Fiction
Dreamwave comics continuity
The Monster Truck Patrol had chosen sides to work with the Autobots by the time Countdown returned to Cybertron roughly three million years ago, but it is unclear whether they had officially joined as a patrol yet. Hydraulic and Big Hauler joined Crunch and the Hot Rod Patrol in rescuing Roadbuster from a Decepticon attack, and used their Cybertronian horsepower to drag him back to base. Destined for Nothing
Toys
Generation 1
- Monster Truck Patrol (Micromaster Patrol, 1990)
- The Monster Truck Patrol was sold as a carded 4-pack at the $5 price point. Like most 1990 Micromasters, their transformations are very homogeneous, basically consisting of flipping out the rear of the vehicle to form the legs, then standing the robot up.
- Save for Slowpoke. You flip out his FRONT end for legs. Care must be taken, such a radical departure from the norm can be jarring for the uninitiated.
Return of Convoy
- Big Truck Team (Micro Trailer team, 1991)
- Japanese ID number: C-361
- Includes Micro Trailer # 1.
Notes
Foreign names
- Japanese: Big Truck Team (ビッグトラックチーム Biggu Torakku Chīmu)
- Italian: Pattuglia Pionieri
