The name Rampage was first used by Hasbro Direct for a mail-in variant of Heavy Metal v1 in 1989. When they used it the second time, it was for the character that this custom is based on. The third time they used it, it was for a character from the Rise of Cobra line, once again based on Heavy Metal v1. Still with me?
Good, because it gets even more confusing.
Rampage v2 used the mold of Beach-Head v4 with different paint apps. I feel like this character never had a chance to be himself, and was just a throwaway name that Hasbro dubbed him with after frankensteining him together from spare parts. By the time Rampage showed up in the modern lines, he was based on Heavy Metal v1 again, who had already had another reimagining as Speed Metal, but the less said about that, the better.
Formula:
Head: Frostbite v12
Upper body and accessories: Beach-Head v17
Legs: Beach-Head v11
Alternate head: Ripcord v3
Stand: Marauder Task Force
Paints used: Citadel, Model Master.
Thanks for looking.
