Transformers Missing Link: C-05 - Sunstreaker [Takara Tomy]

Japanese Original Edition, Takara Tomy Transformers

Lost dreams link across time! The "Missing Link" series is a virtual reprint of what may have existed in that era. The fifth installment features Sunstreaker with a narcissistic personality. What if the original Sunstreaker was fully poseable? With this image in mind, the product has been commercialized with a completely new design that retains the size, texture, and nostalgia of the time!

The size, transformation pattern, and basic structure using some die-cast alloy follow the original Sunstreaker toy, while the ideal Sunstreaker toy has been released with updated joint movement for posing and gimmicks depicted in the anime. A thorough homage to the time, from the packaging to the styrofoam tray, brings back the excitement of opening a Transformers product in the 1980s more than the reprint version. Sunstreaker was born as the first car robot product and appeared as an early member in the anime, but was not sold individually in Japan. This product is the first to be reproduced in the image of the single-item sales box, and since there is no reprint version, it is the long-awaited revival of the original type for the first time in 39 years since 1986. The joints, which were limited in posing in the original product, have been changed to movable ones, allowing you to pose freely. A new "human/worker type" has been added, which was not included at the time. Both forms can be mounted in a mobile cockpit. A flare gun of the same type as Lambo is included in a plated finish to recreate the anime scene. In addition, the punch launch gimmick has been eliminated, and instead the fist has been updated to a fully transformable specification that stores inside the arm. In addition, a large attachable punch is included to recreate the original specifications. The familiar "secret emblem" is also attached to the robot body, and the army mark appears when you warm it with your fingers. The parts that were stickers in the toy at the time are reproduced with relief molding and painting, and foil stickers that can be attached as desired are also included, so you can change the color of the shoulders to metallic yellow. A joint hole for a stand (sold separately) has been added to the back, so you can display it in an action pose.
