Actually there was a Transformer that changed from a wolf into a chainsaw! huh Chainclaw was his name. Appeared in the 2023 movie apparently.

So he was just hanging around on Cybertron as a chainsaw but needed to disguise himself to not appear threatening on Earth and picked a giant wolf?

I've never really gotten the hang of the origin story of these guys other than, "We're cool toys."

LOL, and apparently the guy is a hypochondriac to boot: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Chainclaw_(G1)

And... appears that he is a bear, not a wolf, but also, no chainsaw. Just lasers.

I know, it's hilarious! lol

That Chainclaw you linked to is the G1 Clainclaw. You need the 2023 Rise of the Beasts Chainclaw.

(Might actually watch that film if it truly has a robotic wolf that transforms into a chainsaw.)

Just to bust that final rib, here's a picture of the toy version.

So funny! I do have a soft spot for a lot of those Eighties toy franchises, there was a wild creativity alloyed to world building, often with obscure money-saving decisions that led to icons of pop culture.

Quite a slow month ahead it appears.

The Wrath & Glory tie-in with Darktide leaves me cold. I don't think the video game has anything to offer the TTRPG, other than marketing ploy.

Anyone ever played a decent TTRPG that was based on a video game??
