Odd Ball was a member of the Instigation Mini-Con Team along with Breez and Pow Wow. Hailing from an Aurex universal stream, the trio were marooned in the Offworlder section of Axiom Nexus. When Cy-Kill went recruiting for the Renegades, the Mini-Cons eagerly signed up for his cause. Cy-Kill had them outfitted with traditional GoBot features such as hand-blasters and flight systems before returning to the Gargent Cluster. Odd Ball's unpredictable nature led Cy-Kill to consider pairing him with the slow but dependable Block Head when they ultimately returned home.

Special Edition[edit | edit source]
- Odd Ball (GoBots, 1986)
- Renegade Robot Monster
- Accessories: none
- Odd Ball was one of the few GoBots toys designed by Tonka and converts from robot to space ship in 5 steps. The toy was available at Wendy's restaurants, being available for 99¢ with any other purchase. The figure was never released outside of North America. Odd Ball has articulation at the shoulders, and due to being a Monster GoBot gets away with the weird restrictions of the toys a lot better than some of his fellow premiums. He is also one of the few GoBots toys with a turning head. A character biography was printed on the reverse of his card.
- Odd Ball's card bore the code 7205. Examples dated 1985 and not bearing Wendy's branding have appeared; how these were distributed is as yet unknown; they might even just be a first run of Wendy's figures.
