No, no, no, I don't mess with computers, okay? Ever since I died of dysentery on the Oregon Trail, I was like, no thank you. I'm done with this.

Fiction

Train Wars

When The Fallen attacked Cybertron in the hopes of merging with Vector Sigma, Overdrive sought additional help using the power of his Quantum Dial. Further empowering the dial with the help of the Oracle, Overdrive reached across space and time to recruit a policebot of Sunstreaker's body-design and other inter-dimensional warriors. Train Wars The Fallen assumed a combination form, however, and managed to impale the reinforcements using energy spikes. Metroplex, the Trainbots, the Train Team, and the Liner Team soon arrived to turn the tide, and the Fallen was ultimately defeated. In the aftermath, the dimensional travelers were returned home by the Omnibots. Train Wars 2

Toys

Masterpiece

Oh, come on! I'm the creepy guy that's supposed to be at stuff that you have happen!
  • Cordon (2018-10-27)
    • Japanese ID number: MP-42
Masterpiece Cordon is a redeco and retool of MP-39 Sunstreaker, transforming from robot to a licensed Lamborghini Countach LP500S with a lightbar, bearing the mark of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. His front and rear license plates read "CR-03" in reference to his Diaclone progenitor's position as #3 in the Car Robots line (their unique inclusion may be a reference to fellow police Lamborghini Car Robots C-003 Mach Alert).
When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, a collector coin is included, bearing his face on the obverse side. It comes mounted in a folded card resembling his hood and windscreen on the front, and the vehicle's "Super Tuning" mode rear end on the back.[1]

Notes

You honestly didn't assume I would hire a look-alike to wear a fake beard and do tai chi in my window?
  • Cordon is a Transformers version of Diaclone No. 3 Countach Patrol Car Type, whose original tooling was recycled with a new paintjob to become the original Generation 1 Sunstreaker.
  • A mock-up of a "Sunstreaker Police Type" (presumably a placeholder name) redeco of the 2008 Universe Sunstreaker mold, an homage to the Diaclone toy, was shown in Transformers Generations 2014 Vol. 1 as one of ten potential exclusives for Vol. 2. The mock-up promised that the final product would feature a lightbar, presumably the one from the Henkei! Alert version of the mold. In the end it didn't win the poll to determine which of the ten would be produced, receiving only 3.8% of the fan votes.[2]
