Sentinel Prime is the former commander of the Cybertrons, and transforms from a trailer truck into a robot.
The yellow coloring of the vehicle body is based on the trailer truck scanned by the main computer Teletraan I for Convoy in the first episode of the anime "Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers."
The container part transforms into a mobile base and can be played with in combination with Sentinel Prime.
A wide variety of weapons and parts are included.

One other thing to note is that while the description says the yellow coloring was based on the truck scanned by Teletraan I in the first episode, the truck only appears yellow in the Japanese DVDs, which used video masters from the LaserDisc release that had washed out colors.
(Sidenote: These washed out masters are why several Takara Galvatron toys have colored him in light pastel purple instead of dark purple.)
In the US DVD releases, the truck appears properly more orange.
Fudge I'm gonna end up paying a lot for this.From TakaraTomy's Transformers 40th Anniversary Exhibition website and PR Times:
Missing Link C-01S Sentinel Prime
This item is being sold exclusively at the Transformers Expo 2024 exhibition event in Tokyo, Japan.
I was gonna ask. Is slavish devotion to washed out masters and bad DVD scans TT's version of Hasbro just using TFWiki?It's times like this that I appreciate how Hasbro looks at TFWiki instead of doing this nonsense.
More orangey-red highlights instead of blue would have helped.What's funny is that I personally have always felt that yellow would be a suitable color for Sentinel Prime since the very first version that was named "Sentinel Prime" had a primarily yellow torso:
There's also the first instance of IDW Sentinel, in the lineage of Primes scene shown in Spotlight: Optimus. He's far more yellow than orange.The mouthplate being red also seems to be based on that of IDW1 Sentinel's armored form.
Also, I actually brought up this color discrepancy on the wiki, and asked if it would be a good addition to this page. Most agreed that it (and the many lavender Galvatrons from Takara) should.
They may have seen "G1 Sentinel Prime" and assumed Sunbow Sentinel aka U-Haul Robot, but as we've discussed "G1 Sentinel Prime" can be anything from lilac blue and orange to yellow and red to orange, red, and yellow.I think the biggest surprise about these colors is that the original leak from JTPrime said it was gonna be in the colors of the U-Haul Robot.
