| :''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Silverbolt transforms into a Concorde SST jet liner, and also has a third launcher/base mode for use with the other Aerialbots. A particular weakness of Silverbolt's design is the way both his legs are connected to his hips by a long pin going through several very small (and weak) plastic hinges that are put under stress as the immediate joint underneath this assembly is a swivel used during transformation. His [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release has a spring powered launcher mechanism for the "base" mode that was removed from his [[Hasbro]] releases, leaving only a piece that flopped around uselessly on his chest. He was available both alone and in a gift set with his teammates.
| |
| | |
| :In Japan, the entire "Airbot" team were later offered (as individual purchases) as mail-order items in US packaging during ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Return of Convoy (toyline)|Return of Convoy]]'' in 1991. Silverbolt cost 2000 yen and three [[Robot Point|robot points]] and likewise did not include the base mode launcher.
| |
| | |
| :Silverbolt's hands use rare 4 mm pegholes rather than the 3 mm holes standard on smaller robots or the 5mm holes of larger Transformers (including his fellow "Scramble City" torso robots), which limits him to wielding his own rifle or the weapons from the few other characters who share this size, these being Hot Rod, Blurr, Kup, Scourge, and Springer.

Each wing also contains a spring-loaded missile launcher. He is able to combine with [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Ironhide]] and [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Prowl]], his package buddies, forming part of the torso and helmet to the giant robot [[Magnaboss (BW)#Toys|Magnaboss]].

The toy was finally established by [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] to represent the Generation 1 character Silverbolt a decade after its release in 2007. By contrast in [[2016]], ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' characterized this toy as an independent character, [[Silver Bolt]].

| :Part of the second wave of [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|2008 ''Universe'']] Ultra-class toys, Silverbolt transforms into a (fictional) FB-129<ref name="fb129">The designation is derived from the markings on Silverbolt's redeco [[Skyjack (G2)#Universe (2008)|Skyfall]], which are located in the same position the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Skyjack toy (which represents the same character as ''Universe'' Skyfall), whose [[alternate mode]] is based on an F-117A Nighthawk, sported "FB-117" markings.</ref> supersonic fighter-bomber. As an Ultra Class toy, he comes with various light and sound [[gimmick]]s (exactly the same ones as Universe [[Powerglide (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Powerglide]]), including a machine gun type sound when one presses the big red button on the fuselage, and different classic transformation sound effects depending on whether he is being transformed from vehicle mode or vice versa. His spring-loaded missile-launching blaster features a B-2 Stealth bomber as a decorative shape. His '''BOLT-25''' markings reference both his name and the twenty-fifth (silver) anniversary of the Transformers brand.
| |
| | |
| :The Japanese ''Transformers USA'' version of this toy for the [[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|''Henkei! Henkei!'' line]] features much brighter white plastic, replacing most of his grey plastic with the same white for a better match with his cartoon model. Also, the red on his chest is now a matching shade of red rather than the two tones seen on the ''Universe'' version.
| |
| | |
| :This mold was also used to make [[Darkwing (G1)#Universe (2008)|Darkwind]] and [[Skyjack (G2)#Universe (2008)|Skyfall]] and was the basis of the non-toy ''[[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]]'' version of [[Thunderwing (SG)|Thunderwing]].

He was only available in a [[Target]]-[[exclusive]] gift set along with Legends-class versions of [[Hot Spot (G1)#Universe (2008)|Hot Zone]], [[Scattershot (G1)#Universe (2008)|Scattorshot]], [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)#Universe (2008)|Hun-Grrr]], and [[Razorclaw (G1)#Universe (2008)|Razorclaw]].

| *'''Superion''' (Multi-pack, 2008)
| |
| **''Series'': '''G1 Series'''
| |
| | |
| :Available only as a component of ''Universe'' [[Superion (G1)#Universe (2008)|Superion]], this version of Silverbolt is a white and black redeco of ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Storm Jet (Energon)#Toys|Storm Jet]], transforming into a futuristic supersonic jet similar to an SR-71 Blackbird or [[Skyquake (G1)|Skyquake]]. As a toy derived from the ''Energon''-series "[[Powerlinx]] [[Combiner]]"s, he can attach any ''Energon'' combiner limbs to the Powerlinx ports located on his arms and legs, though nominally he combines with his fellow Aerialbots to become Superion.
| |
| | |
| : Like the Storm Jet version of the sculpt, Silverbolt features several instances of [[misassembly]]: The more obvious one affects his inside legs, which are swapped so that the knee joint faces the wrong way. Although a swap (involving tiny pieces and springs) fixes this, at least a few specimens reportedly had one leg assembled correctly, and the other one incorrectly, making repair impossible. Furthermore, his shoulders are also misassembled, since there is a sculpted chevron...in his armpit. A fix for this requires removing metal pins, which is at least easier than on the original Storm Jet version of the sculpt, since Silverbolt's pins have the ridged section on one end, rather than in the center.
| |
| | |
| :The Superion five-pack, despite being initially intended as a ''Universe'' [[Target]] [[exclusive]], was only released in ''Universe'' packaging in some non-American markets such as Australia and Singapore. Instead, American Target stores (and Zellers stores in Canada) received an unchanged version of the toy in ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' packaging, still named [[Superion (ROTF)|Superion]], with all the individual components, including [[Silverbolt (ROTF)|Silverbolt]], retaining their names as well.

