Revision as of 05:06, 21 October 2019

Sunspot is a Decepticon from the live-action film series continuity family (via the 2010 Transformers toyline).
I like my Decepticons sunny side up.

Sunspot's tiny processor can just about fit one thought into it at a time, and more often than not, that thought is how much he loves flying. Unfortunately for the Decepticons, this means he is constantly forgetting his missions, his targets, his timetables and even his current location. Unfortunately for Sunspot himself, it means he has a distinct tendency to fly directly into the hands—or sights—of the Autobots.[1]

Toys

Transformers (2010)

  • Sunspot (Scout Class, 2010)
    • Accessories: Left and right axes
Transformers: Hunt for the Decepticons Sunspot is a yellow and white redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Scout Class Skystalker, transforming into a flying-wing-style stealth jet drone similar to the BAE Corax. He is armed with two axes that form part of his wings in vehicle mode, and can either be held in his hands or clipped directly into his forearms. The robot mode feet are spring-loaded so the heels and toes collapse down and together when the feet are lifted off the ground.
The instructions include a "battle mode", which is essentially the vehicle mode with the robot legs untransformed, similar to the "alternate transformation" mode seen on Generation 1 Jetfire, which of course, was the "gerwalk" mode from the Japanese series Super Dimensional Fortress Macross.
Like Skystalker, Sunspot can be attached to the top of Revenge of the Fallen Mindwipe's alternate mode via two pegs. Additionally, Sunspot's axe/hook weapons can clip onto Mindwipe's shins.
This mold was also used to make the Tokyo Toy Show exclusive Generation 2 Smokescreen and Generations GDO Laserbeak.
