- F-1 Winner was released in Bandai's Machine Robo: Battle Hackers toyline in 1988, and converts from robot to Lotus 77 Formula One car. As a Winner Robo, toy's conversion is semi-automatic - pressing a button on the underside of the vehicle causes it to pop into robot mode; it is also fitted with Hot Wheels-style wheels and can interact with the Roboshooter Gaiden track playset. Despite this it still retains diecast parts and some arm movement. The head of the robot mode is styled after a Formula One driver's crash helmet.
- Like the other Winner Robo, F-1 Winner was not released outside of Japan.
