- Tidal Wave is a robot that is made up of three different aquatic vehicles, collectively called the "Dark Fleet"; an aircraft carrier, a Cybertronic double-bowed battleship, and a troop-landing craft. All three can combine to form a single gigantic warship, which from there can transform to robot mode without having to separate. Each smaller craft has its own gimmick; the carrier has a working storage elevator for Tidal Wave's Mini-Con partner Ramjet, the battleship has Mini-Con Powerlinx-activated swiveling cannons (also usable in robot mode), and the landing craft opens up to reveal seats for Mini-Cons to sit on.
Notes
- The Tidal Wave is treated as a perfectly normal spaceship in all fiction, although Timelines #10 artist Hayato Sakamoto sold a poster at BotCon 2014 depicting it in a robot mode (again based on the Armada Tidal Wave toy).
