• Bogu (Arms Micron W, 7-28-2012)
  • ID number: AMW-02
  • Energon Crystal: AP Mad

Bogu transforms from a robot bird into a cleaver. He comes as an unassembled, unpainted "kit" on sprues, with customer-applied foil stickers for deco. He has multiple 5mm posts and holes as part of the Arms Micron play pattern, allowing him to be combined with other Mini-Cons to form bigger and more ridiculous weapons. However, he is specially designed to form the middle-blade of the "Super Combo Weapon" Dark Matter Caliber with Gabu and Dai.

Notes

• The name "Bogu" is derived from the katakana spelling of "hawk", ホーク (hōku), with consonant-changing accents added to change "ho" to "bo" and "ku" to "gu", as well as dropping the vowel-extender.
• Gabu, Bogu and Dai were available earlier than the rest of the AMW series, but only at the Next Generation World Hobby Fair Summer '12 in Fukuoka, Japan, on June 30 and July 1. Purchasing all three also granted the buyer a free Firebolt Clear Yellow Version.
• The July edition of the KoroKoro comic gives him the name "Baru".
