Title:
PP-16 Autobot Moonracer ✅
Description:
Autobot Moonracer (Deluxe Class, 2018)
TakaraTomy ID number: PP-16
TakaraTomy release date: July 28, 2018
Accessories: Rifle, Prime Armor/combiner hand, Prime Master gap filler/gun
Known designers: John Warden (Hasbro)
Part of the second wave of Power of the Primes Deluxe Class toys, Moonracer transforms from a robot based on her appearance in ”The Search for Alpha Trion” to a Cybertronian car. She can also form a limb for any Combiner Wars-style Combiner (or one of Legends Godbomber’s legs). Like all other Power of the Primes Deluxe Class figures, she comes with Prime Armor (redecoed from that of Jazz) with a place for a Prime Master, Enigma, or Matrix core that can transform into a hand for a Combiner. She also comes with a piece that can fill the gap in the chest armor or be held as a gun. Her instructions, TakaraTomy stock photos, and box art depict her as part of Elita-Infin1te. Later Siege material would also brand Moonracer as part of Orthia. As an undocumented feature, her gun can combine with Novastar’s gun to form a larger rifle that doesn’t look too out of place in a combiner hand.
Moonracer’s kibble results in a very large backpack, due to the fact at least 75% of her car mode folds up into it despite not being a shellformer. Surprisingly, she is still fairly sturdy in robot mode as the backpack is mostly hollow.
Moonracer’s original sculpt was retooled into Novastar, Siege Greenlight and Generations Selects Lancer, and was thoroughly retooled into Generations Selects Tentakil and Scylla. Siege Chromia, Generations Selects Nightbird and Legacy Evolution Kaskade also reuse parts of Moonracer’s mold; specifically the wheels, thighs and hip ball joint sockets.
