Title:
Cheetor Robot Mode
Description:
Cheetor (Cybertron Heroes, 2007)
Accessories: 2 scimitars, display stand
Part of the sixth wave of Titanium Series Cybertron Heroes, Cheetor is based heavily on the design of Cheetor seen in the Beast Machines cartoon, albeit with some differences, notably much thicker limbs, making him far more stable in robot mode. His twin scimitars can peg onto his hips for storage and are made of softer, rubbery plastic. His die-cast metal is limited to his shoulders, torso, and thighs.
Care must be taken when transforming Cheetor into beast mode. His robot head must be pushed back into his beast mode’s neck until it clicks. Failure to do so will cause his robot mode head to get stuck inside the chest after the cheetah mode’s neck is pushed into it, and may require disassembling the torso to get it out again.
This figure is the first transforming toy commemorating the Beast Machines story, designs, and faction symbols. According to Titanium Series concept designer Don Figueroa, making Titanium Cheetor use the BM body was his idea. It seems he was told simply to make "Cheetor”, but his Hasbro supervisors never specified which Cheetor to make. Aaron Archer corroborated this, saying Hasbro had not meant to produce a Beast Machines figure: they had simply put Cheetor’s name on a list, and the toy ended up being, as Archer put it, "the wrong one”.
Like most Titanium Series Cybertron Heroes, Cheetor includes a display stand.
