• Double Punch (1998)

• Known designers: Hirofumi Ichikawa (packaging artist)

Available only as part of the BotCon Japan 1998 convention-exclusive Double Punch, Beeline is a redeco of Scorponok's cyberbee. It transforms from the upper half of Double Punch's right (robot mode) claw into a bee via-spring-loaded launching and auto-transform mechanism.

This mold was also used to make Sandstorm's unnamed bee drone.