Unlike Shockwave, he does not feature any cannon parts but instead comes with an opaque blue recolor of the sword included with Ultimate [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Construct-Bots|Optimus Prime]]. He does not appear to be based on any version of any character ever to bear his name, except that his colors vaguely match.

| |
| **''Accessories'': rifle/shield
| |
| | |
| :Released as part of the ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' subline, [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|''Generations'']] Silverbolt transforms from a jet resembling a modified Concorde to a robot resembling his original form. He can combine with the Deluxe Class [[Alpha Bravo#Generations|Alpha Bravo]] (or [[Slingshot (G1)/toys#Generations|Quickslinger]]), [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)/toys#Generations|Skydive]], [[Fireflight (G1)/toys#Generations|Firefly]], and [[Air Raid (G1)/toys#Generations|Air Raid]] to form [[Superion (G1)#Generations|Superion]]. Silverbolt includes a collector card featuring art from the "[[Nemesis Rising]]" episode of ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]''.
| |
| | |
| :Silverbolt includes a larger-scale version of the original toy's rifle, which can be held in Silverbolt's or Superion's hands, or mounted to the sides of Silverbolt's forearm or underneath his nosecone in jet mode. The winged rear section of the rifle can be detached and used by Silverbolt as a shield, which can also be separately either held in Silverbolt's hand or mounted to the side of his forearm. Due to the way the head of Superion flips out, as well as the thinness of the plastic making up that joint, it is easy to push the wrong area when folding the head back into the body. This may cause stress lines and fractures if not properly addressed, and in the worst-case scenario Superion's head can simply snap off. On the bright side, it's still possible to secure Superion's head inside Silverbolt's torso, and the combined mode's chest clamps can still hold the head in place for the combined mode.
| |
| | |
| :Silverbolt can also form the torso of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Magnaboss (BW)#Generations|Magnaboss]]. A sticker sheet was sold at [[BotCon 2016]] to enhance Silverbolt's resemblance to the original ''Beast Wars'' figure.
| |
| | |
| :Oddly, the hand-painted [[prototype]] on display at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014 featured some coloring and detailing differences with the final product that are unique to that one sample. Even the hand painted prototype used for early [[stock photography|stock photos]] is closer to the final figure. Notably, Silverbolt's shoulders (which become Superion's hips) were painted ''red'', with the trapezoid sections in the center painted silver.
| |
| | |
| :This mold was retooled into ''Combiner Wars'' [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Generations|Cyclonus]] and [[Scattershot (G1)#Generations|Scattershot]], and [[BotCon 2016]] [[Sea Clamp#Generations|General Sea Clamp]]. Despite sharing the same toy designer and transformation scheme, ''Power of the Primes'' [[Hun-Gurrr_(G1)#Power_of_the_Primes|Hun-Gurrr]] is ''not'' a retool of ''Combiner Wars'' Silverbolt.

| :The Superion "Collection Pack" was (at least in theory) a "shared exclusive" between various online retailers (such as [[Hasbro Toy Shop]],[[Amazon (website)|Amazon]], [[BigBadToyStore]], and Entertainment Earth) and the online storefronts of major "big box" retailers (such as [[Toys"R"Us]], [[Walmart]], [[Target]], and [[Kmart]]).

Strangely, this does not include replacing the cream-white color of the ''Combiner Wars'' release with the cartoon's grayish-white color.

| :Silverbolt, Aerialbot Leader was released as part of the [[Transformers Trading Card Game]] Wave 2: Rise of the Combiners. Like all other members of [[combiner]] teams released in the set, Silverbolt, Aerialbot Leader is a folding card, with the Bot and Alt modes being depicted when the card is folded in half, and a holofoil portion of the the combined mode depicted when unfolded. The reverse of Silverbolt, Aerialbot Leader depicts [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]'s head and torso, which (as usual) is formed by Silverbolt in the artwork.
| |
| | |
| :The artwork for Bot Mode is reused from the [[Combiner Wars (franchise)|Combiner Wars]] Silverbolt toy's packaging art, and is based on said figure.
| |
| | |
| :Silverbolt, Aerialbot Leader can be used to form Superion, Sky Protector with the use of the Action card [[Enigma of Combination|Aerialbot Enigma]] while he and the other Wave 2 Aerialbots are in Bot mode on the battlefield or KO area.

| |
| | |
| ==Notes==
| |
| *Because the Superion chest plate was used with Silverbolt's robot mode so prevalently, his ''Universe'' and ''Generations'' toys incorporate details from it.
| |
| *Due to the size of his original toy's alternate mode, in that form he should be one of the biggest Transformers around (approximately 164 feet, 5 inches tall!). This means he's one of the most [[Scale|out-of-scale]] Generation 1 characters, both as a toy and in all of his depictions in fiction.
| |
| *A proposed [[Fun Publications]] [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]] idea was a redeco of [[#Universe (2008)|''Universe'' Silverbolt]] into [[Skyquake (G1)|Skyquake]]/[[Scrash (OC)|Scrash]] and [[King Atlas]].<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>
