Skyjack met with her fellow Autobot High Council members to discuss the imminent fruition of their plans, and silently watched as Cyclonus and Cyberwarp debated the morality of the Council's actions. Enemy of My Enemy
At Cyclonus' order, she activated the Space Bridge to ready the invasion before the Bee Team broke in and engaged them in combat. After one-on-one combat failed, with Skyjack being knocked out of the sky by Sideswipe, the Decepticons combined into Galvatronus but were ultimately defeated due to Cyberwarp's reservations.

Robots in Disguise (2015)
- Galvatronus (Team Combiner, 2017)
- Available only in the Galvatronus Team Combiner 5-pack, Skyjack transforms into a Cybertronian VTOL-pod in a few simple steps. In vehicle mode, she has a 5mm post-hole on her roof to mount accessories and Weaponizer Mini-Cons. She can also convert into an arm for any Team Combiner super-robot, though her nominal placement is as the left arm of Galvatronus.
- Skyjack uses the universal connector joint shared by all Team Combiners and Crash Combiners, but since she can only form an arm in combined mode, this can lead to some interesting-looking combinations.
- She is a retool of her teammate Cyberwarp, with a different headsculpt. There is a mismatch between the pair's decos: Skyjack's art shows her with green piping, but the toy has yellow, while Cyberwarp has the reverse issue. You can try to correct this by knocking out the pin and swapping heads, but good luck with that.
