Go!

• Budora (Voyager, 8-31-13)
  • Japanese ID number: G08
  • Accessories: Grapple launcher, 2 shoulder weapons

Budora was repurposed as Thunderlane.

Part of the fourth wave of Go! toys, Budora is a redeco and retool of Prime: Beast Hunters Grimwing, with new beast and robot mode heads. He transforms into an ursagryph, and comes with a bird-headed grapple launcher which can launch the claw missile in its mouth via pressure-launch, with the missile being tied to the launcher with a length of string. Both the launcher and his missile can mount/be held by Budora via 5mm post, with Budora featuring ports on his hands, forearms, and back. Additionally, the U-shaped parts on his shoulders are separate pieces that can be pulled out to be used as weapons held via their 5mm handles, a feature which is actually called out in the instructions for this version of the mold, unlike other versions.

Budora's instructions show a differently tooled set of wings than what is on the production figure, where the figure in the instructions features more dramatic feather lengths, and transitions between each are more dramatic.

The original version of this mold was used to make Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising Darksteel.
