: Railspike and the rest of the ''Universe'' Micromasters were released in the "main" line in Europe (''[[Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' or ''[[Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''). Presumably this is because the ''Universe'' line was never released in the European market. Why the Micromasters were the only part of the ''Universe'' line to get a European release in unknown, but it probably had something to do with their sub-Basic class size and previously being Japanese-exclusive molds.

Toys

Universe

  • Railspike (Micromaster Railbot, 2005)
    • Accessories: Rail Racer torso
Railspike is physically identical to the 2003 Takara reissue version of Desire, transforming into a Tokaido "Nozomi" bullet train. He has a flip-down "socket" arm on his train-mode back-end that lets him link up with any of his teammates with a "peg" link-arm. He can form the chest to any Micromaster "Sixteam" combined robot (though he requires the train-mold-team torso), but his nominal placement is as the chest of Rail Racer.
This mold was also used to make Spark.
Like all of the Railbots, he was originally a Kay-Bee stores exclusive, but later made his way to other outlets, most notably drugstores like CVS.

Cybertron

  • Railspike (Micromaster Railbot, 2005)
    • Accessories: Rail Racer torso
Railspike and the rest of the Universe Micromasters were released in the "main" line in Europe Cybertron). Presumably this is because the Universe line was never released in the European market. Why the Micromasters were the only part of the Universe line to get a European release in unknown, but it probably had something to do with their sub-Basic class size and previously being Japanese-exclusive molds.
