- 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.
Notes
- Salto means "jump" in Portuguese and Spanish.
