Bot a Day: Daily Drawings

I drew this bizarre monstrosity in 2019, and though I'm not doing it any favors with my rendition, the toy itself is ugly. The last of the three Eletrix cars released in Brazil in 1985: Eletrix Porsche, who turns into (fittingly) a Porsche via a wired remote control and two AA batteries.

Another from Brazil's "Eletrix" series of remote control auto-transforming toys. This is Jipe, who turns into a jeep, released in 1985.

Here is another oddity from Brazil. In 1985, Estrala Toys took a design from Yonezawa Toys in Japan and packaged it as a Transformer named Esporte, part of a subset of "Eletrix" characters that were battery-powered to transform at a press of a remote control button. Such functionality resulted in some rather oddly shaped characters.   For 2021 we have Skram, whose bio lists him as Autobot Crack Patrol, whatever that means. He was released in the US as the Generation Two line in 1993. Turns into a blue Chevrolet Stingray-style Corvette. The exposed chromed engine becomes his hand weapon in robot mode.
