• Takara ID number: 41
• Accessories: twin ion impulse blaster
Bombshell is a redeco of the Diaclone Waruder Insecter Robo ”Kabutron” toy, transforming into a robotic rhinoceros beetle. As a Diaclone mold he has a ”pilot compartment” revealed by opening his clear-yellow chest, but on its own there’s not much you can do with it.
There is a variation on the mold’s insect mode horn; some versions have a rounded indent on the ”top” part near the base-joint, allowing it to fold down further in robot mode.
In Japan, Bombshell and the other Insecticons were ”re-released” as mail-order items from 1987 through 1988. They each cost 880 yen (their normal retail price) and two robot points.
This mold was used to make the Salvo drones.
