Autosanrin

From Transformers Wiki

Autosanrin is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Autosanrin (オートサンリン) is an Autobot with not one, not two, not four but THREE wheels. He probably has feet, but we don't know for sure. He transforms into a car that has, wait for it, three wheels! That's sort of his thing.

[edit] Notes

• Comic Bom Bom held a contest in their October, 1985 issue to design an Autobot under the guidelines that it must transform into a car and that its transformation must actually look possible. Little Toshifumi Yamashina won with this design for Autosanrin and for his efforts he was awarded a Shockwave toy and a Transformers fanclub gold coin set.

• Sanrin means "three wheels" in Japanese, by the way.
