As such, it's possible that Camaro is basically "evil Windcharger". This also raises the possibility that the "good/evil" designations are retroactive for the Brazilian toys....</div>

Generation 1
- Camaro (Mini Vehicle, 1985 - 1987)
- A redeco of the Mini Vehicle Windcharger, Camaro transforms into a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am (which begs the question of what's up with his name). He was released only in Brazil by Estrela, and was available in four different color schemes: Original Microchange colors and white hull with grey body in 1985, and then again in 1987 in metal-flake blue with pale yellow, and dark purple with lavender robot parts. While both releases were Autobots in 1985 (but without any Autobot markings), he became part of the a new "Malignus" faction in 1987 and received a "Malignus" 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; in this instance, the purple/lavendar Camaro goes for more than the blue/gray.
