Title:
Slitherfang - Core Class
Description:
Slitherfang (Battle Master, 2020)
.Hasbro ID number: WFC-E13
.Takara Tomy ID
number: ER EX-06 .Takara Tomy release date: August 29, 2020 Accessories: Impact "Fire Blast effect"
Part of the second wave of Earthrise Battle
Masters, Slitherfang transforms from snake mode to a shield that can be held by any C.O.M.B.A.T. System-compatible figure. Their alt mode also features an A.I.R. Lock System connector on each end, allowing them to connect with any other toy with compatible connectors, forming roadways and ramps. Or a longer snake, if you’re into that. They have a pair of small 3 mm pegs on them to mount "Fire Blast effect” add-ons to simulate getting pelted with blaster-fire.
The instructions contain a second set of steps demonstrating how to transform Slitherfang from shield to connector piece. It’s ultimately rather superfluous; all it amounts to is moving the peg at the tip of the figure’s tail. It can be accomplished by rotating the piece via a small knob on the opposite end of the piece, without having to remove the whole tail assembly from its place in the shield mode.
Like all Earthrise releases, the cardboard back of Slitherfang’s package includes a cut-out collectible piece of a larger star map.
Slitherfang was not part of Takara Tomy’s regular-retail Earthrise toyline, instead being relegated to a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive... alongside about half of the Hasbro line’s regular retail product.
This mold was redecoed in non-translucent red into Fangtron.
