The e-Hobby exclusive reissue of Streak (Bluestreak) in "anime" (or Diaclone) colors released as a companion piece to the 2002 Takara reissue of Prowl, also used for the 2003 Hasbro "Silverstreak" reissue (but without the black hood). The mold for the head appears to have degraded somewhat from the original release of the toy, albeit not nearly as much as Jazz' head. To make matters worse, it seems that an inferior, more glossy plastic type was used for the reissue as compared to the original G1 toy. |
