Games
Transformers: Dark of the Moon - The Game
Xbox 360/Sony PS3
Stratosphere was tasked with carrying home early MechTech samples for safekeeping and was intercepted by Starscream, who was ordered to destroy it. Thankfully, Stratosphere was escorted by the Aerialbots, and when Starscream had proven too potent a threat, the Aerialbots Breakaway, Silverbolt, and Air Raid exited Stratosphere's cargo area to battle Starscream. Unfortunately, after a lengthy dogfight, all three Aerialbots were defeated. Dark of the Moon (Xbox 360/PS3)
Toys
Revenge of the Fallen
- Superion (2009)
- Revenge of the Fallen Silverbolt is a redeco of Energon Storm Jet, transforming into a Cybertronic jet based vaguely upon an SR-71 Blackbird spy plane. He was available with the Revenge of the Fallen Superion giftset, and when combined with the other Aerialbots, Silverbolt forms the torso.
- The Superion five-pack was originally intended to be released as part of the 2008 Universe line as Generation 1 Superion, with Silverbolt representing G1 Silverbolt, but was ultimately only released in Universe packaging on non-US markets such as Singapore and Australia, whereas the USA, Canada and Mexico got the toy in Revenge of the Fallen packaging instead, exclusively available at Target stores in the USA and at Zellers stores in Canada, and as a mass market release in the United Kingdom. His components were not available separately, only in a combiner five-pack.
- Like the Storm Jet version of the sculpt, Silverbolt features several instances of misassembly: Namely, his inside legs are swapped so that the knee joint faces the wrong way. Furthermore, his shoulders are also misassembled, since there is a molded chevron...in his armpit. Although a swap (involving tiny pieces and springs) fixes this, at least a few specimens reportedly had one leg assembled correctly, and the other one incorrectly, making repair impossible.
Notes
- Silverbolt's Dark of the Moon video game body is a reuse of the Aerialbot Scouts from the Revenge of the Fallen game, though apparently with the large chest plate pecs removed.
- Silverbolt was reported to appear in Dark of the Moon and he was to be voiced by James Avery, but no such character appeared in the final film.
