Yamato Adds Transformable Motoslave with Sylia Action Figure to 1:15 Scale BGC Collection

Torrance, CA, April 17, 2008 - Yamato, renowned for its transformable Macross, Megazone and Armored Trooper Votoms action figures, continues to push the envelope of toy engineering with its 1:15 transformable Motoslave from Bubblegum Crisis (or BGC as it is known to its legion of fans). Piloted this time by Sylia, founder of the Knight Sabers, the Motoslave is a transforming fighting machine. And true to form, Yamato captures all the transforming action in this amazing piece which measures approximately 6.00" in motorcycle mode and 6.40" in motoroid robot mode. This incredible package even includes a Sylia action figure with a host of interchangeable parts and multiple points of articulation. What's more, Sylia can even be attached to the Motoslave! Includes display base, rifle and additional interchangeable parts.

Yamato's 1:15 Bubblegum Crisis Motoslave with Sylia action figure will be available this Summer with a suggested retail price of $74.99! For more information on this incredible piece, as well as a host of other fine collectibles, visit us at www.YamatoToysUSA.com.
