Guzzle (DOTM)

Guzzle is anAutobotfrom theDark of the Moonportion of themovie continuity family.

Awfully wasp-waisted for someone who eats so much.

Guzzlehas quite an appetite. Back onCybertron,he was capable of consumingEnergonmuch quicker than any of his buddies. Unfortunately, Earth doesn't have such an abundant source of the stuff, so he's forced to find alternative sources of power. Not that a shortage or a new diet has stopped him before, as theDecepticonswho have faced him can definitely attest to.

Part of the fourth wave ofDark of the MoonCyberverseCommander single-pack toys, Autobot Guzzle is a nearScout-class-scale figure that transforms into anM1 Abrams tank.He has "C-313"tampographedon the sides, a reference to theID numberofHardspark,the Japanese toy that shared the same mold as the originalGuzzle.

He comes with two different cannons, which look like a machine gun and a missile launcher, respectively. The missile launcher can be transformed and combined with the machine gun to form a small "Battle Rifle". His hands allow him to grip his weapons as well as interact with various Cyberverse play-sets and accessories. Additionally, in an unintentional design fluke, he is also capable of fairly securely holding5mm postswith his hands, with the wider grip near his fingertips allowing him to hold the post in a dainty-looking manner.

The nature of the turret forming his forearms means that the turret is unable to rotate, making the swivels the actual cannon uses to tilt up and rotate only useful in robot mode.

Notes

• Aside from the familiar blue face and yellow torso, Guzzle takes several design cues from artistNick Roche's rendition of the original Guzzle inLast Stand of the Wreckers,with the biggestspecificdetail being the angled cylinders to each side of his head, a feature seenonlyin that version of the character.
