Santon

Santon is a Maximal from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

El Santon, Elefante de Plata, contra los Destrongers.

Santon (サントン) is one of Cybertron's finest and most accomplished medics. 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.

This figure is a repaint of Beast Wars Ironhide, transforming into an African elephant.

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.
