NEW Changeable Robots
Blue Bomber is a re-released and re-coloured version of the original Zybots Advanced Changeable Robots figure Pickup.
The original black Pickup was also reissued as the colour variant for Blue Bomber. There are a number of identifying differences between the original and the NEW Changeable Robots variant. The face is black plastic with a yellow painted front vs. the original version where the face is yellow plastic with black painted details. The Z X leg stickers are applied inverted to the original version with the letters at the back of the tray in vehcle mode. The less obvious difference is that the wheel rims were cast in a darker yellow plastic matching the yellow of other NEW Changeable Robots like model rims.
The most confirming is the inclusion of the Macau manufacturing stamp insert glued into the back of the left leg as the original release
is smooth in that area with no stamp cavity and Made in China is stamped on the right leg. For this variant REMCO used a Wrecker left leg cast in black that does have the cavity then glued in the Macau stamp insert. Made in China was removed from the right leg mould.
