He's part of Transformers Go-Bots, and not Tonka's Go-Bots/Machine Men if that's what you're thinking about. If I were to play a Machine Men Gobot, I would only select a character who's been known to survive the destruction of their universe and crossed over into the Transformers' universe and assumed a Cybertronian identity/persona (e.g. Bug Bite, Crasher/Fractyl, Pathfinder etc.)
