This is a posable action figure of a character from science-fiction/anime.
Takara Tomy's "Transformers Missing Link" action-figure series is a virtual reprint of toys that might have existed in the original era! What if the original Sunstreaker toy had been fully posable? This toy has been made with a completely new design while retaining the size, texture, and nostalgia of the original!
The size, transformation pattern, and basic structure, which uses some die-cast alloy, follow the original Sunstreaker toy, but updated joint movements and gimmicks for posing have been included. The packaging and styrofoam tray are a thorough homage to the original style, and brings back the excitement of opening a "Transformers" product in the 1980s!
Sunstreaker was born as the first car robot product, and appeared early in the anime, but was not sold separately in Japan. This item is the first to be commercialized based on the single-sales box, and since there was no re-release this is the long-awaited revival of the original toy for the first time since 1986!
The joints, which had limited posability in the original figure, have been changed to much more movable ones for easier posability. A new human/worker type figure has been added, which was not included at the time; both forms can be mounted in the cockpit. A plated flare gun, the same type included with Lambo, is included; in addition, the punch-firing gimmick has been eliminated, and instead the fist has been updated to a fully transformable specification that stores inside the arm. A large attachable punch is also included, allowing you to reproduce the original specifications.
The familiar "secret emblem" is also attached to the robot body, and the legion mark appears when you warm it with your fingers! The parts that were stickers applied to the toy at the time are now reproduced with relief molding and paint (stickers are also included that you can attached if you like, so you can change the color of the shoulders to metallic yellow). A joint hole for the stand (sold separately) has been added on the back, so it can be displayed in action poses, and the package illustration is a new drawing inspired by the image of the original release; a collection card featuring the same illustration is also included.
