This article is about the Playskool Go-Bot. For the prominent Beast Wars character, see Tigatron.
Tigertron is a Playskool Go-Bot in the Go-Bots continuity.
If I change my name, can I get a Go-Shield?

Tigertron's speed and agility are unmatched when in tiger form. Unfortunately, his inexperience keeps him from realizing his full potential.


Pre-release name: Mechanicat

  • Tigertron (Mission: Earth, 2003)
Tigertron is an orange, white, and light-blue tiger, ever-so-slightly remolded from Cheetor (the molded-in cheetah spots on his head having been removed). Turning his left arm activates his torso transformation, changing his head from beast to robot.
This mold was also used to make Beast-Bot II, Chuck, and Preditron, and was recolored as George in Japan.



Trivia

Crouching tiger, hidden...uh, tiger.
  • The first image of Tigertron that made it to the public was, rather strangely, in a cross-sell on which he was not even listed! Someone apparently forgot to crop him out of the image of Hauler-Bot.
