Can /toy/ identify?

I bought this guy off at a swap meet, he has pretty good articulation, but no markings at all.
He has plenty of peg holes trough his body so it's most likely incomplete.

R.E.V.s Tengu
Radically Engineered Vehicles.

He's a pretty nice figure, shame that the line was generally bad given how good the base figure is.

Playmates' R.E.V.S. It was a fairly short lived line from the mid/late 00's that tried to compete with Transformers and failed miserably.

Was a fun line though, picked up a small force of both sides, the Motor Bike, Jet, and the Car... which I believe your guy is.
Basically, they had a bunch of kibble that could either make a vehicle shell or be used as armor.

You could also fold the robot up inside the car with the armor on.
I don't know whether that worked for the motor bike/jet ones though.

I was a damn fool to avoid these because they were a rip-off. I ended up hating TF's anyway

They were overpriced and by the time they went on clearance, all the interesting ones were gone.

It is a shame though that they didn't try to make the concept better. I think if they'd dropped the pull-back motors and focused on the engineering more, it'd have killed. I mean, it's essentially customizable Transformers, which fans have wanted for years.

It was such a lame gimmick I forget that even had it, AND I STILL HAVE TENGU'S CARDSTOCK!!!

But I was more interested in the smallest figures anyways, they weren't weigh down by a motor and were littered with peg-holes.
But it's like you said, the Engineering need worked, a few of my armor-bits won't stick because the peg was too thick or the hole got worn loose.

Holy Fuck! I forgot that I had that figure. Wow, I remember getting it simply because I had an OC that looked similar to the black robot. Didn't give a shit about the parts and accessories (well, the car was just a prop for me) because the robot was cool to me. Gotta find where I packed up that little bastard now...
