Commando (RID)

The Commandos are a Decepticon subgroup from the Robots in Disguise continuity family.

Okay, let's get out there and kick butt! Report any mold degradation to a medic!

The Commandos are an elite group of Decepticon warriors. Formerly Autobot protoforms corrupted by the dark energies of Megatron's spark, they now fight for evil. The five members can also combine to form the behemoth Ruination.

The Commandos are...

• Mega-Octane the cannon-truck and leader
• Ro-Tor the helicopter
• Armorhide the tank
• Rollbar the off-road vehicle
• Movor the Space Shuttle

Notes

• The Commandos are represented by the Decepticon symbol, whereas in the original Japanese series, the Combatrons used a different one that was based upon that of the Generation 2 Autobots. This is because the original Black Convoy toy was a retool of Generation 2 Laser Optimus Prime, which included the symbol moulded onto some of its accessories.
• The Commandos' character models are heavily based on their toys, much more so than the Generation 1 Combaticons.

Foreign names

• Japanese: Combatron (コンバットロン Konbattoron)
