Red Alert
Description:
Complete
Red Alert (Autobot Car, 1985)
Japanese ID number: 05
Accessories: ”High-Energy Particle Beam Rifle”, Shoulder-Mounted Rocket Launcher, 3 rockets
Red Alert is a redeco of the Diaclone ”New Countach LP500S Police Car”, which was itself a retool of the original Diaclone ”New Countach LP500S” that added roof lights to the figure’s Lamborghini alternate mode. Rather than a police car like the original figure, Red Alert’s new paint job recasts him as a fire chief’s car—a rather dubious disguise, all told, Lamborghinis not exactly being affordable vehicles for fire departments to use. He comes with a hand-held particle beam rifle, and a rocket launcher that clips onto his shoulder. The Hasbro release disabled the launcher’s spring-loaded missile-firing mechanism, but it was reinstated for Takara’s release of the toy.Red Alert’s toy has been reissued several times; each reissue is listed separately below. Red Alert was also redecoed to make Clampdown, who was an homage to the mold’s original police deco, while the original version of the mold was used to make Sideswipe, Deep Cover, Tigertrack, and Generation 2 Sideswipe.
