X-Transbots
Wild Child/Explorer is an homage to the Decepticon Bad Boy. He turns from a robot to a Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II jet. From the numbers on his box we can assume he is very fast, brave and skilled, but not very strong. Wild Child is an arrogant and violent thug who serves saboteur and spy with a dimensional exploration team. He is supervised by "Guardian Treds".
Development
Wild Child/Explorer appears in promotional pictures for the X-Transbots Destroyer set. Perhaps they are allies?
