- Flykick is a Beastformer from the The Headmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Flykick (フライキック Furaikikku) is the premiere air combatant in White Leo's forces. He's as quick of wit as he is of flight, cracking jokes to keep his allies' mood light. Born on the Bistoram Plateau, he is Emperor of Bistoram, one of 38 countries on the planet Beast. Since White Leo's rank is given as "King of Bistoram", Emperor would appear to be the aristocratic rank below King on Beast. He can attack in mid-air with strength sufficient to shatter stone, and can fly at Mach 3 (um, presumably without dying in the process). His MVP Weapon, the Flying Typhoon, employs powerful vibrations to emit long-range shockwaves.

Flykick was a member of White Leo's rebels, fighting against the Decepticons and their allies, Alligatron and the evil Beastformers. Flykick served as the aerial component of an attack led by Big Serow on the Decepticon Beastformers' stronghold, but the evil Beasts overwhelmed the rebels and they were forced into retreat. Help soon came in the form of the Autobot Transformers, and Flykick was one of many who welcomed them. Shortly, he was in the rebel stronghold stroking his weapon.
Flykick was chosen as part of White Leo's force that set out to rescue the Decepticons' Beastformer slaves. However, they were already rescued and soon joined up with White Leo's forces, just in time to witness the Decepticon Transformers retreating from the planet. Rebellion on Planet Beast

Toys
Headmasters/Beastformers
- Flykick (Beastformer, 1987)
- Beast ID number: 4
- Accessories: "Flying Typhoon" halberd
- Part of the first series of Beastformers, Flykick is an anthropomorphic white eagle with blue robotic armor. He came with his MVP Weapon, the "Flying Typhoon" (フライングタイフン) halberd.
- His rubsign reveals one of three symbols; Fire, Water or Wood. The initial release has the symbol as a black outline against "mood ring" style color-changing backdrop. He was re-released in series three, in a new box lacking the Transformers brand marks; this release gives him a rubsign that reveals a full-color symbol on a black backdrop.
- Flykick white version (Beastformer, 1987)
- Accessories: weapon
- A solid-white version of Flykick was sold through gashapon machines in Japan. These versions of the Beastformers appear to have randomized weapons (or just crummy quality control).
Notes
- The Hasbro release of "Colonel Bird" was similarly (eventually) available with both styles of rubsign.
Foreign names
- English: Colonel Bird
