Spike Stone

Spike Stone is a type of Rockasaur, a life-form native to the planet Quartex.

They are very territorial and a threat to both good and evil Rock Lords.

Fiction

Rock Lords packaging

Boulder and Granite quickly realised that the purple rock they were looking at wasn't a hill as it transformed into Spike Stone. Spike Stone mini-comic

GoBots Magazine comic

Magmar, Brimstone, Tombstone, Slimestone, Stoneheart and their Narlies had Boulder, Marbles, Granite, Crackpot and Pulver-Eyes trapped on the edge of a cliff that they couldn't just roll off as rocks. Nuggit then arrived with a Spike Stone and a pair of Terra-Rocs, providing a distraction for Boulder and chums to turn into rocks and knock them over. Update from Quartex

Toys

Rock Lords

Rockasaurs

• Spike Stone (1986)
  • Accessories: none

Spike Stone was released in the Rockasaurs assortment of Rock Lords by Tonka and converts from dinosaur-style monster to rock. The beast mode's legs can move, and the toy features some good moulded detail - notably having teeth, and sculpted bones in the areas exposed by the transformation. Like all 1986 Rock Lords toys, the reverse of Spike Stone's box featured a three-frame mini-comic and a Collector Card, while a copy of "Powerful Living Rocks Face a Deadly New Peril".

• The figure was released in Japan as Rockdon, one of the Rock Robo in the Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos toyline, with no significant changes; it is unclear which was the original release.

Rockasaurs

• Spike Stone (Rocksaur, 1986)
  • Accessories: none

In Europe, Rock Lords was a subline of Robo Machine. Spike Stone was issued by Bandai in 1986 with no significant changes. The packaging identified its' monster mode as a Styracosaurus, which even allowing for the strides made in science since the mid-1980s is a reach.

Notes

• One of the Rockasaurs seen in GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords might be modelled on Spike Stone, though it's hard to tell.
