  • Grendene Transformers sandals (2008)
Only available as a gift after purchasing the Grendene Transformers sandals, this unnamed red wristwatch both resembles and shares engineering with the Real Gear Robots Meantime and Midnighter XR-4 mold, but features all-new sculpting and doesn't share any parts with them, though the arms and legs retained some simplified superficial details.
The watch keeps the basic structure of the original mold but radically changes some major details, the biggest difference being that this time it is actually a working digital watch. Its default screen displays only the current hour and minute, but it also features the month and day, a stopwatch function and an alarm clock function. The display face has a big, half-covered Autobot insignia at its top and "Transformers" proudly written at the bottom. Due to the changes made to its internal mechanisms, the display face cannot be rotated, making it a little uncomfortable to actually look at the time while wearing it in watch mode (assuming you can fit it on your wrists, anyway).
Other more noticeable changes are the newly molded smaller hands as well as the removal of the elbow joints and the little sculpted watch present on the original mold's left arm. The robot's head, despite being similar to the original version, is simplified and lacks any recognizable face, featuring only what appears to be a visor and a mouthplate.
This toy was officially licensed by Hasbro for distribution by Brazilian shoe manufacturer Grendene, more specifically its subsidiary Grendene Kids.
