Strong Hippo (ストロングヒッポ Sutoronguhippo) is one of the many Beastformers who joined White Leo's resistance forces as Galvatron's Decepticons began to conquer the formerly-peaceful planet Beast with their army of cold-blooded insurgents. His role in the Autobot-allied Beastformer forces is amphibious transportation. He holds the rank of King of Gamborudia, over Emperor Scoutmouse.

Toys

Beastformers

• Strong Hippo (Beastformer, 1987)
  • Beast ID number: 32
  • Accessories: "Aqua Hippo" weapon

Part of the second series of Beastformers, Strong Hippo is an anthropomorphic hippopotamus in blue high-tech armor. He comes with his "Aqua Hippo" (アクアヒッポ) hatchet.

His rubsign reveals one of three symbols; Fire, Water or Wood. The initial release has the symbol as a black outline against "mood ring" style color-changing backdrop. He was re-released in series three, in a new box lacking the Transformers brand marks; this release gives him a rubsign that reveals a full-color symbol on a black backdrop.

Notes

• The Hasbro release of this toy was similarly (eventually) available with both styles of rubsign.
