- Talon is a Decepticon Predator from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Talon is the Predators' advance fighter. Strong and vicious, what he lacks in intelligence he more than makes up for with his sheer strength and his foul temper. He likes to drop suddenly out of the sky to blast his grounded enemies.
- French-Canadian name: Griffe
Toys
Generation 1
- Talon (Small Predator, 1992)
- Accessories: Missile launcher, 3 missiles
- Talon transforms to a McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle fighter jet, and is equipped with a missile launcher, usable in both modes. His wings have pegs to store his two extra missiles.
- As a Predator, he features a Megavisor gimmick that lets him attach to Skyquake and Stalker, showing an image through those toys' viewfinders. Talon's Megavisor slide shows a schematic vehicle mode image of Thunder Clash.
- This toy was also available in Japan as the character Moon Jet.
Trivia
- Talon's slide image is labeled with several text pointers, at least one of which is an easter egg of sorts. The labels read "HAS-BRO", "MA-SA", "E-JI MA", and possibly "DK-P-MI" (this last label is trickier to read).
