Title:

Motorcycle Drone

Description:
Motorcycle Drone (Basic, 2001)

Accessories: 2 flame-missiles

The Motorcycle Drone was released in the sixth and final retail-release wave of the Beast Machines toyline, as part of the "Battle for the Spark” subline. It transforms into a maroon and silver Cybertronic motorcycle, and although its instructions give it a two-legged robot mode with "feet”, it can also be left partially untransformed to more closely resemble the show depiction.
It features a missile launcher in the left tailpipe/right arm, activated by pressing on the spark crystal. Inserting a missile opens up the panels on the forearm, while firing the missile then makes them snap shut, while the right tailpipe/left arm can just store a missile in it. The Spark crystal doubles as the launcher button and is not a fully translucent dome like most other sparks in the line.
This mold is based directly on the Thrust/cycle drones animation model from the cartoon rather than the Deluxe Thrust toy released the year before. Thus, it was redecoed as Thrust for release in the Japanese Beast Wars Returns line several years later.
