- A redeco of the Mini-Vehicle Cliffjumper, Carrera transforms into a "penny-racer"-proportioned Porsche 924, blending elements of the 924 Turbo and 924 Carrera GT versions. He was released only in Brazil by Estrela, and was available in two different color schemes: blue (used for his package art) or white. He also has a new "Optimus" faction sigil decal on his chest/roof, as well as an all-new sticker design on the back of his head.
- All of the "Optimus/Malignus" Mini Vehicle releases are considered rare, and go for a fairly high price on the secondary market, particularly the secondary color schemes. However, Carrera appears to be the least in-demand, as both colorations were also available in other releases: white and (darker) blue Cliffjumpers were released in Mexico (which also made their way to various European markets), while Antex released their own white Carrera .

Notes
[edit]- The toys from the Brazilian sub-series commonly referred to as "Optimus vs. Malignus" do not have bios, but share the same names and molds as previous (factionless) Brazilian releases that used the same bios as their Hasbro counterparts, only in Portuguese. As such, it's possible that Carrera is the character Cliffjumper outright, and thus this wiki page might not merit its own status.
