Velasa Raptor

The Velasa Raptor is an exclusive armor set designed by the renowned Raicho Kobo for the 52Toys BeastDrive line. It is not a standalone character but an armor set built for the mold's shared inner frame. This armor transforms the core skeleton into a swift and aggressive mechanical raptor, providing a distinct identity from the standard retail version of the mold.

The backbone of the Terrascorcher forces, the Velasa Raptors' superheated armor can melt through the densest rock. As pack hunters, they create rivers of molten lava by driving along the native roads. When the terrain is too difficult for wheeled travel, they transform into Beast Mode and continue spreading destruction. Clever and resourceful, their incineration powers can reshape a planet's surface.

Function: Terrascorcher ground forces
Weapons: Ferroshields, Lava armor
Beast Mode: Deinonychus infernus
Combustion Core Engineer: Candle Flight

Released in August 2023 as a BotCon 2023 exclusive. The Velasa Raptor armor was not sold separately but was included as a bonus part of the 'BD-03BCON + BCON-TD Scales & Velasa Raptor Armor Set'. This bundle featured the exclusive 'Scales' figure and offered collectors a '1 frame, 2 interchangeable armor' system right out of the box.

As a BotCon 2023 exclusive, this armor set and its accompanying 'Scales' figure are highly desirable for fans of the BeastDrive line and collectors of convention-exclusive items. Its scarcity is its primary value driver, making it significantly harder to find than the mass-retail BD-03 Naughty Saur mold it is based on. It is considered a key piece for completists of the line.
