- Accessories: Pistol, rifle
- Part of the ninth wave of the 2015 Robots in Disguise toyline's Warrior Class assortment (now sporting the "Combiner Force" subline branding), Stormshot transforms from a robot into a fighter jet of fictional origin, seemingly based loosely on the MiG-29 "Fulcrum".

Not documented in the instructions, the second peg hole on the smaller blaster is meant to allow for an alternate means of storage for the weapons in vehicle mode. Turning the larger blaster upside-down and plugging it into the bottom peg hole allows for the combined weapon to be plugged under the nosecone of the jet, with the handle of the smaller blaster serving as landing gear, complete with half a tire sculpted on the bottom of said handle.
- This figure was later repurposed as Shattered Glass Darkwing.
