Victory Leo is an Autobot from the Victory portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
He painted the ends of his guns orange to trick the Decepticons into thinking they're toys. Tricky, tricky, tricky...

Victory Leo (ビクトリーレオ Bikutorī Reo) is a powerful Autobot warrior who transforms into a robotic lion and works alongside Star Saber. Unlike the Universe's Greatest Swordsman, Victory Leo seems to be more of a ranged fighter, armed with multiple guns and cannons. Among these weapons is his powerful V-Lock cannon.

Voice actor: Hiroshi Takemura (Japanese){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}

God Ginrai became good friends with Star Saber and his adopted human son, Jan. The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber Before long, Star Saber was appointed Supreme Commander of the Autobots, but not before asking God Ginrai for advice and a promise that the Godmaster would help out the Brainmaster in his duties as Autobot leader. Ginrai Dies!! God Ginrai would subsequently become commander of the Second Army. The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber Operating out of the base in the G Nebula, God Ginrai's time was occupied battling the Decepticon forces under Overlord's control, so much so that Star Saber occasionally had to respond to emergencies in Sector Two, such as a Breastforce attack on planet Micro. Planet Micro - The Mysterious Warrior

Not Convoy death #435.

Feeling guilty over taking up Star Saber's time in such a manner, God Ginrai was quick to come to his aid when the newly reunited Breastforce combiner Liokaiser proved too much for Star Saber to handle, Unite! Liokaiser and also later when Star Saber was lured into a trap on Earth by Decepticon Emperor of Destruction Deathsaurus. Confronting Deathsaurus in battle, God Ginrai was struck by a blast from the villain's Living-Metal-Destroying Cannon and fatally damaged. A Deadly Battle

Despite the best medical efforts of Perceptor, Wheeljack, and Minerva, God Ginrai's body was left useless and immobile. Due to a slip by Perceptor, however, he learned of the existence of a reconstruction process conceived by Star Saber that would allow him to become a power-up for the Autobot leader. Star Saber refused to allow him to submit to the process, revolted at the notion of using his close friend's body in such a way, but God Ginrai insisted. Perceptor and Wheeljack brought his life functions to an end, and then restored him to Star Saber's specifications as Victory Leo. Ginrai Dies!!

An unfortunate side-effect of the process left Victory Leo's mind and body unbalanced; immediately after his transformation, he began to run wild in his lion mode, displaying a more wild, feral nature than God Ginrai ever had, leaving Jan dismayed at the apparent loss of the being he had considered his friend. Fight!! Victory Leo When Jan was trapped in a collapsed building as Victory Leo battled the Breastforce, his pleas for help reached Victory Leo, and God Ginrai's buried persona emerged. Remembering his connections to the other Autobots, Victory Leo rescued Jan and Holi. Awaken! Victory Leo

"Bitches love cannons."

When Deathsaurus threatened the Earth with orbital missile strikes if the Autobots interfered in the Decepticons' energy-gathering raids, Victory Leo had to be forcibly held back by the Brainmasters to prevent him from attacking their enemies and dooming the planet. Star Saber came to the rescue with a new unification circuit implanted within his body. With this new component, he and Victory Leo could combine their bodies into Victory Saber. In the form of a combined jet, Victory Saber soared into space at a faster rate than Deathsaurus had predicted, and then in their combined robot form, destroyed the satellite controlling the missiles. The Tide Is Turned! The Ultimate Weapon, the Victory Unification

When Jan's school was attacked by the Dinoforce, Victory Leo departed from Shuttle Base to defend it, meeting up with Star Saber on the way. They arrived on Earth in time to see Goryu capture Jan's new mech. Unable to fight back while the Dinoforce held a hostage, Victory Leo and Star Saber had little choice but to face enemy fire, until Jan unleashed smoke grenades from his mech to escape. The Dinoforce combined into Dinoking, prompting Star Saber and Victory Leo to form Victory Saber and win the day. Jan - Defend the Campus!!

"Let's go Voltron Force!"

