Not... okay, okay, basically Movor. But at least his name isn't as dumb.

He can go in space!

Operation Combination

• Battle Gaia (Multi-pack, 1992)
  • Japanese ID number: TF-10

Shuttle Gunner is a redeco of Blast Off, transforming into a Space Shuttle. Using the Scramble City-style of combination, he can form any limb to a compatible torso, though his nominal placement is as the right arm to Battle Gaia. He was only available as part of the Battle Gaia giftset.

This mold was also used to make Robots in Disguise Movor.

Notes

• The Shuttle Gunner depicted in the July 1992 issue of TV Magazine (as seen above) has some color differences compared to the final version; most notably, the retail toy's chest is dark green, and his shuttle windows are purple.
