BEAST MACHINES BUZZSAW

This figure is from 2000. He is a Maximal. He did not appear in any comics or cartoons that I know of. He is a techno organic wasp. I like to think that this is Beast wars Buzz saw reformatted as a Maximal.

FUNCTION; Aerial Reconnaissance

Motto " I float like a butterfly but sting like a bee"

Tech Spec; Saved by rattrap from the effects from the conversion freezing virus. Buzzsaw is grateful to the Maximal cause. Impressive aerial abilities and tendency towards gossip make him an excellent reconnaissance scout-Likes to be the buzz about town. Multi function stinger can pierce even the most impenetrable armour and functions as a highly sensitive receiver/transmitter. Slightly proud. Often heard referring to himself as the "Bees Knees" a statement none of his Maximal colleagues can discern.

SPEC; Strength 5, Intelligence 6, Speed 8, Endurance 8, Rank 7, Courage 4, Firepower 5, Skill 9

I really like the way his wasp mode looks. I think that it is weird that his abdomen is on a spring. He would not be able to fly in robot mode as his legs are his wings and they are rather flimsy to hold his weight.  At first glance in robot mode he appears to have no hands but on his right arm he kind of has a hand there but holding the front legs of his wasp mode. Is this a weapon?

You can open the abdomen in robot mode to give him a pincer. I like the way that you can make the sting as long as you want it to be from a sword or a little sting.

His transformation is not really that hard but the first time you have to fiddle around a bit before you figure it out.

Overall I think that he is a good figure and one to collect from the beast machines line.
