Part of the fourteenth wave of TakaraTomy's Legends line, Rarigo is a redeco of Titans Return Apeface's accessory, in Weirdwolf's colors. It can also transform into a jet, or a large blaster cannon usable by other figures via 5 mm post. In all three modes, it can integrate a Legends Headmaster/Titan Master as a pilot or chunk of the alternate mode.

As a redeco of a Titan Master vehicle accessory, care must be taken with the gun mode's handle: the handle fits tightly in many 5mm-compatible closed hands, and combined with the handle's lack of metal pin running through the joint, removing it by force causes the handle to pop out of the joint.

It was only available as a pack-in with the Legends Weirdwolf figure.

Legends Rarigo was repurposed as a member of the Assistant Corps in the Generations Selects Special Comic.

Notes

• "Rarigo" is "Gorilla" (ゴリラ gorira) spelled backwards in Japanese.
