Transformers Lunar Cruiser Optimus Prime Action Figure

In recent years, the potential of space has attracted attention and become more familiar, such as research on how humans can live on the moon. In addition, Takara Tomy, in collaboration with JAXA, etc., has developed an ultra-compact lunar robot nicknamed "SORA-Q" (*2). It will be installed on the lunar landing demonstration vehicle "SLIM", and "SORA-Q" is scheduled to be launched to the moon. The development of "SORA-Q" utilized Takara Tomy's knowledge of miniaturization and weight reduction cultivated in toy making, as well as technology related to deformation mechanisms represented by "Transformers".
