Title:
Transformers G1 Onslaught Combaticon
Description:
Onslaught (1986)
Team ID number: C5
Takara/GiG ID number: D-64
Accessories: "Sonic stun-gun” rifle, double-barreled turret, chest shield, ramp, Bruticus chest shield, Bruticus head, left & right Bruticus fists, left & right Bruticus foot stands
Originally designed for the aborted Diaclone line Jizai Gattai ("Free Combination”) and then brought over to the Transformers toyline, The Transformers Onslaught transforms into a dark blue and green mobile anti-aircraft truck of made-up origin (though the cab is probably a White Road Boss with sleeper cab), armed with a large double-barreled cannon mounted on the flatbed of his vehicle mode. Like all of the original four Scramble City-style combiner team leaders, he can also assume a base/gun emplacement mode with a ramp that smaller Combaticons can use, which can be connected to both the Autobot city Metroplex (a feature not mentioned in either toy’s instructions, for obvious reasons) and to the Decepticon city Trypticon (a feature only documented in Trypticon’s instructions). As with Motormaster and Silverbolt, Onslaught was originally designed to feature a spring-loaded launching mechanism in base mode that would propel the smaller vehicles off him. Hasbro dropped the feature, perhaps for safety reasons, but it was retained on the Japanese edition of the figure.
In robot mode, Onslaught is armed with a long olive sonic stun-gun and is accessorized by a small chest plate. The gun can store on his backpack in either mode via two rectangular pegs which hold onto his gun sight. Holes in the side of the gun are, probably coincidentally, just the right size to peg in the smaller weapons from the other Combaticons—a feature that would be canonized only for the later Ruination version of the mold.
Onslaught combines with the other Combaticon toys into Bruticus, forming the central body component of the super-robot with the addition of a large silver chest plate and Bruticus’s head. He also comes with Bruticus’s hands and feet.
FUNCTION: COMBATICON LEADER ”The mind is the greatest weapon.”
Believes the key to a mission’s success lies in the perfection of its planning. Prefers devising sinister schemes to actual combat, but a relentless, furious fighter when stirred into action. As a missile trailer, Onslaught is capable of launching 6500-mile range photon missiles, each equivalent to 3000 tons of TNT. Accuracy of missiles is hampered by electromag netic interference. Uses powerful sonic stun gun in robot mode. Joins with fellow Combaticons to form robot ”Bruticus.”
