Notes

• Maverick is named after Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, the lead character of the Top Gun films.
• Maverick is the only known Collaborative figure to not feature G1-Styled packaging, rather giving it a more militaristic look inspired by an aircraft carrier.
• The dog tags on Maverick's packaging feature two dates: May 26, 1986, the theatrical release date of Top Gun; and June 26, 2020, the planned release date of Top Gun: Maverick. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Maverick was delayed to December 23, 2020, meaning the packaging was already out of date by the time the toy was announced.
