RID 2001 Prowl (Supermode)

Series: Robots in Disguise
Allegiance: Autobot
Categories: Deluxe
Year: 2002

You can run but you can't hide!
Prowl added a new Spark engine to his configuration to improve his mobility and searching ability. With high-capacity radars on both his shoulders, he can instantly find enemies hiding in a 300 km radius. And once he finds them, they're history. He has electronic systems for jamming radios or hacking into systems.

Remarks: Supermode Prowl is a repaint of RID Deluxe Prowl, so look for the full review there. Just a few words on the differences. For his power-up Prowl's mostly white exterior in car mode was recoloured partially blue, just like some parts of his inner robot mode. The gimmicks have remained the same, the missiles and launchers are pretty much identical. Oh, and the insides of his wheels are gold now, not silver anymore.

Prowl's repaint is pretty much the most straight-forward of the three Autobot Brothers, seeing as he kept parts of his white exterior and just added some blue. It fits, seeing as Prowl was the most boring of the three Brothers in the cartoon, too. To tell you the truth I pretty much just got this one here for completeness' sake, but that doesn't change the fact that he's a pretty solid robot, though some people might be turned off by his strange proportions and lots of kibble. Not me, though. I like Prowl, whether in white or white-blue.
