Arachnid


 * Arachnid is a Predacon from the Beast Wars portion of the Beast Era Continuity family.

An utterly massive creature, Arachnid serves as both a near-unstoppable warrior and a battle base for its fellow Predacons.

It may or may not be sentient. Who knows?

Microverse

 * Arachnid (Microverse playset, 1997)


 * Arachnid was released as part of the Microverse line, Hasbro’s miniatures line meant to compete with Galoob’s “Micro Machines” (before Hasbro’s purchase of Galoob). He (or possibly it) transforms from a large spider into a large treaded base unit with a gun emplacement on a posable arm and gripper claws. Its abdomen opens up to reveal a landing strip and volcano-like hangar for two insectoid mini-vehicles. It came with two micro-figures, Megatron in his gator body and Razorbeast.


 * There are two different varients; some use yellow plastic for the mini-vehicles and other accessories, while later releases use bright green plastic.
