Title:
Dark Scream Darkscream With Slapper And Gas Skunk
Description:
Dark Scream / Gas Skunk / Slapper (Mega Class 3-pack, 2001)
Accessories: Sword
For his Hasbro Robots in Disguise release, Dark Scream was only available in a Mega-sized 3-pack with his fellow stooges Gas Skunk and Slapper. This set was part of the first wave of Robots in Disguise Megas.
Dark Scream has a number of small differences from Car Robots Guildo. His gray plastic has been replaced with shinier silver-colored plastic, his chrome is a lighter champagne-gold rather than yellow-gold, and his purple paint is much more violet than the reddish-purple of the Takara release.

According to the Car Robots toy catalog, Dark Scream, Gas Skunk and Slapper make up a subgroup known as the "3 Metal Beast Brothers” (メタルビースト３兄弟 Metaru Bīsuto 3 Kyōdai). Apparently, Takara’s intent was to have them parallel the "3 Car Robo Brothers” (as Prowl, Side Burn, and X-Brawn were called in Japan), but this subgroup name was never used in the show’s Japanese version, nor was any familial relationship implied between the three.
A pre-production version of Dark Scream (well, Guildo) with brighter gold chrome appeared in the original Car Robots toy catalog.
On the (now defunct) Fox Kids website was a bio for Slapper that referred to his, Dark Scream’s, and Gas Skunk’s three-member team as the "Predacon Field Squadron”. This bio (like the others from that site) was derived from a longer bio for Slapper given in the production bible for the Robots in Disguise English dub. A similar bio for Dark Scream featured in the bible identified him as the field squadron’s second member.However, this team name was never used in the show itself.
Dark Scream was noted to have a Sciuridon beast mode in Beast Wars: Uprising.