When Breastforce member Leozack impersonated Star Saber so that he could steal the manual to Star Saber and Victory Leo's combination, the latter realized that something was amiss thanks to his "animal senses". However, the other Autobots were not convinced to break their trust in the "Supreme Commander" and Leozack attempted to turn them against Victory Leo. The true Star Saber showed up in the nick of time and combined with Victory Leo to put an end to the Decepticon plot. At the end of the day, the Autobots apologized to Victory Leo for not believing him. A Mystery?! The Deception of the Base Bombs Victory Leo's friendship with Jan continued, with the Autobot assisting the human in training in the Illumina II. When Star Saber caught in a trap by Deathsaurus, Victory Leo and the Autobots rushed to assist, but were held back by a barrier. However, they discovered that the barrier did not react to the nonliving metal in the Illumina II, allowing Jan to create a hole that Victory Leo could pass through. Inside, they were threatened by the Doriya, till Victory Leo hit on the idea of using his Freezer Beam to freeze the insects. After Jan succeeded in taking down the barrier, Victory Saber was formed and the combined warrior sent the Decepticons into retreat. The Death-Bringing Space Insects!!

When the Decepticons forced Atlantis to rise from the ocean floor, the resulting tsunami caused damage across the Atlantic coasts, and Victory Leo was sent to assist Star Saber in holding up train tracks in Spain to allow evacuations to proceed. They were interrupted in the middle of their efforts by the Breastforce and soon formed Victory Saber to fight against their enemies. Victory Saber had Liokaiser on the ropes till another tsunami approached. The combined warrior was swallowed up by the water, but managed to emerge unscathed. The Terror of the Giant Tidal Waves

When Deathsaurus finally succeeded in reactivating his colossal, planet-destroying battle fortress, Victory Leo and Star Saber combined into Victory Saber and took to space to try and stop the deadly craft, only to be knocked out by its weapons and crash, unconscious, on its surface. The Wrath of the Resurrected Giant Fortress! Recovering as it transformed into its "Destroyer Mode", Victory Saber attacked again but was confronted by Breastforce combiner Liokaiser. At the same time, Jan arrived in his mobile mech with information that could destroy the fortress, and Victory Saber separated so that Star Saber could follow him into the fortress. Victory Leo took on Liokaiser and defeated him by hurling him into the fortress's cannon barrel. Jan then succeeded in beginning the fortress's destruction, and Deathsaurus, defeated by Star Saber, set the craft on a collision course with Earth. Forming Victory Saber once again, the two heroes successfully destroyed the fortress and saved the planet. Showdown! The Fortress vs the Victory Unification

And no one showed the slightest concern for Victory Leo's well-being. Jerks.

When planet Feminia was being attacked by Overlord, Abominus, and Menasor, Victory Leo accompanied Star Saber, but only as a part of Victory Saber. Victory Saber was rescued by Dai Atlas and Sonic Bomber but the Zone base had been attacked by Overlord, Menasor, Abominus, Bruticus, and BlackZarak and the Energon Z was stolen. Victory Saber put Dai Atlas in charge of the mission to find the Energon and stop the Decepticons. He was later seen again as part of Victory Saber when Dai Atlas was appointed new Supreme Commander. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!

[edit]

While exploring the universe, Star Saber and Victory Leo discovered that many planets were withering and life was dying. Investigating to discover that the source was a vortex of negative energy on Earth in the year of 2004 on the other side of the Blastizone. Travelling through the Blastizone, the two split up to cover more ground on Earth. When Star Saber came under attack by Smokesniper and Gigant Bomb, Victory Leo sensed his partner was in danger and rushed to assist. Go! Star Saber The lion was spotted by a few of the time's native Decepticons in the sky—Starscream, Air Hunter, and Wingstun. They attacked the unfamiliar Autobot, but the lion was saved by the timely help of Optimus Primal and Bound Rogue. The three reached Star Saber, and Victory Leo merged with his partner to become Victory Saber and defeat Gigant Sniper, the combined form of Gigant Bomb and Smokesniper. In the aftermath, the four joined Optimus Prime's Autobot forces. Bonds Stronger than Steel

Soon, a solitarium-empowered Gigant Bomb had Optimus Prime, Optimus Primal, Bound Rogue and Mirage on the ropes, until Victory Leo and Star Saber suddenly appeared on the battlefield to intervene. The pair merged into Victory Saber and destroyed the Decepticons' solitarium with a single strike, causing the pair to immediately flee the scene. The Victory Warriors Enter!!

