    I think this is Sunstreaker, but he does not look like his G1 self. The alt mode looks like G1 Breakdown and he also has a combiner port on his chest. Any insight is appreciated. IMG_20180520_000755.jpg IMG_20180520_000742.jpg

    First thought is either knockoff or custom. As far as I'm aware the G1 Breakdown toy was never officially released in yellow.

    I think it may be part of gobot puzzler. I can’t recall the name of the individual bot and it’s too late and I’ve had one too many to look it up.

    Yup, that's Pocket. One sixth of the Puzzler from the GoBots.

    It cracks me up that all the Lamborghini transforming robots are based off the Walter Wolf edition and not the actual released one (you can tell from black trim and rounded fender flares).

    Most of the Car Robots designs were based off specialty models of the vehicles they represent. Racing models were especially pupular. Lamborghini, Porsche, Datsun, Lancia etc.

    Yeah, I know most the of Diaclone figs were special models. However even Gobots, and some of the crappy little Marx toys were also WW Countachs. Lot of the Japan RC cars that I've seen are the same way, and most just label them as Coutach LP500, no WW. Whereas Hotwheel, Matchbox, etc used LP500s.
