Noot noot!

Rockhopper is somehow related to the Transformers, being able to transform but preferring to stay in his penguin mode. He has the capability to secrete an anti-corrosive and anti-erosive oil that allows him to survive in harsh wintery conditions.

  • Break (Basic, 1999)
    • Japanese ID number: C-32
    • Accessories: Missile
Break was repurposed as Rockhopper.
Break transforms into an emperor penguin, and is probably the ultimate shellformer; you can remove every piece of penguin from him (the parts on his arms require a screwdriver, admittedly) and still have a fully-functional, four-limbed robot. He has a spring-loaded missile launcher attached to his right arm. He also has a third (highly questionable) "Buster Mode" cannon-form that can be held by larger Transformers, though it tends to fall apart due to mere gravity. Some fans have affectionately called this the "super-mega-poop-attack!", as the missile fires from the penguin's rear.
