Andalite

Andalites are aliens from the Animorphs continuity.

The artist got infested before he got around to coloring my tail. :(

The Andalites are an organic alien species. They appear to be highly advanced technologically, most notable amongst their scientific achievements is their "morphing" technology. Said technology allows them to take up the forms of other organics by acquiring their genetic material through touch. It can also be used to bestow upon humans the same ability, making them become Animorphs, allies to the Andalites in the war against the Yeerks. Little else is known about the Andalite species, though it is implied that it is difficult for a Yeerk to infest an Andalite, as there is only one known infested Andalite having ever been known to exist.

Known Andalites include:

• Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill
• Prince Elfangor
• War Prince Alloran-Semitur-Corrass, Visser Three's host body

Toys

• Animorphs (1999)
  • Ax/Scorpion (Mega)
  • Ax/Panther (Deluxe)
  • Visser Three/Inferno Creature (Mega)
  • Visser Three/Hork-Bajir/Inferno Creature (Ultra)

Notes

• Judging from the eye stalks on the Mutant Razor Claw's robot head, his toy was originally designed as an Andalite for the Animorphs line before was canceled.
• As can be seen from packaging art and toys, Andalites would seem like they came in three colors: yellow, red and blue. However, according to the novels, Andalite males can be colored various shades of blue, and females various shades of purple, sometimes with silver or even pink highlights on their fur.
