| This article is about the heroic Decepticon that may or may not be a Powermaster. For his evil Powermaster counterpart, see Darkwing. For a list of other meanings, see DarkwinX (disambiguation). |
- Darkwind is a heroic Decepticon from the "Shattered Glass" continuity family.
Darkwind is a heroic Decepticon who forms a comedic duo with his equally jovial friend Dreadwind.
Fiction
Shattered Glass
The Autobots decided they didn't appreciate the duo's feel-good comedy tours of slapstick gags and their signature "Who's Got the Touch?" routine, so they had Darkwind and his stage partner Dreadwind executed. Totally downer punchline. Around Cybertron #5
Toys
Robot Masters
- Gigant Bomb (2004)
- Japanese ID number: RM14
- Accessories: 12 missiles, "Pulverizer"
This toy was repurposed from Gigant Bomb.
- A redeco of the Generation 2 Dreadwing toy, Gigant Bomb transforms into a "flying wing" style stealth bomber with under-slung six-missile gatling cannon. He can also transform into a treaded "tank" mode. In jet form, he can combine with Smokesniper's jet mode to make a complete aircraft called Gigant Sniper.
- Unique to this release is the Solitarium weapon "Pulverizer", a hand-held non-firing cannon. Also, this is the only time this mold was sold separately from the smaller partner unit.
