This article is about the Brazilian-market Transformer. For the car brand, see Porsche.
Porsche is possibly an Autobot from the Estrela portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Porsche has a trademark-infringing name!

Transformers

  • Eletrix Porsche (Eletrix, 1985)
Released in Brazil by Estrela, Porsche transforms from a black Porsche 930 Targa to a robot and back with a press of one of the buttons on the wired remote control. The other button propels the car (or robot) forwards. Like the other Eletrix, the toy is powered by two AA batteries.

Notes

  • The Eletrix were originally released in Japan by Yonezawa Toys under the name Remote Change Robo Series. They were also released in the US by Village Toys as Convert-A-Bots "Pow-R-Bots". Porsche is mostly identical to these other lines' releases of the toy: the stickers on the remote control are different (but similar) for each company. His on-body stickers are unchanged, the only one of the three not to have those changed for the Estrela release.
  • Also new to the Estrela versions of these toys is the packaging art, done in a painterly style to match the recycled Hasbro-made art for the other toys.
