Carry Can

Carry Can is another obscure transforming robot from the company Four Star. This toy was released as part of their Transistor Robots line. You can actually see an image of the carded robot here.

“Hauls for the strike force and marches with the robots!”

“Now it’s a Truck! Now it’s a Robot! Hours of fun!”

Listed in this series is:

• Rescue Squad
• Gas Tanker
• Fast-Back
• Rat Race

In vehicle mode it’s a generic trash truck. There’s simple molded detail, black tires, and an obvious metal rod sticking out of the side of the front.

The back is supposed to have a door on it. The door has a circle where something should mount. Sadly mine is missing, as iare most of the loose specimens.

The robot features a diecast chest and the rest is plastic. There was a sticker sheet included, but that has been lost to time. The same can be said for the rear door. Normally we don’t review incomplete toys, but i’ll always make an exception for Four Star.

There’s a small hole on the back. Is it used for mounting something, or just a remnant of the manufacturing process?

If anyone has any leads of more of the items in this series, or more information, please let me know.
