Killerpunch is the final regular Destron release in the Beast Wars Neo range. He's a remold of Guiledart - the first release. He's available by himself or paired opposite Survive - a grey Polar Claw Repaint - in a VS pack. He's probably the hardest of the regular Neo toys to obtain.
I'm told Killerpunch is a Styracosaur. The major change from Guiledart in beast mode is the head is replaced with a new one - a horn at the front, and a horned frill at the rear. Gone is the rolling back the eyes gimmick. The beast is coloured a pale purple/lilac.
Under the head is a trigger that shoots the entire head off revealing a slim robot beast head underneath. This robot head can open his jaw upwards. The panels on the side of the beast still open - doing this and removing the head forms Killerpunch's "dead" trap mode. The tail doesn't pull halfway out for some more exposed gore on this version.
TF: Remove the beast head and the tail. Fold the front legs up so they're pointing skywards. Fold the back of the back legs down and flip out the feet and heel spurs. Pull the head forward. Fold the side panels down, and pull the middle of the underside of the beast apart. Pull the head down further, and pull the back panel along with the arm underneath it up. Pull the tail section up, fold the rear legs down behind the beast and bring them together at the hips to form the robot's legs. Turn the side panels round so the flaps are pointing down (beast) or forward (robot). Twist the robot's upper body round 90 degrees so it is facing forward. Pull the tail up as far as you can and fold the side halves round it. The head is on his right arm, raise that above the robot's head, spin 180 degrees at the bicep joint, straighten the arm, lower the shoulder joint to the side and bring the arm into position. Fold the left arm down from under the beast's back which forms a massive piece of shoulder armour. Fold the guns out from the end of the feet on the shoulder armour. Take the tail you removed and hold as the robot's weapon. The beast head can be held in the robot's hand as a shield - you'll need to put the weapon back in the tail - or mounted on the robot's claw hand formed from the cyber beast head or mounted on the robot's back.
The robot reveals plenty of red on the exposed robot pieces and a new helmet with lots of ridges and a bar over the front between mouth and eyes. Gone are the missiles from Guiledart, but if you have any of his to hand they'll fit into the launcher on Killerpunch's cyborg beast head.
Worthy remold. Quite hard to find. There's no US or repainted version availible sadly. There should be.
