(Removing repetitive gif and it is seen later in the gallery. Adding trivia. I may be wrong with something like War with the Cabal on Mars or That Wizard Came From the Moon being more prolific but idk. Six is a lot. Hope they let Randal rest now, tbh. He's run his course.) |

Prior to the release of Beyond Light, Bungie had announced plans to vault some of its content to improve the game. With the launch of the expansion the past Destiny 2 iterations of Randal such as the violet and nightmare Vandals were also vaulted to the great disappointment of the community. However, the past nightmares were just a bed time story, as Bungie announced the return of real Randal the Vandal with the return of the [[Cosmodrome]]. | Prior to the release of Beyond Light, Bungie had announced plans to vault some of its content to improve the game.
