Potato is a Molcar from Pui Pui Molcar.
So is he a Transmetal or..?

In a time of rising beasts, only one can hold the title of Earth's strongest.[1] Potato (ポテト, Poteto) represents the pinnacle of beast/machine synthesis, possessing an unusual vehicular guinea pig mode. The people of the universe can rest easy knowing that this powerful "Molformer" fights alongside the Autobots and Maximals.

His only known weakness is his affinity for carrots.

Commercial appearances

PUI PUI Molcar × Transformers: Beast Awakening

Notes

  • Potato is the main character of the Japanese stop-motion anime Pui Pui Molcar. The majority of his shots in the trailer take place on typical Molcar sets, albeit in a CG'ed version of the show's typical aesthetic. He only shares the screen with an actual Transformer once, at the end of the trailer, where he leaps into action with Optimus Primal. TakaraTomy's official Transformers movie PR account warns viewers that, unfortunately, Potato does not appear in the full version of the film.[2] #ReleaseTheMolcarCut!
  • Potato's main robot mode artwork is based on a "Molformers" parody poster that frequently appears in the background of many of the show's scenes.[3]
