  • Big Shuttle Robo (1985)
    • ID number: BMR-05
    • Accessories: none
Big Shuttle Robo was the 5th figure in Bandai's Big Machine Robo series and transforms from robot to NASA Space Shuttle orbiter - the additional sticker sheet identifies the precise shuttle as the Challenger. The shuttle mode features retractable undercarriage. The robot mode bears very little resemblance to Shuttle Robo, with a completely different robot mode configuration, head design and even colour scheme. It does have decent arm articulation, though.
