Title:

Thunderhead With Major Tungsten

Description:
Major Tungsten / Thunderhead (Human Alliance Basic, 2011)

Takara ID number: DA22

Accessories: Rifle, two c joint double-barreled blasters

Known designers: Andrew Scribner (deco artist)

Part of the first wave of Dark of the Moon Human Alliance Triple Changer figures, Thunderhead has two different alternate modes. In spider-tank mode, he has a large turret up top with a seat for any Human Alliance figure to sit at behind the main gun. In "mech” mode, he becomes a bipedal suit of armor for the human figure to fit into. His turret cannon can be detached and used as a hand-held rifle, and he has two small double-barreled blasters that can be mounted on his numerous c joint weapon-mounting bars, including two on the rifle itself. He comes with Major Tungsten.
Thunderhead’s instructions give a different configuration for his robot mode feet than is depicted in his stock photography. His toes fold down farther to form a trigram foot, complete with a flat section on his tip toes for him to stand on. There is also more of a fixed seat for the human figure in mech mode, as opposed to him just dangling from the cockpit as shown in the stock photo. His arms have no bicep rotation, giving him the odd distinction of his hands always being palm-up from the front. As a result, he holds his rifle to the side.
This mold was also used to make Dark of the Moon Crosshairs.
