I think this one would a hard fought battle. Strength is the key here.

Which rhino wins?

Rhinox, hands down. Smarter, probably stronger, and don't forget those 2 big guns.

rhinox is a little stronger, alot smarter and has a lot higher firepower.

I wouldn't say Rhinox wins that easily.

Ramhorn is a lot stronger than you guys give him credit for; he's a tough 'Bot overall. Take a gander at his abilities:

Abilities: In rhinoceros mode, Ramhorn's charge is virtually unstoppable. He can knock a train off its tracks or upend an 18-wheeler with one blow. His horn can rip through an 18 inch-thick tempered steel wall. His armor is resistant to extreme heat and cold. and most artillery fire. In cassette mode, he can release a powerful vibration that can destroy any equipment into which he's inserted.

If Ramhorn managed to charge Rhinox, then I think the BW rhino would be too damaged to continue. The force of the impact would be considerable, most definitely.

While Rhinox's chain guns are powerful, I think Ramhorn's armour would be able to resist them to a certain point.

But you guys have my vote. To me, the BW rhino's intelligence gives him the edge, and the victory.

I'm lookin at the tech specs on the toys for reference. rhinox has a 9 str and ramhorn has 8. they are matched in end and speed. rhinox has over double the firepower of ramhorn. Logically rhinox could do the same to ramhorn

Don't mind me, N_V.

I always like to give the underdog a fighting chance. I usually do this kind of thing to make the battle more interesting; to see if anyone would reconsider a one-sided fight once they've taken my thoughts and ideas into account. I'm playing the devil's advocate, but in a reasonable way.

Rhinox, but not easily

If this happens on BW Earth, Ramhorn loses due to excessive energon radiation.

In a safer environment, it's a more even fight. Rhinox's 'flesh' would be quite vulnerable. Rhinox's gun is very powerful. So are Ramhorn's missiles. Ramhorn has a special move. He can shrink down to cassette form and go inside Rhinox. He can vibrate and destroy Rhinox from within. (It's in the tech specs although it sounds very porny.) Rhinox needs to watch his back!

If he can plan this out, Ramhorn will lie in wait and try to do the special move. However, I don't think he's patient or stealthy enough. He'll prefer a direct assault. The two fighters are evenly matched so it's hard to predict a winner. I'm guessing Ramhorn because Rhinox's organic component would be destroyed in a missile attack. Rhinox would be in agony. Ramhorn would take the opportunity to defeat Rhinox.
