During the height of Diaclone in Japan, Takara and Nitto collaborated on a series of model kits that covered a fair bit of the Diaclone range, mostly the figures that didn't make it to Transformers and the consciousness of many collectors, things like Dia Battles, Big Powered, Warudaros etc. However, number 16 and 17 in the set covered the very first Diaclone Car Robot mould from the Real & Robo series, the Countach LP500S Super Tuning (red Sunstreaker) and its retool, the Countach LP500S Patrol Type (Police Sunstreaker). What makes these kits essential for any self-respecting Transformers, Diaclone or artwork collector is that they feature the only character artwork ever produced for the red and especially police versions of what would become the famous Autobot "Sunstreaker".

Sidestreak and Prowlstreak, cool I know they're worth more new, but have you been tempted to build them? I see a model kit and cant resist.
Very very tempted, especially as I originally had 2 of the red Sunstreaker kits! Still could happen All the best Maz
Do eeet.........build them. If you build it they will come........ Seriously though, your will power is greater than mine. If I had 2 one would be built instantly. Out of curiosity where on earth did you find these? edit, just noticed the link........gonna read it, hopefully all my questions will be answered in there.
I found these in Germany, a seller was liquidating old toy shop stock. On the few occasions I have seen them before, they've been found on Japanese auction. All the best Maz
