- The airport is not at all a Decepticon Micromaster base from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Welcome to the airport! I, Airwave, hope you enjoy your stay! Just walk through that gate an- what's that you say? Those aren't guns, nope, just, uh... scanners! Nothing to see here, what? You say you can't see? That's certainly not from our control tower! Look buddy, this is just an airbase, nothin' else! Now stop nosing around!
Listen close, this ain't just an airbase, it can also transform into, get this, a BATTLE STATION! With all the guns I could ever want. Between you and me, this is the only thing keeping Megatron from blastin' me into scrap!
Toys
Generation 1
- Airwave (Micromaster Station, 1989)
- Accessories: 2 missiles, ramp
- The airport was sold in a small boxed package along with Airwave. Its ramps allow it to connect to other Micromaster bases to form larger "cities", and it features an opening garage large enough to hold a vehicle mode Micromaster. In its attack mode, it sports two orange "missile launchers" concealed beneath the ramps. Airwave can ride inside a small bunker formed by the upside-down garage. The airport is unique among the micromaster bases in that it can attach up to four ramps.
- The airport was released in Japan the following year, without changes, as the Autobot Overair's Airport Base.
Generations
War for Cybertron: Earthrise
- Airwave (Deluxe, 2020)
- ID number: WFC-E18
- Japanese ID number: ER-
- Japanese release date: 2020
- Accessories: 3-part blaster
- Part of the second wave of Earthrise Deluxes, Airwave is a "Modulator", transforming via part-forming into either a airbase with tin runways or a gun embankment, both based on the original Micromaster station. Several of his pieces have "A.I.R. Lock" connection points, which allow him to link up with other toys in the line to form larger fortifications.
- His parts can also be used to augment other figures as armor and add-on weapons, similar to the Weaponizers of the prior Siege toyline.
- Like all Earthrise toys, the inside of the back of Airwave's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read the star map.
Notes
- Referred to as an "airport" by the toy's instruction booklet, the base was redubbed an airbase by Dreamwave's More than Meets the Eye profile series.
Foreign names
- Italian: Lancer
