Toys

[edit]

Universe (2003)

[edit]
  • Crystal Widow vs Oil Slick (Multi-pack, 2004)
The Search and Destroy Robot is almost completely identical to the Armada Mini-Con Nightbeat, transforming into a motorcycle of indeterminate model. The only differences between the two are slight differences in the shades of plastic used, and also that Search and Destroy Robot's rear wheel assembly was installed upside-down (the "B"-shaped joint bolted to the main body is arranged so the indent faces towards the body on the Robot, where Nightbeat has it pointing away).
It was only available only as part of a Kmart exclusive set, along with his larger partner Oil Slick (who has a compartment to store the Robot in vehicle mode) and Crystal Widow.
This mold was also used to make the also-nigh-identical Universe Nightbeat (who shares the rear wheel assembly error), and the Galaxy Force Micron Booster Mini-Con Gauge.

Notes

[edit]
  • Although the toy has a Mini-Con insignia, the Search and Destroy Robot(s) has been established in-universe to not be a Mini-Con.
