Skystalker is a Predacon from the Prime portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Seen here relishing his five-foot-long invisible hoagie.

Skystalker (aka Stormrazor) is a Predacon subjected to hyper-evolution by Shockwave. While his high intelligence, sense of logic, and careful deliberation would make the one-eyed Decepticon scientist proud, his emotions can sometimes get the best of him in the most destructive of ways. Aiding him in this destruction, his breath can freeze Autobot armor, rendering it dangerously brittle, and the Cryostrike Disc Launchers on his wings are nothing to scoff at, either.

Fiction

[edit]

Tales of the Beast Hunters pack-in story

[edit]

Released from his Hyperevolution Chamber, Skystalker awoke in the midst of a fierce battle between Shockwave and Smokescreen. Despite being tempted to join the fray, Skystalker took this time to observe his surroundings, eventually realizing that he was in a laboratory where he and his fellow Predacons were being experimented upon. This revelation was enough to trigger his rage, and he proceeded to destroy everything around him with his disc launchers. Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 12

Full of Fire!

[edit]

Skystalker joined five other Predacons in an attack on the Autobots. Unfortunately the Autobots had just built themselves new weapons, which proved to be more than effective against the Predacons. Skystalker sort of hovered overhead while Ratchet attacked Ripclaw with his Dragonshredder Drill. The Predacons were beaten into a retreat, and withdrew back to the Nemesis. Full of Fire!

Games

[edit]

Hunt the Beasts online game

[edit]

Skystalker was one of several Predacons who broke free of Shockwave's lab, causing the Decepticon scientist to flee. Information on him could be found via the lab's numerous data terminals. Additionally, security footage of him wandering in Core Protoform Cryogenics was obtained, and you personally encountered him passing through Biotechnology. Hunt the Beasts

Transformers Prime: Beast Creator

[edit]

When Shockwave left his technology unattended, you could use it to custom-create your own monstrous Predacon! Skystalker's CNA was accessible through the cloning machine, resulting in Predacons that shared component parts with him. Beast Creator

Bot Shots Battle Game!

[edit]

Skystalker was created by Shockwave. He participated in numerous one-on-one matches against other Autobots and Decepticons, using his fists, his sword, or his gun to defeat his opponents. Sometimes, he even faced off against himself! Bot Shots Battle Game!

Toys

Prime

[edit]

Fo Krah Diin!
  • Skystalker (Deluxe Class, 2013)
  • Series / Number: 2 / 009
  • Accessories: Two "Cryostrike discs", mace/tail
  • Known designers: Andrew Scribner (deco artist){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}
Part of the third wave of Prime: Beast Hunters Deluxe Class toys, Skystalker transforms into a dragon. The tip of his tail detaches to become a "mace" that can cover either robot hand. His wings also contain built-in pressure-launching "Cryostrike Double Disc Launchers" that can swing forward to be used in robot mode. His robot hands are compatible with 5 mm posts.
His airbrushed prototype stock photography depicts him with painted white forehead scales that are painted metallic blue in the final product. It also depicts him with Decepticon insignias, (This error is replicated in his wallpaper art, seen above.) which the stock photos on his packaging "correct" by replacing them with Predacon insignias that are obviously superimposed stock images. His instructions neglect to mention that the tip of his tail can become a brass knuckle, and the completed robot mode is shown with the hands of the dragon mode despite also showing the transformation steps for the hands earlier on. His instructions also include the twelfth chapter of the Tales of the Beast Hunters series.
This mold was also used to make Go! Judora, Predacons Rising Skylynx, and was the model for the comic-only character Backbite.

He transforms into a beaky-looking reptile thing on wheels. An impact to the front of his beast mode causes him to spring up and autotransform into a robot armed with a pistol. He has a "spinner" in his chest that shows his three attack types and power levels. He comes with Flip Shot Twinstrike and Super Bot Bumblebee.
