I need some one in the know to help me out. As usual for me, whenever there is a lull in the current toy line, I scour the Seibertron galleries to find a toy to peek my interest and then I search eBay to pick it up. The mold I discovered this time was RID Towline. I've picked it up as well as MW Hoist and Hubcap. Now in the galleries, there is a fourth version of this mold and I want it! Who is this and what line is it from. Thanks in advance!!

Here is a pick for reference - it's the one on the right with the mace like weapon.

And here is his gallery:

Robot Masters Wrecker Hook Gallery

He was exclusive to Japan and came with an extra mace weapon. Three other figures (Wingstun, Air Hunter and Psycho Orb) had extra weapons that could combine with his into a single megaweapon.

I got an oversize one a few years ago. Same size as a deluxe. Love him.

Toyhell has some of the oversized Robotmasters for sale. I also have os Wingstun who makes a great partner for Acid Storm and a friend is repainting R-Blade to give me a deluxe G2 Hooligan.

Why don't you just buy the Fury of Fearswoop Exclusive? Name may be Fearswoop, but the paint job is aaaaaaaallllllllllllll Hooligan.


Also, big shock here but Jelze took the words and glory right from my mouth... again. :P

Windsweeper, thanks for the info. I was able to pick up Wreckerhook, so know I have all four. Definitely one of my favorite all time little molds. I have them hanging out with my ROTF Rollbar. I'm also a sucker for OS KO's. So I'll be heading over to Toyhell to look for it. Thanks again!

No worries. I keep meaning to buy oversize RM Air Hunter and it's been on Toyhell for months. However, if it takes your fancy go for it. Glad to help. It's a great site for KO's.

Got an oversized Six Builder a while back that's larger than Predaking and the same friend is repainting it in the Energon Devestator colours. It's nearly finished and it looks amazing. What Devestator should always have been.

To answer the Hooligan question and hopefully not sound offensive but Fearswoop just isn't Hooligan. A homage yes, but a different mold and name. R-Blade was a repaint of Hooligan and while what I have is a deluxe size KO, it is based on the Hooligan mold. After getting os Wingstun who greatly compliments Acid Storm, I was glad of the opportunity to get a deluxe size Hoologan as I'm a G2 nut.

Again I hope I didn't come across as an ass in my answer, just giving my reason.
