| The name or term "Skydive" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Skydive (disambiguation). |
- Skydive is a Maximal and an Autobot from the Beast Machines portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Skydive acts all stoic and composed, but he relishes his flying skills to the point of occasionally buzzing his fellow Maximals just to get a reaction. Not only has he got the speed and maneuverability, but unlike many fliers his technorganic hide is actually incredibly resilient to damage. Combined with his energy-gathering wings that suck up Vehicon blaster-fire to give him a constant supply of fuel, Skydive is an aerial terror.
Fiction
3H Wreckers comics
Less than 3 deca-cycles after the reformatting of Cybertron, Skydive ran recon for Snarl and Longhorn, bringing them news of the new Quintesson invasion of Cybertron. The Wreckers: Finale Part 1
Toys
Beast Machines
- Skydive (Deluxe, 2000)

Universe
- Skydive (Deluxe, 2004)
- The original Skydive mold was redecoed for release in the Universe line, changing from orange and purple to a somewhat more Dinobotty gray and red scheme. An Autobot symbol was tampographed over his spark crystal for this release.
