While stranded in the multiversal hub of Axiom Nexus, Cy-Kill worked to rebuild his power base with new Renegades. Heart Attack was part of a group of Predacons camped out in the Heap that confronted Cy-Kill during his exploits. After Cy-Kill defeated their leader Fright Face in single combat, the Predacons became loyal members of his Renegade force. Cy-Kill even used his old Puzzler technology to give the Predacons a combiner form as Monsterous. Heart Attack and the others traveled with Cy-Kill back to his home reality when he abandoned Axiom Nexus.

As Monsterous, Heart Attack and his team gleefully tore through the surprised Courageous before turning on the Command Centers.

Monsterous[edit | edit source]

  • Heart Attack (GoBots, 1986)
    • Giant Monsterous Body
    • Accessories: none
Heart Attack was released by Tonka in the third series of GoBots, and converts from robot to flying monster jet thing in 4 steps. The toy shares a mould with Groguillon from the Devil Satan 6 set in Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos toyline, with a different teal primary colour scheme; it is unclear which was the original release. Heart Attack combines with his team-mates Fright Face, South Claw, Weird Wing, Fangs and Gore Jaw to form Monsterous; Heart Attack forms the lower torso. Individually, he has articulation at the shoulders, hips and knees. His arms are permanently stuck bent at the elbow with his claws facing upwards and can only move parallel to the body, much like those of team-mate Fright Face. And he has a heart for a face. Awww. Like the rest of the Monsterous team, the rear of his card featured a character biography, while the instructions were printed on a separate leaflet.
  • Heart Attack was made available during the third series as part of the Monsterous assortment (#7301) and remained available for the rest of the line's life on toy shelves.
