Title:
Offroad Menasor Stunticon 5/5
Description:
Decepticon Offroad (Deluxe Class, 2015)
5 of 5: Menasor
Accessories: Axe, hand/foot/gun/engine
Known designers: John Warden (Hasbro)
Part of the second wave of Combiner Wars Deluxe class toys, Offroad transforms from a 4x4 double-cab pickup truck to robot and back! As a Combiner Wars Deluxe figure he can form either an arm or leg on any Voyager Class toys from the same subline or any Unite Warriors figure or into one of Legends Godbomber’s legs but is, of course, intended to be combined with Motormaster, Breakdown, Dragstrip, Dead End, and Blackjack to create Menasor. Offroad is also associated with Wreckage. He includes a 5 mm handle axe weapon, and a larger accessory that can form a hand or foot in limb mode, a gun for robot mode, and can be mounted on a tab in the vehicle mode’s truck bed to form a giant engine block. While the front hood/windshields are needed to be folded as kneecaps for his leg mode, the piece also had a tendency to dislodge if he collides to Optimus Prime/Motormaster’s (or and of Hot Spot’s redecoes/retools) protruding foot while the legs are being swiveled in his standing position, unless the leg joints are bent down to lessen the problem.
An earlier prototype of Offroad depicted in official Hasbro stock photos featured a 5 mm peg hole on the truck bed. This was replaced by the aforementioned tab for release.
In the U.S., Hasbro’s Asian markets, and Australia, Offroad is packed in with a variant cover edition of IDW’s Robots in Disguise #14, labelled in its indicia as Combiner Wars #6. In other regions (mainly Canada and Latin America, since Offroad’s wave was never officially distributed in Europe), he instead includes a collector card featuring his packaging art.
As a part of the first and second wave promotion in Hasbro’s Asian markets, a free sticker sheet for the Aerialbots and Stunticons was given out when purchasing any four Deluxe Class toys from those waves. As such, Offroad was given Generation 1 toy-esque stickers for the owner to apply if they wanted.
He was redecoed to create the Transformers Collectors’ Club-exclusive Grabuge and Unite Warriors Zombie War Breakdown, and retooled to create First Aid, Ironhide, and Trailbreaker. This mold also served as the basis for the non-toy Shattered Glass versions of Checkpoint and the Autotroopers.
