Toysday: Brotherhood

     Taking a break from Mastermind and going to Masterpiece for the week because I just got this guy in

     Two different third party companies essayted sunstreaker from very different directions at around the same time. Omnigonix Spinout had some good design points but reviews said it was plagued with poor QC and poor execution. Badcube Sunsurge was the one I went with, and he is a great toy...

    But then Takara showed up to the party. They showed up, they brought their own DJ, and their own music selections, and they OWNED.

     At first I thought, "I'm fine with Sunsurge"


     Well, I ended up uniting the brothers.

Sunstreaker represents a new level in engineering for Takara, and they were pretty good before, He still uses the Faux chest gimmick like Badcube but makes the leg transformation stronger and more elegant, yet simpler too. He has a crazy level of posability, as you can see above.

     Takara also managed to give him a traditional Countach rear deck, in addition to the one with the blowers.
    Yes, even his Car-disguise has a disguise. He comes with Chip Chase, and three alternate faces.

An excellent review of all his features can be found here. This also happens to be the merchant I got him from.
