Rhinox is highly intellectual scientist and skilled inventor. He looks rather bulky and clumsy, but his disposition is gentle and tactful. In every situation he remains primarily an explorer. Whatever happens, Rhinox never loses his head. Though quiet and peace-loving, he can be a formidable adversary, if his friends are in danger. Rhinox is perfectly content with his official status and never tries to become the leader of the Maximals. But when forced to take command, he manages his duty successfully. Everybody respects him, and even Megatron himself wouldn't mind taking Rhinox into his detachment. Once he tries to do so, but his attempt fails.
