- Orchanoch is a Maximal from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Orcanoch's orca mode is perfect for seeking out underwater energon sources, if he can keep Arachnid from stealing his internal secrets.
Toys
- Orcanoch (MicroVerse, 1997)
- Orcanoch was released as part of the MicroVerse line, Hasbro’s miniatures line meant to compete with Galoob’s "Micro Machines" (before Hasbro’s purchase of Galoob). It transforms from an orca into a multi-level tower base. Its pectoral fins pull out to reveal a separate one-robot mini-sub. The orca head is removed (and presumably set aside) to reveal a control tower with spring-loaded missile launcher.
- It comes with two micro-figures, Optimus Primal and Tarantulas.
Trivia
- Orchanoch's box-art shows a presumed Maximal that cannot be identified as an existing toy or character. It kind of sort of looks like a cross between Armordillo and Snapper, but isn't either of them.
- Due to containing a mini-figure of Optimus Primal, this otherwise unmemorable micro-set is of interest to Optimus and Megatron completists.
