| This article is about the Cyberverse Decepticon. For the Generation 1 Decepticon, see Acid Storm (G1). |
- Acid Storm is a Decepticon Seeker from the Cyberverse continuity family.
Using the ability to manipulate weather to create toxic rains, Acid Storm enjoys chasing Autobots across the world.
Fiction
Cyberverse cartoon
- Voice actor: Jaime Lamchick (English)
Acid Storm was joined by Thrust in an attempt to recover the scout ship that Windblade and Bumblebee had stolen. Windblade was able to take off before they could infiltrate the ship, and a dogfight ensued, with the two Seekers being joined by their commander Slipstream. The Seekers' assistance in the fight was short-lived, however, as the two were taken out of the fight when Windblade discovered the ship's armament array, a brace of missiles sending them spiraling down to Earth. Terminal Velocity
Toys
Cyberverse
- Acid Storm (Warrior Class, 2018)
- Cyberverse Warrior Class Acid Storm is a redeco of Warrior Class Starscream and converts from robot to jet and back. The Action Attack gimmick is activated by winding up a spring in the figure's waist and releasing the upper part of it, allowing it to spin and flip out its spring-loaded wing blades with centrifugal force. The waist can be locked in place by pegging the landing gear onto a peg on the toy's backside. Additionally, Acid Storm's forearms have non-firing Null Ray blasters molded into them, as well as 5 mm post hole hands.
- While the figure's arms have articulation comparable to other Cyberverse Warrior Class toys, it has the unusual distinction of having hip swivels molded together, meaning the front-to-back movement is in tandem. Acid Storm also lacks knees, likely due to the whole legs being cast from the same green plastic. Despite this otherwise restricted movement, the figure can splay its legs out to the sides due to hinges on the hips, allowing splits and high kicks.
- This mold was also redecoed into Thundercracker.
Notes
- As with the rest of the Cyberverse cast, Acid Storm presumably uses an evergreen design inspired by the character's Generation 1 counterpart.
- Acid Storm's bio on the Hasbro website uses male pronouns, plus the character illustration (as seen at the top of the article) uses a considerably different color scheme than the cartoon model attributed to Acid Storm in "Terminal Velocity". In this episode, the character speaks with a female voice and female voice actress, but uses the male Seeker face.
