The Energon Pub

Got this old transforming Space ship thing. It's in rough shape but actually pretty cool. I'm thinking about repainting it and replacing some missing wings. It has a lot of metal and claw hands reminiscent of a Super Go-Bot but could find a picture of it any where.
I couldn't find a date or company on it but it could have been on the missing wings. Also it obviously connected to a larger part at the rear there is a hole for a about a 3/8 peg it releases with the yellow button. Although the piece here forms one single robot. Any help with an ID would be appreciated.

Quite an interesting specimen.
I have no clue what it is though.

I've got your answers! I too had no idea what this was, but on e-Bay I found this e-Bay auction, which has what seems to be the complete version of your robot (as part of a lot of 30+ transforming robots).
Google'ing the text 'Abega Denjin' led me to this wiki site for an anime called 'Lightspeed Electroid Albegas'.

In turn, this led me here, which shows you exactly what this toy is and looks like complete: Godaikin Abega! And just like Amelie predicted, it was made by Bandai.

That's some good sleuthing! To add to this, it's most likely the toy was purchased as part of the Voltron line, since Abega toys were released domestically intending to be part of the third Voltron series that never happened.

GOtta agree there. Excellent sleuthing. I'm very impressed with both of you. I personally would not have had a clue how to find out info on that particular toy. Let alone the extensive info provided.

Impressive how you found this. I remembered watching couple episodes of that cartoon when I was a child. I love it's theme song (in Japanese of course) even now I still have it in MP3 format (several years ago I converted them from my old kept cassettes). Of course years passed by, I have no memory of ever spotting that jet.

That is so amazing that you were able to find it! I'm very impressed by how the original toy looked. When I get around to refurbishing it I'll show it off here. Aldarker your the best!!!

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! The detective-work was fun, and a little luck was also involved (finding the e-Bay picture)! Looks like a nice toy: I hope the refurbishing goes well, Jcarnley!
