| This article is about the Mini-Con A-10 plane. For the autobot Ultra Pretender, see Skyhammer (G1). |
- Skyhammer is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family (via the 2008 Universe line).
Skyhammer is a member of the Decepticon-allied Overcast Team. His alt-mode bears an uncanny resemblance to a Cobra Rattler,[1]
but there is no evidence that Cobra even exists in Skyhammer's universe, so this may be a coincidence.
Toys
Universe (2008)
Armada Series
- Mini-Con 12-Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
- Skyhammer is a redeco of Classics Steel Wind, transforming into an A-10 "Thunderbolt" ground attack plane.
- He was only available as part of a K-Mart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Brimstone, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, and Suppressor.
- This mold was also used to make Skyglide.
Trivia
- Skyhammer is the only Transformer toy intended to look like a Rattler, but the character has no known connection to Cobra. Thundercracker and Skywarp have both spent time as Rattlers under Cobra's control, but those forms have never been made into toys. Someday, Hasbro?
