Spot the Mingo! ... oh, there he is.

Mingo Kid (ミンゴーキッド Mingōkiddo), also known as Flan (フラン Furan), is one of the Autobot-allied Beastformers fighting a war on the planet Beast. His role in the Autobot Beastformer forces is commander of the Air Combat Unit. He also holds the rank of Emperor of Hilles, the island where he was born, under King Būpink. Having grown in up the home of an artist, Mingo Kid has mastered many forms of art, including painting, sculpturing and expressive dance, and his avant-garde creations are known across all of Beast. His Performancer MVP Weapon lets him disassemble anything into small, bead-like objects that he can then rebuild into either the original object or something else entirely.

Beastformers

  • Mingo Kid (Beastformer, 1987)
Beast ID number: 73
    • Accessories: "Performancer" spear
Mingo Kid is an anthropomorphic flamingo with dark blue robotic armor. He came with his "Performancer" (パフォーマンサー) spear. He has one of three rubsigns on his chest, revealing the elemental power of fire, water, or wood.
  • Burst Sun Special Set (Multi-pack, 1987)
The first Beastformers multipack (still using the Transformers logo and factions) contained nine normal figures, then one of two special editions of the faction leaders, either a clear-plastic version of Alligatron, or White Leo with the "Burstsun" rubsign. The box contained no windows, so you didn't know which of the leaders you got until you opened it up.
The other nine standard Beastformers in the set were Black Jaguar, Būpink, Crowmax, Dog Hunter, Dreameater, Earthhog, Mingo Kid, Muskhorn, and Slo.
