Along with Skywarp, he was dispatched to investigate Galvatron's artificial planet, Nemesis, and provide Lio Convoy with backup on Gaea. He is a philanthropist and greatly respects life of all kind. He refuses to kill. As a doctor it is his duty to do otherwise and help the wounded.
He can combine with Lio Junior and Skywarp to form Magnaboss.

- Japanese ID number: C-28
- Accessories: 2 guns
- A slight redeco of Beast Wars Ironhide, Santon transforms from a stumpy robot to an African elephant. He is a very complex to transform, with numerous hinges and panels unfolding between modes. Two guns, hidden behind the beast mode's ears. can be removed and plugged into the holes at the bottom of Santon's stump arms. He can combine with Skywarp and Lio Junior to form Magnaboss II.
- Magnaboss (Multi-pack, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: X-4
- Santon was also available as part of a multi-pack with Skywarp and Lio Junior.
Notes
- "San" is the Japanese word for "three". "Ton"... is not a Japanese word. Therefore, Santon's name most likely means "three-ton".
- Santon's function as a medic is less surprising when one considers the fact that he is a redeco of Ironhide, who has a bad habit of being redecoed/retooled into medics.
