Toys
Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers
- Deszaras (Breastforce, 1989)
- ID number: D-336
- Accessories: 2 blaster-barrels
- Known designers: Kōjin Ōno (TakaraTomy), Masakatsu Saito (concept artist)
- Released in the Victory portion of Takara's Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers toyline, Eaglebreast transforms from a very rectangular robotic bird into a twin-barreled blaster cannon, plus has a third mode as a piece of chest armor for Deathsaurus. In armor mode, he's designed to be pushed back further inside Deathsaurus' chest cavity to make room for the Decepticon leader's other "Breast Animal" partner Tigerbreast.
- Eaglebreast's blaster barrels are separate pieces that need to be removed and turned around in conversion, but you can always just leave them off in eagle and armor modes.
- Of course, he was only available packed in with Deathsaurus and Tigerbreast.
Legacy
- Deathsaurus (2023)
- Series: Victory / Legacy
- Known designers: Brian Parrish and Evan Brooks (Hasbro), Hisashi Yuki (TakaraTomy), Guido Guidi (packaging artist)
- The third Transformers figure produced through Hasbro's crowdfunding platform HasLab, the enormous, immaculately cartoon accurate Deathsaurus is naturally packed with his "Micromasters", "Tigerchest" and "Eaglechest". Eaglechest transforms into chest armor, which fits into Deathsaurus's chest cavity. Eaglechest also becomes a double-barreled blaster for Deathsaurus, compatible with blast effects. Deathsaurus' throne's top has sculpted areas allowing Eaglechest to perch on it. The eyes are painted metallic red (which is not noticeable on red plastic) instead of toy/show-accurate silver.
- Like Victory Saber, Deathsaurus cost $179.99 and required 11,000 "backers" to go into production. The crowdfunding began on October 27, 2022, and ran through December 12 with an expected shipping date of Fall 2023. The set was fully funded on November 28, 2022, 14 days before the project deadline, and began shipping to purchasers in December 2023.
- For reasons unknown, Eaglechest inserts into Deathsaurus's chest upside-down compared to his toy form and cartoon appearance.
Merchandise
Transformers Gum
- Hot Spot (2012)
- Eaglebreast was released by Kabaya as a snap-together kit, and can assume all three modes of the original toy, albeit through partforming. In bird mode, he can be perched on a slot on the shoulder of Deathsaurus, or held in his hand in gun mode. He can also combine with Deathsaurus by inserting into his chest, though his bird head needs to be removed. This toy is very small, around the size of a pinky fingernail, so be careful not to accidentally inhale his removable bits
- Though he is designed to interact with the Deathsaurus figure, Eaglebreast came packaged with Hot Spot from the same wave.
