Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.
I suspect they felt redecoing the green alligator into another green alligator was a bit redundant, and suspect that the included Megalligator head is meant to attach to the Legends Skullcruncher toy to give us a full-bodied Megalligator.Seibertron wrote:Really excited about Convoy bat but think it's really odd that they didn't take opportunity to do megatron crocodile in a 2 pack. Seems like easy money to do that.

It's neither perfect nor ideal, but it's what I'm guessing.
In a sense, Convobat is "Convoy changed his form in preparation for aerial combat. Unfurling his elastic bat wings, he can fly completely silently, with hovering capabilities. With Convoy's strategic and commanding abilities, he is easily up to the task of scouting without being spotted by enemies." But he is a clone of Convoy; to introduce the traits of organic lifeforms to the next generation of Transformers, Straxus has performed experiments to create the latest hybrid TFs.
With bat-like wings, he can fly and hover in silence, which made him perfect to train as an assassin robot. He rebels from his chosen career and plots to escape. He thinks that Megaligator, from the same stock of experiments and circumstances as him, is his only friend. To compensate for his lack of firepower, his partner drone Ape-X Arms was created.

I don't get why everyone assumes that a properly colored Megaligator would be redundant. Different shades of green, and no pink? Seems different enough to me.
What I do wonder though, is if they'll repurpose him further as Onyx Primal and whatever the red version was called

I knew all about Onyx. I thought maybe the red one was called "Magma Type" or something. But yeah, nothing special about the name.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Still Convobat.

The bio strikes me as being like a dual-homage to the original Convobat and Onyx Primal.shajaki wrote:I knew all about Onyx. I thought maybe the red one was called "Magma Type" or something.

Whats slightly confusing though, is the character description actually sounds like he's Onyx, what with the assassin bit.

It's Takara/e-HOBBY who might deem a Megalligator Transtector redundant since they seem to have color-matched the Megalligator Headmaster to Legends Skullcruncher's shade of green, if this photoshop is anything to go by:shajaki wrote:I don't get why everyone assumes that a properly colored Megaligator would be redundant.

We can only hope.Seibertron wrote:Hopefully someone does a proper Megalligator at some point. Putting that head on Skullcruncher's body doesn't cut it for me.
