivor. Once he recovered, he voluntarily joined up with Big Convoy to aid in his quest to obtain the Angolmois Capsules.

Mach Kick has a very free spirit and a rowdy attitude, cavorting about and partying like he was in a college fraternity rather than a grisly war. This behavior continually causes him to butt heads with his "old buddy", Longrack, who is a notorious stick-in-the-mud. Mach Kick has something of an "idol worshiping" complex in regards to Big Convoy, whom he respects for being so powerful and "cool". He strives to do his best to impress his commander, even at tasks as menial as KP. His attempts to "do a good job" typically result in him encroaching upon the personal space of his peers, who just can't stand him.

IDW Beast Wars comics

Mach Kick was the remaining survivor of the Thoroughbred Corps, which were otherwise wiped out in the Great War. He joined Big Convoy's crew and helped in the defeat of Magmatron. Thanks to his service, he was selected to become part of Lio Convoy's elite special operations unit, the Pack. Beast Wars Sourcebook #2

Mach Kick traveled with the Pack to prehistoric Earth to rescue Razorbeast. He was put in charge of tracking Razorbeast's near-non-existent signal back to its source. When the group charged into battle with the Predacons there, he smashed Scourge with a buck to the chest, and Terragator attempted to ride him bareback. It didn't go well for Terragator. The Ascending #2

After dealing with the Predacons, the Pack were surprised to find the Angolmois-infected Razorbeast going on a rampage. Mach Kick gave Apache a ride to the site where their former comrade was wrecking 'bots of both factions indiscriminately, but did not himself participate in subduing Razorbeast. The Ascending #3

Later on, Mach Kick was one of the many Maximals that hitched a ride back to Cybertron in order to combat the greater threat that resided there: Shokaract. Near the climax of the battle, he wielded weapon-mode Break, blasting the monster. The Ascending #4

TransTech

A Mach Kick found his way to Axiom Nexus, and entered the competitive world of Equinicon races. His performance in one race came under fire, as it was suspected that his Mini-Con partner, Fastbreak, had given him a speed boost via an illegal in-race Powerlinx. The pair refused to comment to reporters about the allegations. Rook - Axiom Nexus News, 2015/05/04

Beast Wars: Uprising

Mach Kick was a member of the Resistance movement fighting against the Builders. He operated as part of Grimlock's cell. When Grimlock acquired the G-Virus, his cell planned to release it at Tesarus Arena when the Games restarted. Mach Kick acted as point-bot as the group infiltrated the arena, but he was called up short when Grimlock's battle instincts detected something amiss. Mach Kick failed to listen to his commander's warning, and continued walking forward until he set off a mine, killing him in a nanoklik. Micro-Aggressions

2005 IDW continuity

Mach Kick was one of Onyx Prime's Maximals. When this bestial horde invaded Cybertron, he was one of the many warriors who wound up battling Arcee. Endless Forever

My Little Pony/Transformers

If you stay too long in Equestria, you get a Generation 2 color scheme.

After a space bridge accident left many Transformers stuck in the magical land of Equestria, Mach Kick took part in a friendly race to find the fastest among them. Unfortunately, it was interupted by Decepticons before Mach Kick could prove victorious, and in the end, they were beaten by Windblade and Rainbow Dash. The Flyin' Fox Trot

Toys

Beast Wars

My God. What have you done. Look what your careless hands have wrought. Each moment this unnatural beast lives is like a thousand years of misery. Look in its brown eyes. It longs for death. Select the pistol, and then, select your horse.
  • Mach Kick (Deluxe, March 1999)
Part of the third wave of Beast Wars Neo toys, Mach Kick transforms into a gray-blue organic horse with a rooted nylon-hair tail (awwwww). Pressing back on the horse's mane causes the head to spring forward via jackspring mechanism as a ramming attack. This gimmick is usable in all three modes. His soft, brushable tail is attached to a hatchet for use in robot mode. His robot mode also features rooted hair in a ponytail (see what they did there?) on his head.
Mach Kick has a third "Protect Mode", and moreso than all the other Neo new-mold-toy third modes, it is an horrendous pile of limbs and ball-joints that holds no meaning, only madness.
Mach Kick is widely considered one of the most infuriating Transformers toys to actually transform, thanks to being a shellformer with approximately 467 ball-and-socket joints that need to be positioned juuuuust right or else nothing will properly connect. On the other hand, it can also rear up on its hind legs in a dramatic pose in beast mode and stand unassisted doing so.


Black Beauty: The Land Before Time
  • Favorites Showdown: Mach Kick VS Archadis (VS pack, March 1999)
    • Japanese ID number: VS-36
    • Accessories: "Tail-hatchet"
Mach Kick was available both as an individual and in a "Favorites Showdown" (本命の対決 honmei no taiketsu) two-pack with the Predacon Archadis. Both toys in the set were identical to their individual releases.


Notes

  • Mach Kick is one of three Beast Wars Neo toys whose designs were determined via a contest held by Japanese Television Magazine. The winning designs were revealed in the April 1999 issue. The other winning designs became Archadis and Bazooka.
