Generation 1

Sup dawg, we heard you like drills, so we gave drills to your drill so you can drill while you drill.

• Rescue Force (Rescue Force, 1992)
  • Accessories: 2 hand-drills

The Rescue Force drill is a redeco of the Breastforce member Drillhorn, transforming into a multi-treaded drill tank. It lacks Drillhorn's partner-beastie Hornbreast (despite what the artwork shows), but comes with a pair of drill-shaped blaster accessories, which can be mounted on his tank mode. It was available only in various European markets at the very end of the Generation 1 series.

The earlier versions of the drill have a blue robot-mode face, but later releases use silver. In addition, the blasters were originally molded in silver as well, but later changed to red. The blue-faced version only came with silver weapons, while the silver-faced version could come with either the silver or red blasters.

Notes

• The drill has no official name, or even an individual identifier of any sort, due to its packaging. Like the concurrently released non-combining versions of the Constructicons, each member of the Rescue Force used the same cardback design, featuring all four members' art up front and directions for all four members on the back. While this is thrifty, it's also crowded, leaving no room whatsoever for anything else.
• The original Breastforce molds used to make the Rescue Force are (largely) self-contained combiners, able to form a super robot. The Rescue Force drill can still become the left leg to a super robot using any combination of the molds. The toy packaging does not make any mention of this, largely because the Rescue Force team lacks both the two arm-robots and the only separate piece of combiner kibble, the super robot helmet.
• The 1992 European catalog that includes the Rescue Force (as well as the Turbomasters, Predators and the non-combining Constructicons) refers to his vehicle form as a "digger".
• As the drill's art is just a retouched version of Drillhorn's with a new weapon, it still shows Hornbreast in its chestplate configuration.
