Sunstone - Rock Lords

Amberman - Ganseki Chōjin - 'A transforming stone shining for justince and a wildman following the ways of nature'

Sunstone was added to the Rock Lords toy line as part of the Jewel Lords assortment.

The model is solid in both modes and has the most robot mode play useful articulation.

Gobots Packaging 'Good: Jewel Warrior' - Jewel Lords did not have a bio card.

Japanese Packaging Practical Translation 'He hates fighting and portrays an icy heart that others can see right through. His nature is gentle and the cold demeanor melts away around other Superhumans. Growing up in harsh, natural conditions made him simple/practical and resistant to the cold.'

Robo Machine Packaging All three Jewel Lords boxes are printed with a different, shared background blurb to all other Series 1, 2 and 3 figures. 'Solitaire is Queen of the Kingdom of Jewels. She and her cohorts - Sunstone and Flamestone are brave, super intelligent and loyal allies to Boulder and the rest of the Good Rock Lords in the continuing battle with the Evil Rock Lords.'

Sunstone was not released in Australia for Bandai's Machine Men toy line.
