• Skullcruncher (Beast Battle Masters, 2023)

"You know, you SAY 'Beast Alliance' but I feel like this is more 'Beast You-Wear-Me-As-A-Suit'."

• Optimus Primal & Skullcruncher (Beast Combiners, 2023)
  • Accessories: Tail/blade-weapon, crocodile head/shield

Part of the first wave of "Beast Combiners" two-packs, this version of Skullcruncher transforms from robotic crocodile to a set of armor for compatible figures via partial autotransformation. His tail detaches to become a hand-held weapon and his upper skull detaches to become a shield. His lower jaw houses a cannon, which can be rotated forward in combined robot mode.

He was only available packed in with Optimus Primal, and his armor mode features a new robot-mode head designed as a merger between Primal's head and Skullcruncher's beast styling. However, he is compatible with any other "main" figure in the Beast Combiner assortment, not just Primal.
