Have you seen me?

This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.

Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill (Ax for short) is an Animorph. He's an alien!

Ax's known animal forms include a scorpion, a human, and a panther.

Toys

Animorphs

One of five scorpion molds not named Scorponok.
  • Ax/Scorpion (Mega, 1999)
    • Accessories: Missile
Ax transforms from an Andalite (sort of an alien centaur-thing) into a scorpion. In scorpion mode his tail fires missiles. Unlike the human Animorph toys, it has no transitional third mode.


File:Axpanther.jpg
  • Ax/Panther (Deluxe, 1999)
    • Accessories: Left paw, right paw
Ax's second retail toy is a retooling of Jake/Tiger, transforming from a funny-looking human into a panther, as well as a transitional third mode combining features from both. His panther mode front claws are separate pieces that attach like gloves. Although this toy has no alien mode, the transitional mode's head has features that suggest an Andalite-to-panther transition rather than a human-to-panther transition.


Notes

PLEASE KILL ME NOW. D:
  • Ax/Panther is the only toy in the Animorphs toy line that is not a new mold.
  • Ax/Panther does not make sense within the context of the Animorphs series itself; morphing to any creature must be done when in one's original form, so he would have to go from human back to Andalite before he could become a panther. The Andalite-like features in his transition mode may have been intended to compensate for this.
  • The packaging art for Ax's scorpion mold is a hilariously toy-accurate depiction of the figure's beast mode, resembling more of a mish-mash of Andalite parts then an actual scorpion... or anything else for that matter.
