You know that crossed my mind when I first saw him, I think it's the white shoulder stripe that makes me think of IDW.View attachment 18339
I dunno. This guy is giving IDW RiD arc Prime vibes. Which I am HERE for.
This thing is so good, I’m considering it my definitive Generations Prime update to G1. I don’t think I’ve felt this way about a Prime toy since Universe Prime came out, but obviously that thing hasn’t aged well, at least for me. This guy tho… wrapping the door panels around the forearms just does it for me.

That’s what I did with my (second) Menasor. Cus why not!
“Hello! My name is Magneous, I’m made out of rocks…”
“Hello, my name is Bouldercrash, and I am also made out of rocks.”
The various robuts I got from my wife for Christmas. Androform Base!
...is that the ship they retooled into the Beast Wars II ship?
It seems that the base and related other playsets, have a loose relationship with TFs and Gobots perhaps?

Look what just came today from Takara Tomy...
My girlfriend ordered it, whilst I paid for it. She also bought me a wallet and two Japanese Starwars figures for Chrimbo, bless her.
I'm surprised (and a little disappointed) that Hasbro didn't include the "Deathtailer" gun (with an ability to connect to the flail)...
Also, there's some (fan-mode) weapon storage for his weapons in beast-mode.

It is! It started out life as a third party toy by Blue Box, more of a "works with leading brands" sort of deal, but the retooled version was actually used officially by Takara in their Beast Wars II toyline.
Yep, that's the one! I thought I recognized it.
Discovered it somewhat recently, and I'd love to get the BWII version.
I saw them for sale in Japan when they came out and they shelf-warmed alongside the other "faux-KO" official BW2/Neo Merch (Tako Tank, Maximal blaster, The Niagara base, etc). I passed up on all of those, as they all looked a bit cheap and naff at the time.
I only recently discovered the existence of Andro Base myself, after someone here posted a picture of one (Haywire maybe? don't recall), but my wife found one at a local garage sale and bought it figuring it for a Gobots base of some kind, which does check out as it really does look like the forbidden love-child of the Guardian Command Center and Thruster.
An old photo, but we have 2 Thrusters, Trypticon, the Diarobo Gas Station base, 2 Command Centers, a Machine Robo Battle Base (Japan version), a Space Hawk, Andro Base, Omega Supreme, and Machine Robo Rescue Wing Liner. Wish I had gotten the other big MRR sets, and would love to find an Australian Battle Base and the BWII ship, but I can still put together a pretty fair TF city. (Need to set up a new one with Core Prime's Combat Deck added in, though)
TIL
Never knew this was a thing. Looking at it, it reminds me a LOT of a Beast Wars equivalent of a Citybot I came up with long, long ago... I should see if I can draw it or something.
Pretty sure that's the picture I'm remembering!
You've heard of Plastic Crack? Well, this is Thundercrack!
