Battle Unicorn
- Battle Unicorn is a Maximal in the Beast Machines portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Certain Vehicon Generals doubt the existence of a mysterious technorganic unicorn which doesn't show up on radar, moves without sound, appears and disappears like magic, and leaves only scrambled indecipherable sensor logs in his wake. Those that have fought Battle Unicorn, however, quickly learn that his fanciful alternate mode and prosaic designation disguise a powerful warrior, as intelligent and stealthy as he is skilled with his battle axe should a combatant actually manage to engage him. His stealth armor, sound dampers, sensor scrambling hoof-stomps, and unique teleportation abilities combine to make this a rare occurrence, and make Battle Unicorn an excellent scout.

- Battle Unicorn (Basic, 2001)
- Battle Unicorn transforms into a technorganic unicorn. A dial on his beast mode's left shoulder activates an "attack" gimmick, moving his head up and down.
- Released at the very end of the Beast Machines line, Battle Unicorn had a very short "shelf life", leading to many fans never seeing him on the shelf at all. However, Hasbro worked out a deal with online toy store Big Bad Toy Store, selling them solid cases of the figure. (Which are still kind of lingering in BBTS' warehouse to this day.)
- This mold was later redecoed to make Magna Stampede.
