[edit]- Blitz (Micron Booster, 2004)
- Booster ID number: 6
- Takara's Super Link Blitz uses the Air Military Mini-Con Team Terradive mold, transforming into a "Blackbird"-like stealth jet. He also has a third three-bladed claw mode.
- The unfortunate design flaw of the three claw/cockpit sections is that there isn't enough clearance for each claw to move past each other during transformation, meaning each claw has to be flexed past one another, causing any of them to pop off. In the worst recorded cases, the outer claw joints can crack and break. As it is a result of the overall design, it's safe to assume that every use of the mold is just as prone to breakage. Caution is advised.
- He was available only as part of the third Micron Booster assortment, in a blind-packed, single-toy box. This assortment was exclusive to Lawson stores.

Notes
[edit]
- Early promotional images of the set showed the Air Military recolors in a considerably different color scheme than what was eventually produced. Proto-Blitz had yellow parts instead of the final version's orange, and purple paint accents instead of bluish-gray.
- In February 2026, Greg Sepelak revealed that Reekon was proposed as a localized name for a Transformers Collectors' Club website bio which never came to fruition.[2] This bio identified Reekon as the female rapid-attack specialist of the Sky Scorcher Team.
