This is one of two Malingus Jipe's produced in the second wave of Transformers. This is the first time the mini-cars were placed into Autobot and Decpticon factions. Optimus are the Autobots, and the Malingus are the Decepticon with all new symbols.
This figure had a bit more thought placed into it, and they added a red head to Brawn instead of a silver one. The second series mini's are tougher to locate than the first series.
Pictured below is a packaged Jipe in the blue Malingus colors. This piece is amazing in that it contains brand new artwork for the Decepiticon Brawn. Jipe has a powerful stance and a laser firing from his eye. It does not get much better than this!
