The Falcon Wing is a Micromaster vehicle from the Generation 1 continuity family.

The Falcon Wing is the Turbo Team's aerial assault craft.

Toys

Operation Combination

  • Sixturbo (Micromaster Sixteam, 1992)
    • Japanese ID number: TF-03
The original version Sixturbo was available only as a complete gift set in Japan. His combiner kibble can be assembled to make the Falcon Wing jet that can be piloted by a single Micromaster. The original Six-Teams are considered among the more difficult Japanese Generation 1 pieces to find.
This mold-set was also used to make Universe Defensor.


Micromaster

  • Falcon Wing (Micromaster, 2002)
In 2002, the entire Sixturbo team was re-released as part of The Transformers: Micromaster, in individual boxes with a number visible to show which mold was inside each box. For this release, all of the decals from the original version were replaced with paint applications. The Falcon Wing could only be assembled by buying all six components individually, since this version was never offered as a complete set.


  • Reverse Evolution Falcon Wing (Micromaster, 2002)
In every case of twelve Turbo Team Micromasters, two of them were solid-black-plastic "Reverse Evolution" Decepticon-allied variations. All six Micromasters —as well as their Falcon Wing kibble— were available in this manner.

Notes

  • The Falcon Wing jet was not named in the original Operation Combination series; like almost every non-combined-mode aspect of the team, the name comes from Micromaster.
  • The radar assembly that goes on the back of Sixturbo's head in Falcon Wing mode makes it excessively difficult to have a Micromaster with back-kibble pilot the jet form while pegged into the cockpit area. In the images on this wiki, Road Police is actually kneeling and leaning against the control area (aka groin) just to stay inside the set without falling through the hole in the bottom.
