  • Salt-Man Z (1985)
    • Accessories: "Beta ray gun"
Salt-Man Z is a redeco of Twin Twist, transforming into a Cybertronic twin-drill tank via a very simple, one-step process. His vehicle mode features a pull-back motor which propels him forward; after a short distance, a latch on his body releases his spring-loaded legs, and the weight and momentum flips Salt-Man Z up onto his robot-mode feet. A small lever on the back of his head adjusts the timing of when his head hits the floor, and thus his kickoff angle, hopefully making this gimmick work better.
Like most South American Transformers of the era, he was available in several color schemes. His box art used black/yellow (available in Brazil), but it was also produced in blue/yellow (Argentina) as well as blue/orange (Brazil and possibly Argentina). It was sold only in Argentina and Brazil.
Like most of the South American Transformers, Salt-Man Z has poor-quality paper decals that are prone to losing their adhesiveness in short order.
This mold was also used to make Robot-Man Z.

Trivia

  • Salto means "jump" in Portuguese and Spanish.
