Figures were made out of Uriad and Zauru and released in the Bumblebee Vol. 2 Retro Pop Highway set. To avoid confusion, Disclaimer Weekly noted that the cassettes the toys transformed into did not actually play music.[2]
Toys
Studio Series
- Bumblebee Vol. 2 Retro Pop Highway (3-pack, 2018)
- Movie: Bumblebee
- ID number: 20
- Accessories: Left & right blasters
- Studio Series Uriad is a redeco of Dairu, itself a recreated mold[3] of Headmasters Dile. He transforms from cassette into what appears to be an Iguanodon. In cassette mode, he fits into the chest compartment of the original Blaster or Soundwave toys (and their various retooled reincarnations).
- Uriad can also form the upper body of an unnamed humanoid combiner with Zauru... though it seems more likely he's meant to combine with Zauru's Decepticon mold-twin Uruaz. Uriad's weapons become over-shoulder artillery in this mode.
- He was only available in a 2018 exclusive box set, alongside Zauru and a gold redeco of VW Bumblebee.
Notes
- "Uriad" is a backwards spelling of the direct romanization of Dile's original Japanese name "ダイル".
