Notes[edit | edit source]
- Wrestler Robo was not seen to transform in any of his animated appearances.
- Like the other Martial Arts Robo figures, Wrestler Robo was initially conceived as a conventionally-transforming figure before the decision was made to totally rework the toys into poseable figures with shells. This version even seems to have got as far as a physical prototype before the change was made. At this stage his alternate mode was a futuristic tank.
