Transformers (2007)

• Decepticon Reverb (Scout, 2009)
• Accessories: Quintuple-barreled Energon Weapon cannon, Decepticon-style energon chip

Part of the canceled fifth assortment of Target exclusive movie-series Scouts, Decepticon Reverb would have been a redeco of Energon Stormcloud/Blackout, transforming into an assault helicopter similar to an Apache. He could also have formed an leg or arm to any Energon-series "Powerlinx Combiner" super robot — though no super robot torsos actually came out during the original live-action movie toyline, and his packaging makes no mention of the toy's ability to combine.

He would have come with a quintuple-barreled cannon that formed a hand or footplate for his limb-modes, plus a Decepticon-style energon chip.

This mold was also used to make the Fun Publications Transformers Collectors' Club-exclusive toy Topspin and Universe (2008) Bruticus Maximus team members Vortex and Swindle.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Trivia

• Reverb's toy was first acknowledged on Hasbro's Transformers Action Figure Checklist.
• Reverb's deco was thought by many to an homage to an earlier character (Deathcobra and Waspinator were popular choices), but his colors were in fact based on Universe Cloudraker, as Joe Kyde was particularly pleased by Cloudraker's colors and wanted to re-use them on something bigger.
