Toys

Timelines

• Waruder Marauders (BotCon 2015)
  • Accessories: stinger/gun

Storm Rider was repurposed as the King Waruder exosuit.

Storm Rider is a black, blue, gray, and red redeco of the Generations Deluxe Class Waspinator sculpt. He retains the original toy's wing-beating gimmick.

Storm Rider was available in a four-pack at BotCon 2015 that included the three other Waruder mechs (Paralyzer, Parasite, and Mudfighter) as well as the four Waruder troops (Buzzer, Ripper, Thrasher, and Crusher). He can wield any of the four Waruder troops in their weapon modes, but is nominally associated with the Crusher toy.

• Waruder Marauders (BotCon 2015)

Thrasher was repurposed as Daros.

Thrasher is a black and gray redeco of the Generations Waspinator sculpt that originally came with the Legends Class Starscream mold. Thrasher can transform into a wasp, a Waruder pilot with 3mm-compatible hands, and a gun with 5mm handle. He has an autotransformation feature that folds up his wings when his gun barrel is extended.

Thrasher was available in a four-pack at BotCon 2015 that included the four Waruder mechs (Paralyzer, Parasite, Storm Rider and Mudfighter) as well as the three other Waruder troops (Ripper, Buzzer and Crusher).

This mold was also used to make Generations Venin and Movie Advanced Series Buzz Saw, in addition to the Ripper, Buzzer and Crusher toys.

Notes

• In the original Diaclone story, the title is actually Emperor Waruder (帝王ワルダー Teiō Warudā).
• In case you were wondering, the Waruder face shown in the race's insignia is not that of the Emperor Waruder, but Ingram, a Waruder general.
• Thrasher (rather than the red Crusher associated with Storm Rider) was repurposed as Daros due to his black deco resembling one of the original Diaclone Warudaros toy's pilots.
