Bot a Day: Daily Drawings

This black and white illustration doesn't do the intense 90s paintjob of Thundercracker justice. This is his Action Master Exo-Suit incarnation, meaning his robot mode is a poseable action figure that doesn't transform. But, he comes bundled with a delta-winged solo mission plane, which he rides like a kid on a coin-operated ride at the supermarket. The plane turns into his exo armor, illustrated here. He was available in European markets in 1991. 

From the expanded Action Master line that kept Generation One going an extra year in Europe is Slicer, Decepticon massive assault specialist. Slicer is a redeco of a Wheeljack Action Master figure, and as an Action Master Exo-Suit toy, came with a 4WD assault vehicle that turns into his battle armor. Slicer was available in European markets in 1991. 

From Europe's extended Generation One line comes Circuit, Autobot messenger. He's part of the Action Master subset so he doesn't transform himself, but comes with a Formula 1 racer that he can fit in and drive that turns into an exo suit that he fits in. He was released in European markets in 1991. This drawing is from 2019. 

Rumbler is from the European continuation of the Generation One line through additional Action Masters. He was part of the Action Master Exo-Suit assortment. While Rumbler didn't transform (his body details suggest he was a jet in past life), his 4WD All Terrain Vehicle he drove did, and could form a suit of exo-armor that he'd fit within. Rumbler was released in European markets in 1991.
