Reverb is an Autobot from the Dark of the Moon portion of the movie continuity family.
As silent as the sound of three lawnmowers revving all at once.

Reverb revels in his ability to fly silently behind enemy lines and take out hidden guards without being heard. As a recon officer, he is teamed up with Sergeant Detour to direct Autobot attacks on fortified Decepticon strongholds. The two are critical members of NEST's Autobots.

Toys

[edit]

Dark of the Moon

[edit]
  • Sergeant Detour / Reverb (Human Alliance Basic, 2011)
  • Japanese ID number: DA27
  • Accessories: Missile pod
Part of the fourth wave of Human Alliance Triple Changer toys, Reverb transforms from a robot with handlebars on his head into an asymmetrical red hoverbike with spinning rotors, and with NEST logos on the left side of the front end and on the back-left of the seat. He also possesses a third "gunnery station" mode, consisting of all the rotors facing forward like some kind of giant fan, which can be held by any MechTech or 5mm post-compatible figure. The small "wings" in his hoverbike mode end up mounted under his left arm and can be used as a bladed weapon in robot mode. He also comes with a two-rocket missile pod accessory, having two C joint bars to place it onto, with one on the right side of the vehicle mode and one the robot mode's right arm. Owing largely to his transformation scheme, Reverb is exceptionally well articulated. Above and beyond the articulation of his contemporaries, Reverb has double-jointed knees, elbows, and a balljointed neck mounted on a second swivel.
The pegs and peg-holes used to hold the fans in place for Reverb's weapon mode can be 5mm and Mini-Con-compatible, although their tightness/looseness can vary between each toy.
It should also be noted that the tab behind the seat that holds part of the hoverbike's back together refuses to stay connected, with the tab being slightly too big for the hole, and attempting to peg it in will cause enough pressure to split it back open, causing stress marks to the tab slot in the process.
Like all Human Alliance figures, he comes with a "pilot" figure; in this case, it's Sergeant Detour.