When Lio Convoy came through the Blastizone, he was mentally confused and exploited by Beast Megatron, who convinced the Maximal that the Autobots were evil. Lio Convoy soon spotted Star Saber and Victory Leo flying above and attacked. Victory Leo came face to face with his fellow lion before combining with his partner to become Victory Saber. Lio Convoy Storms In Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal were able to intercede and use the Matrix to convince Lio Convoy of the true situation. Together, the four leaders sent the Decepticons fleeing. Together, the 4 Great Supreme Commanders

The Autobots were tasked by the United Nations to go undercover in the Middle East to uncover an underworld market working in alliance with the Decepticons. Taking advantage of the Decepticons' ignorance of future Autobots, Optimus Prime sent Star Saber and Victory Leo, disguised with "optical camouflage" that could only last six hours. Their weapons were modulated as to not cause any unnecessary human causalities, and a cover story of the duo seceding from the Autobots was provided. Victory Saber Limited Black Edition

When a robot claiming to be Reverse Convoy appeared, Victory Leo agreed to join a contigent of Autobots to investigate a claimed attack on Reverse Convoy at Sherman Dam. Strategic Meeting: The Mysterious New Warrior This turned out to be a trick by "Reverse Convoy", who revealed himself to be the missing Megatron. The intervention of Lio Convoy and Star Saber was able to save the other Autobots. The Dark Emperor of Destruction, Reborn

Victory Saber joined an no holds barred fight between the Autobots and Decepticons, specifically going against Gigant Sniper. The battle went on for three days and nights till the Autobots were victorious. With the power of solitarium, Star Saber and Victory Leo returned to their proper time. And Then

When Star Saber went back in time to 2004, Victory Leo went with him to help him fight against the Decepticons. They ran afoul of Starscream, and combined into Victory Saber to take the fight up close and personal. It took the arrival of Optimus Prime for the Decepticon Air Commander to be defeated, but at that point, Megatron, Gigant Bomb, and Smokesniper arrived. Victory Saber kept Gigant Bomb and Smokesniper busy while Prime defeated Megatron with aid from the newly arrived Optimus Primal. Fight! The Group of the Strongest Commanders!

When Beast Megatron launched an attack on a human city, Victory Leo flew in Optimus Prime in order to quickly respond to the situation. He then combined once more with Star Saber to take on Gigant Sniper, but disengaged when the two Decepticons likewise split up. As he pursued the Decepticons through the sky, Victory Leo was then blasted by Reverse Convoy, who was really the original Megatron in disguise. Prime and Primal were able to defeat the two Megatrons with the aid of newcomer Lio Convoy, after which Star Saber and Victory Leo linked up in jet mode to carry Prime to the next battle.

Victory comic

[edit]

Doctor Minakaze discovered the "super-energy ore" known as gurunium. The substance was incorporated in the alloy for the body of the new Autobot warrior, Victory Leo. Dr. Minakaze and his wife were killed in a Decepticon attack, and, at some point, their daughter, Patty Minakaze met and joined up with Victory Leo.

As Star Saber fell to a combined attack from Deathsaurus, Dinoking, and Liokaiser, Victory Leo arrived with Patty as reinforcements. His gurunium body allowed him to resist Deathsaurus's Living-Metal-Destroying Cannon and merge with Star Saber via the "Victory Combination", allowing the pair to become Victory Saber. The Strongest Pair, the Combination of Victory!

To combat the threat of Victory Saber, Deathsaurus forced the slaves of planet Guard to construct a mech unit for his son called King Solon. As Victory Saber arrived to free the people of Guard, Deathsaurus combined with King Solon to form Kingsaurus. The two foes proved to be evenly matched, with their battle raging on for hours, until Solon was momentarily distracted by Patty. Victory Saber then bested Kingsaurus, destroying the King Solon mech unit. Victory Saber Is Strong!

Soon afterward, Victory Saber, Laster, and Braver found themselves in a losing battle against Deathsaurus and Liokaiser on Earth. Luckily, the Victories arrived (with newest member, Solon) and used their "Five Stars of Victory" attack to transfer their unique abilities into their corresponding Transformer. Patty transferred the power of her love into Victory Leo, giving him the boost Victory Saber needed to send the Decepticons packing back to their space stronghold. Shine, Five Stars of Victory

From the Space Stronghold, the Decepticons initiated their all-out attack on Earth. Victory Leo helped fend off the Decepticons as Star Saber took out Deathsaurus (well, really, Leozack did that) and the Breastforce. With the battle won, it was revealed that the Decepticons had been fighting for the survival of all the Decepticon civilians living within the Space Stronghold. From atop Victory Leo's shoulder, Patty invited all the Decepticon families to live in peace on Planet V. And so the Victory War ended. The Grand Victory War

Arriving on the battlefield, Victory Leo merged with Star Saber to form Victory Saber... only to ruin Victory Saber's speech by growling constantly. He's Here! Victory Saber!! After Star Saber's tuna gambit failed on Liokaiser, he called Victory Leo to ask him for assistance. Don't Lose! Star Saber!! Facing off against Megatron and Deathsaurus, Victory Leo transformed to lion mode and trounced them! At least until Megatron tossed him a giant ball of yarn, and the Decepticons ran away while he was distracted. Tough as Nails! Victory Leo!

