Title:
Red Alert Cybertron
Description:
Red Alert (Deluxe Class, 2005)
Takara ID number: GC-11
Takara release date: February 10, 2005
Accessories: Clamp attachment, hammer attachment, Earth Cyber Key
Cyber Key Coe: d26w
Cybertron Red Alert transforms into a Dodge Magnum emergency vehicle. Plugging a Cyber Key into the back of his car mode causes two rear side-panels to pop out and reveal two spring-forward non-firing blasters. This gimmick is retained in robot mode, where they become over-shoulder blasters. He features an unusual transformation sequence where both the front and rear halves of the vehicle mode come together to form his legs. His hood halves open to reveal storage space for extra tools (a hammer-head and an opening claw) that can be attached onto his left arm blaster. Later releases of the mold had slight indents made in the leg pieces to allow them to clip together better.
The Takara Galaxy Force version of this toy lacks the gold paint on the robot mode shoulders, and has lighter blue paint than the Hasbro release. And of course, the Cyber Key lacks the Hasbro version’s Cyber Key Code.
This mold was later used to make Cannonball, the live-action movie-verse Crankcase, and Timelines Kup. The Kup tooling was also the model for the non-toy Shattered Glass Kup.
