- Barnstorm is a Mini-Con from the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Barnstorm is one of many power-enhancing Mini-Cons who help the Autobots search the galaxy for pure Energon, teamed up with Flashdrive and Bingo. Unfortunately, Unicron turned him into the evil Saber (セイバー Seibā).
Fiction
Ask Vector Prime
Vector Prime explained that iterations of the Elite Flying Corps often had the misfortune to encounter Unicron while scouting for energon ore. The Chaos-Bringer reformatted them into the evil Apocalypse Brigade Mini-Con Team, and thus Barnstorm became Saber, team leader and strategist. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/08/01

- Saber (Micron Booster, 2004)
- Booster ID number: 1
- Barnstorm/Saber is a chromed redeco of the Mini-Con Thunderclash, transforming into a Cybertronic gunship. He was sold as part of the third Micron Booster assortment (called "Ver.2") in Japan, in individual, blind-packed boxes so you did not know which Mini-Con you got until you opened the box and opaque black plastic bag inside. Saber was a "chase" toy, available only in every other case of twelve. In cases without a Saber in it, the space was filled with a duplicate of one of the other eleven toys in the assortment.
- This mold is also used by Flashdrive/Processor and Bingo/Triac.
Notes
- As "Saber", he was originally released in Japan with no bio info whatsoever. The American name "Barnstorm", and his bio, were created by the Transformers Collectors' Club, published on March 23, 2007. Despite the different names, they are the same character.
- His Japanese name most likely comes from "Saber", the Brainmaster component of Star Saber, as the first three Micron Booster assortment "headliners"123 have names similar to Japanese Autobot leaders/protagonists.123