Aerodynamic!

A member of Colonial Security, Victory Leo provided an off-ship escort for the starship Fist of Iacon. When the ship was boarded by Spinister's splice-thieves, Chromedome activated their distress beacon, and the heavily armed Cybertronian showed up to provide Ultra Magnus with some air support on the planet Obsidar, then used his beast mode to take down the majority of the villains by himself. Storm Horizon Part 2 Victory Leo then escorted the scavengers to Fist of Iacon's brig as Magnus suited up to go after Spinister's boss. He watched as Magnus rescued Alpha Trion from Soundblaster and a black hole. Afterwards, however, Victory Leo and Chromedome realized that due to the time-dilation effect of their proximity to the black hole, they had missed out on more than seventy cycles worth of activity on Cybertron. Namely, Megatron and the Ascenticons violently overthrowing the Senate. As they approached the planet, Magnus played a message of Megatron's that had been playing on repeat. Alpha Trion reassured everyone present that the artifacts he had been collecting would offer some hope. Storm Horizon Part 3

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers

[edit]

V-I-C-T-O-R-Y! Three-Two-One-Zero, never give up! Oh yeah!
  • Victory Leo (1989)
    • ID number: C-327
    • Accessories: "V-Lock Cannon", 2 "V-Lock Rifles", 3 missiles
Sold in the Victory portion of the Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers toyline, Victory Leo transforms into a black, yellow, and white robotic saber-toothed lion with wings. Both modes are dominated by the missile-firing "V-Lock Cannon" that rises from his back between his wings in alternate mode, or plugs into his hip in robot mode. A flying alternate mode was created for the character by the production staff of the cartoon, and the toy is capable of being configured into this form, although it is essentially just a block with wings. While the "official" configuration used in the cartoon lacks the V-Lock Cannon entirely, it can be attached to the same place that it does in the Victory Saber alternate mode (pictured to the right).
The flip-out landing gear that Victory Leo provides for the Victory Saber spaceship mode (and if you're feeling generous, his own) are legendarily fragile.
Victory Leo combines with Star Saber, sold separately, to become Victory Saber.


Oh woe is me! To be transformed, transmogrified, shapeshifted, bewitched and bemoaned! To be naught but a shoe!
  • Victory Saber (Brainmaster gift set, 1989)
    • ID number: C-328
Victory Leo was also available in a gift set with Star Saber. Victory Leo can combine with Star Saber by plugging into the aft end of his flight mode, thus becoming a huge booster section, or by disassembling and connecting to Star Saber's robot mode. His legs and chest compress into a pair of "platform boots" that connect to the base of Star Saber's feet, while his other components form a winged backpack that aims his twin cannons over Star Saber's shoulders. In this mode, Victory Saber can also wield the V-Lock Cannon as a handheld weapon.

Robotmasters

[edit]
Still a more convincing lion than Lio Convoy, somehow.
  • Victory Leo (2004)
    • ID number: RM-16
    • Acessories: "V-Lock Cannon", 2 "V-Lock Rifles", missile, "Superconductor Rifle"
A smaller, simplified version of the Victory Leo toy, the Robotmasters version of the figure arms Victory Leo with a new, yellow gun. It also has a modified official starship mode. Like the larger figure, Victory Leo can combine with Robotmasters Star Saber.
Due to how the legs are jointed for the transformation scheme, it has stupid, floppy robot mode legs.


Shoes with knees?
  • Victory Saber (Multi-pack, 2004)
    • ID number: RM-17
    • Acessories: "V-Lock Cannon", 2 "V-Lock Rifles", missile, "Superconductor Rifle"
Victory Leo was also available in a two-pack with the Robotmasters version of Star Saber, with whom he could still combine to form Victory Saber, in both jet and robot modes. The two figures in this pack featured a more metallic paint job than their standard releases.


