Predacon Field Squadron

The Predacon Field Squadron ground force are specialized for combat in water, air and on land, and they cannot cut it in any of them. They try their best, but their most admirable quality is that they are good for a laugh.<ref>As stated in their R2 DVD bio</ref> Each member of the team fires the Right, Left, and Center Lasers to combine into one mighty attack.

For their Hasbro releases, the members of the Predacon Field Squadron were released in a Mega-level pricepoint box all together.

Notes

• The name "Predacon Field Squadron" was never used in the Robots in Disguise cartoon itself. The name originates from bios provided for Gas Skunk, Dark Scream, and Slapper in the English dub's production bible, in which Dark Scream was said to be the group's second member and Slapper its third member (making Gas Skunk the group's unspoken first member). However, the name was written in full lowercase, as if it wasn't meant to be a proper name.<ref>Robots in Disguise Series Bible, at TFRaw</ref> Publicly, the name first appeared on the (now defunct) Fox Kids website in a bio for Slapper that was (like the others from that site) derived from the production bible's longer bio. It was this Fox Kids bio that uppercased the name to make it more proper.<ref>Robots in Disguise character bios on FoxKids.com (archived)</ref>

Foreign names

• Japanese: Metal Beast 3 Kyōdai (メタルビースト３兄弟, "3 Metal Beast Brothers")<ref>According to the Car Robots toy catalog, Guildo, Gooshar, and Gaskunk make up a parallel group to the "3 Car Robo Brothers" (as Mach Alert, Speedbreaker, and Wildride were called in Japan), but this subgroup name is likewise never used in the cartoon, nor is any familial relationship implied between the three.</ref>
