Have you seen me?

When a unit of Autobots needs to get somewhere fast, they turn to Stratosphere. His cargo plane mode can transport an entire team half way around the globe and then supply high-altitude covering fire when they get there.

*Looking at Stratosphere's feet* "Hey! My eyes are up here, pal!"

• Stratosphere (2009)
  • Japanese ID number: RA-17
  • Accessories: Optimus Prime mini-figure.

Stratosphere transforms into a military transport plane which is an amalgamation of a C-17 Globemaster III, the cockpit of a C-5 Galaxy and the tail of an Antonov An-225. The little (transforming) Optimus Prime mini-figure fits into the cargo hold in the aft section of the plane, and can deploy from the ramp by rotating his tail fins.

Sadly, Optimus cannot fit in the cargo hold while Stratosphere is in robot mode, so he must be gently held and cradled by Stratosphere like a tiny war machine.

Notes

Oh if only....

• Stratosphere was originally going to come with a Space Shuttle accessory that would have plugged into the hole between his plane-mode wings that would serve as his robot-mode weapon. Despite making it all the way to the test shot phase, this was ultimately removed from the final production piece.
• Stratosphere is based upon the same plane that dropped Optimus Prime to attack Demolishor in the movie.
• If he were to make it into an official movie storyline, Stratosphere would be the biggest Transformer to have appeared in the series (what with the issue of scale and all).
