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.

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


Notes

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.
