DOUBLEDEALER

This figure is G1/Generation one and is from 1988. He did not appear in any cartoons that I know of  but he did appear in the Dream Wave comic and also in Spot Light.


FUNCTION; Mercenary

MOTTO: "The price of victory is never too high"

TECHSPEC: " A ruthless, battle ready robot for rent. A traitorous backstabber. Only loyal to the highest bidder. Valued by all, trusted by none. When binary bonded to knok, Doubledealer disguises himself as an Autobot robot. When binary bonded to the bat creature, scar, Doubledealer transforms into a Decepticon falcon. Armed with intercontinental ballistic missile that can travel 3,000 miles in 30 minutes. Equipped with enough explosives to flatten a mountain range. Uses solid light blaster in robot mode."

Instructions


He is an interesting figure to have. He has two robot modes. He is an Autobot and Decepticon. The powermaster engines are nice little figures when transformed.

I do think however that his falcon mode looks more like a vulture. He has nice feather details on his wings and thighs. His head has details and eyes which gives him a fierce look with the serrated moulding on his beak. It would have been nice to have the lower beak blue as well. His feet should have been bigger for stability. His robot hands are difficult to conceal as they stick out of the bird mode.
