Title:
Astrotrain Carded
Description:
Astrotrain (Deluxe Class, 2006)
Accessories: Rifle
Classics Astrotrain, like much of the Classics line, is an extensive update of the original Astrotrain design based heavily upon his cartoon appearances and using modern toy engineering techniques. He still transforms into a spaceship resembling a NASA Space Shuttle, but with two rather obvious locomotive front halves on the sides of the rear hull. Instead of a steam locomotive, his secondary vehicle mode is a Tsubame 800 bullet train. His robot mode is based heavily upon his Generation 1 cartoon animation model design, and is armed with a large purple laser rifle similar to the original toy’s rifle (The side of the rifle has a Mini-Con shaped port on it, if one chooses to do it). However, purple highlights aside, his deco’s color scheme is predominantly based on the original Takara toy.A design fluke that was acknowledged on Hasbro’s official Transformers website allows Astrotrain to connect to Cybertron Ultra Class Jetfire or his redecos, Cybertron Sky Shadow or movie toyline Jetstorm, via his landing gear. (Coincidentally, Jetfire’s alternate mode is based on a Ukrainian Antonov An-225 Mriya, which was used to transport the Buran orbiter, the Soviet counterpart of the NASA Space Shuttle, on its back.)As with most Classics toys, he has a heat-sensitive rubsign.This mold was also used to make Generations Shouki.
