Mighty Strike

Mighty Stra is an Autobot Mini-Con from the Generation 1 continuity family (oddly via the Revenge of the Fallen toyline).

What we have here is a murder... Mini-Con style. STRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Mighty Stra (マイティーストラ Maitī Sutora) has a name that doesn't make any friggin' sense. Well, the "Mighty" part does.

Oh yeah, he's also a member of the Mighty Microns, who share his having-an-odd-second-word-name-ness.

Toys

Generation 1

• Mighty Stra (Micron, 2009)

Mighty Stra is a redeco of Classics Strongarm, transforming into a police car based on a 2006 Dodge Charger (but with the proportions messed up). He was only available on August 1st exclusively through Japanese stores that are part of the "Edion Group" with the purchase of 2000 yen or more of Revenge toys.

This mold was also used to make Cybertron Strongarm, Radrogue, Detectas, Flatfoot and Overcharge.

Notes

• "Stra"? No, we haven't got a clue either.

• Stra comes with an extra little "instruction" sheet, seemingly a warning about the connector pegs that keep him together in vehicle mode.

• Though Stra and this teammates Mighty Bull and Mighty Dozer were available with the purchase of Revenge toys, their instructions use a somewhat generic Transformers logo, not the one used on Revenge product. As this is their only "packaging" (coming in a clear plastic baggie), that's all we have to work with as to "where" they're from, which defaults them to Generation 1 pretty much.

• Mighty Stra's mold is the only Mini-Con mold with Powerlinx sockets that are accessible only in robot mode by design: the sockets on the outside of his lower legs, which end up folded against his thighs inside his car mode. However, he still has other sockets that remain accessible in both modes.
