Hey, guys. One quick question for you:

Does Inferno have any other weapons than his Flamethrower?

Show wise he just uses the flamethrower, which can also fire missiles of some kind from time to time. Toy wise, it was always a little tough to tell with the Beast Wars toys because everything was integrated in both modes, but strictly speaking his weapon assembly consists of the gray gun piece, the outer mandible piece (which according to the instructions, could also be used as a hand to hand weapon-it's a got a peg to on his robot arm, just like the gun), the antenae that attach to the mandible piece, and two missles which also double as his back legs (and they're the same on both sides).

Sort of...by and large, the show models were very close to the toy models, especially as the show wore on and got into Transmetals. The one big exception though...was the weapons. Almost everyone had weapon changes, from Megatron's hands (and launcher in his tail), to Dinobot's sword spinning, to Primal's wrist cannons not replacing his fists...you get the idea. Toy wise though there was this general aesthetic of no real guns, only missile launchers. The only exceptions in the entire run were original Rattrap, Cheetor/Tigatron (arguably), and Terragator.
