Title:
Iguanas Transmetal
Description:
Iguanus (Deluxe Transmetal 2, 1999)
Accessories: Missile
One of the few non-show Beast Wars characters to get a second new mold, Iguanus transforms into a bio-mechanical frill-necked lizard. His beast mode head hides a spring-loaded missile launcher that also pops up his frill-plates when activated. The missile is held in his hands in robot mode like a club, for once Iguanus is transformed, his missile launcher is inaccessible. His spark crystal is located in his right pectoral in robot mode, concealed under a flip-up panel. His beast mode frill is the only chromed feature of the toy, which appears to be more resistant to flaking than most of the Transmetal 2 line.Bizarrely, some Iguanus figures have been misassembled, as they feature a Beast Machines Maximal spark crystal instead of the Beast Wars Predacons one. Just how this happened is uncertain.Like the other Transmetal 2 Deluxes which did not appear in the cartoon, Iguanus was not released in Asian markets. This toy was sold in Japan as an "import” with a Japanese sticker exclusive to Toys"R"Us. This mold was later used to make Universe Reptilion.
