hey gang, need some help IDing this bad boy. As the title obviously suggests, I visited a Goodwill (actually to be specific, the one near the Upper Canada Mall in Newmarket) and I happened to find this figure sitting amongst the toys...

Now I'm no expert in every figure ever made, so I have no idea who this guy is XD. I do know that it has a button in the top area that makes the Transforming sound effect when whatever is supported to plug in there does....and its articulation makes Devastator feel like a Revotech.

So does anyone happen to know who he is and maybe know where I can find the parts to complete him?

Looks more like an Energon Overload to me.

Ah yes, Energon not Universe excuse moi. I keep thinking that set is Universe since having them in Energon made no sense.

And don't you know I've been on the lookout for a figure like that? One with a head, of course, but still.

Goodwill scores are one in a million, but they're lovely when it happens.

agreed XDD

I spent about 3 bucks on that

but I had a feel it was Overload....XD looked too much like Energon Ultra Magnus to be a coincidence

still, anyone know someone with at least the mini-con for him? xD Kinda sucks having a body with no head

LOL, on the same night I picked up Recon Ironhide thanks to your tip Malwave, I stopped in at that Goodwill and came upon that Transformer! :p Never bothered to pick it up though, just dropping off some donations for the store and than had to head to Toronto. :D

Congrats on the purchase man, how can you go wrong for $3??!! :D