It is I, Nemesis Breaker.
Get yourself some black pumps, they go with everything.
  • Victory Saber Limited Black Version (e-HOBBY exclusive, 2005)
    • ID number: RM-17
    • Acessories: "V-Lock Cannon", 2 "V-Lock Rifles", missile, "Superconductor Rifle"
Available only as an e-HOBBY exclusive two-pack, this iteration of Robotmasters Victory Saber features the heroic Autobot pair of Star Saber and Victory Leo in the by-then standard-issue "evil hero colors" of black and gray with turquoise and purple highlights, with some bronze thrown in, as well as Decepticon symbols. This redeco represents the two heroes in "optical camouflage" paint jobs for use on an undercover mission to investigate Decepticon dealings in the Middle East black market… according to online listings.
This set was packaged in the normal retail-release Victory Saber 2-pack box, completely unaltered save for the addition of a sticker on the window announcing its name and e-HOBBY exclusive status. The collector's card inside is similarly exactly the same one as packaged with the normal Victory Saber set.

Legacy

[edit]
Come on, that jet mode is hilarious.
  • Victory Saber (2022)
    • Accessories: 2 "V-Lock Rifles", "V-Lock Cannon"
Legacy Victory Leo is bundled alongside "Autobot Star Saber" as the second HasLab crowdfunded figure for Transformers. Victory Leo is a traditional Triple Changer; transforming from robot to winged lion to a not-very-aerodynamic jet. Victory Leo comes with his two 2 V-Lock Rifles which can either mount on his shoulders or be attached to his wrists. The rifle mounts can be articulated over Victory Leo's shoulders, allowing him to aim his shoulder cannons. Victory Leo also includes a small customer-applied sticker sheet to complete the red stripes on the segments of his wings that are made out of unpaintable plastic.
Reunited and it feels so good!
Victory Leo can of course combine with Star Saber to form Victory Saber; granting him either a robot mode with beefed-up legs, shoulder cannons, and a jetpack, or a humongous spaceship mode. Unlike his original Victory toy, which was roughly the same size as Star Saber, HasLab Victory Leo is roughly Voyager Class-sized as opposed to the Prime Wars Trilogy-era Leader Class-sized Star Saber. Presumably, this is to scale the duo's combined Victory Saber form more accurately to the Victory cartoon.
At $179.99, Victory Saber cost less than a third as much as the previous HasLab Transformers product, but required 37% more orders, for a total of 11,000 "backers" before it could go into production. When the figure reached 14,000 backers, the gigantic V-Lock Cannon and 6 Fire Blast effects redecoed from Siege Jetfire was additionally included. At 17,000 backers, a stand was included that can support Victory Saber in either vehicle or robot mode. And, at 20,000 backers, the set included Star Saber's V-Shield and Micromasters Holi and Fire. All three bonus tiers were met about 10 hours before the project's deadline, which occurred on October 10, 2021 to coincide with New York Comic Con.
Victory Saber was marketed as "introducing Japanese canon to the Transformers line for the first time in 30 years", but this requires a little squinting and ignoring prior Hasbro toys of other Japanese-original characters that were made under different contexts.
Victory Leo's reveal clip and subsequent pre-orders depicted only gray prototype stock photos. However, colored stock photography was ultimately revealed during a Hasbro Pulse livestream featuring voice actor Christopher Sabat.<ref>Haslab Victory Saber Color Renders Revealed by The Prince of All Saiyans</ref>
Victory Saber, as a HasLab item, was exclusive to Hasbro Pulse in the U.S., U.K., and Canada, TakaraTomy Mall in Japan, and various retailers for other countries. Unfortunately for Taiwanese fans who backed this project, their toy shipments were heavily water damaged during transit and could not be delivered; those buyers instead received a full refund and a Legacy "A Hero Is Born" Alpha Trion and Orion Pax 2-pack. No, that set is nowhere near as cool. Sorry?
The box comes with a reversible slipcover so owners can display it in two different styles. One side has a "modern" Generations Selects style, with English writing, the Legacy logo, and new wireframe cutaway art. The other side has a more "classic" look with Japanese writing and C-328 serial number, the Victory logo, and art and photos resembling the original box.
Owners should be very careful when folding the black flap down to cover Victory Leo's face, as it risks chipping his paint. In some cases the pin in the hinge may even be misfired and unable to move as intended, causing the flap to simply snap off from the force.
Victory Saber first started shipping to backers, beginning with those living in China, in November 2022.
