As one of the last figures to be released in the 1980s toy line, Rotar is one of the line's lesser-known characters and has received little exposure. The only official medium to feature Rotar is the
Mattel mini-comic "Energy Zoids ". In this story, he is an ordinary Royal guardsman who is critically injured in battle, and his life is saved byMan-At-Arms , who turns him into an energy zoid, using a machine he had designed to createrobot warriors.Skeletor later steals the machine and uses it to create Rotar'sevil rivalTwistoid . Rotar also makes a cameo inMarvel Comics ' MOTU issue # 12.Mattel had also designed a
vehicle called theGyratakker which was intended to launch Rotar and Twistoid into combat. This vehicle features in the comic, but the toy line was cancelled before it could be released.
