During the entirety of G1, every toy store this editor went to in Buenos Aires was replete with imported G1 product (much like the UK) alongside the Argentina-produced toys.</p>

The '''Radio AM Robot''' may look like a cross between [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] and [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]], but he's probably the only Transformer who can pick up the farm report—in ''Spanish''!<br />

Radio AM Robot's latest single was playing at the bar where [[Take-Off]] met with [[Axer (G1)|Axer]]. {{storylink|A Team Effort}}<br />

*'''Radio AM Robot''' (AM radio, 1987)<br />
**''Accessories'': Sword<br />
<br />
: An original mold that takes design cues from Generation 1 Megatron (head), [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] (hips), [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]] (arms), and Soundwave (lower legs), Radio AM Robot transforms into a working AM radio powered by a 9-volt battery.<br />
<br />
: He was released only in Argentina by [[Comando Toys]], and was available in two different color schemes: one baby blue, blue and grey, and one very dark green and red.<br />
<br />
: Curiously, the Radio AM Robot is equipped with a [[sword]] that is almost an exact duplicate of the sword included with the first Japanese release of ''Generation 1'' Megatron, though the handle is shaped differently.<br />

==Notes==<br />
* Radio AM Robot was produced under license by [[Comando Toys]] of Argentina, and sports both the official Transformers logo and a 1987 [[Hasbro]] copyright on his box. What relationship Comando Toys had, if any, to fellow South American toy companies [[Antex]] or [[Estrela]] is unknown.<br />
* Nowhere on his box is Radio AM Robot indicated as an [[Autobot]] or a [[Decepticon]]. However, as no Argentinean-made Decepticon-branded toys were sold there until ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|Generation 2]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Robot-Man X]] and [[Robot-Man Z]], it is possible that Radio AM Robot is an Autobot by default.<br />
* The color scheme depicted in Radio AM Robot's box art does not appear to have been used on an actual toy.<br />
