Thanks to Boo, an admin, graphic designer, and webmaster here at Axalon Underground, we have a full translation of Figure King 322’s page on Missing Link Sunstreaker and the surprise reveal of a Dia-Naut style “Worker” pilot, that looks a lot like Spike Witwicky from the Sunbow Transformers Cartoon.

The page was originally posted by Black Convoy on TFW2005.com. Boo not only translated the full page, but also recreated the page to remove as much as the magazine’s curvature as possible.

Check out the image below and read all of the tidbits about the highly anticipated upcoming Missing Link Transformers figure.

The Translated text reads as follows:

T-SPARK MISSING LINK C-05
SUNSTREAKER
(Release date and final price to be determined)

The latest product from Missing Link, Sunstreaker, which was first exhibited as a prototype in September at the Transformers 40th Anniversary Expo 2024 and became a hot topic, is at last in the final stages of production. Like other Autobots, Sunstreaker’s origins are from Diaclone, and he is the first Diaclone car-to-robot figure. As Missing Link’s theme is to make a near perfect duplicate, this one could not be passed over.
Missing Link is a revival of the excellent gimmicks that are just as timeless in the modern era. Now, let’s take an initial look at the prototype in gray.

ROBOT MODE
The design retains the sci-fi machine aesthetics of early-Diaclone, the cockpit movement mechanism during conversion, and the unique conversion that varies from other car robots manifests the process of trial-and-error and enthusiasm of the vintage figure. Higher articulation is implemented while still retaining the size, style, and texture of the original. A handheld gun, seen in the cartoon, is also included.

WORKER INCLUDED!!
A completely new worker figure that fits in the cockpit is included. It has four points of articulation at the arms and waist. The back of the torso is die-cast metal. The legs have built-in magnets.

CAR MODE
The car mode is interpreted as a unique supercar design equipped with an electronic propulsion booster, so the sticker that had the car brand name displayed on the vintage original is omitted.

The mechanical details that were previously stickers have been sculpted into the 3D model. Because this sample is unpainted, you can also see how the canopy is made of separate parts.
