Toys
Generation 1
- Volks (Mini Vehicle, 1985)
- A redeco of the Mini Vehicle Bumblebee, Volks transforms into a "penny-racer"-proportions Volkswagen Beetle. He was released only in Brazil by Estrela, and was available in two different color schemes: orange or red. He also has a new "Optimus" faction sigil decal in robot mode.
- All of the "Optimus/Malignus" Mini Vehicle releases are considered fairly rare, and go for a fairly high price on the secondary market, particularly the secondary color schemes; though considering the second Volks is red, a color Bumblebee was also available in domestically, that version isn't in particularly high demand.
