The three former Decepticon Headmaster Juniors, along with Clouder, accompanied the Autobots to the Grand Canyon on a mission to stop the composite Devil Z/BlackZarak entity. During the battle, however, all four of them were struck with a blast of the villain's Devil Power, and were shocked to find their Master-Braces had disappeared from their wrists. Devil Z had, in fact, separated them from their transtectors and brought the robot bodies to life as true super-robot lifeforms, all four of which rejoined the Decepticon side. Autobots! Desperate Attack!! After God Ginrai destroyed Devil Z, all the other Godmasters and Headmaster Juniors were also separated from their transtectors. Bullhorn's living transtector departed Earth with all the other Deception transtectors, and was pursued by the Autobots' transtectors to carry on the Transformers' war in space.

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers
- Bullhorn (Headmaster Junior Monster, 1988)
- ID number: D-302
- Accessories: Transtector, "small laser," "laser cannon"
- Released in the fourth year of Takara's Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers line under the Super-God Masterforce banner, Bullhorn is identical to the Hasbro-release Kreb; a small armored humanoid that transforms into a robot head compatible with any Headmaster body.
- He comes with his Headmaster Transtector, which is identical to the Hasbro-release Horri-Bull, transforming into... well, it's identified as a "buffalo", although it really looks like a "terror dog" from the first Ghostbusters movie. The Bullhorn Headmaster figure fits in a cockpit in the Transtector's back in its beast mode. The creature's tail disconnects and becomes a double-barrelled laser for robot mode.
- Like all Headmaster toys, Bullhorn's robot mode features a spring-loaded mini-Tech-Spec-meter in its chest, which gives readings for Speed, Strength, and Intelligence (although he and the other Decepticon Junior molds are unique in that their meters are not covered by flip-down panels). The tumblers are activated when Bullhorn (or any other Headmaster unit) is plugged into the neck socket. Bullhorn has his robot-mode face plainly visible on his back because, as a smaller Headmaster toy, he lacks the flip-down panel that covers the face featured on larger Headmasters.
