- Effect (Micron Booster, 2004)
- Booster ID number: 4
- Effect uses the Air Military Mini-Con Team Gunbarrel mold, transforming into a bomber plane of undetermined model. He also has a third six-barreled cannon mode. He was available only as part of the third Micron Booster assortment, in a blind-packed, single-toy box.
Notes

- Early promotional images of the set showed Effect in a different color scheme than what was eventually produced; red and pink is remarkably different from the blue and white Effect ended up with. It is unknown if this early coloration for the Team was even possible, due to the gang-molding process the Mini-Con Teams were made with.
- No, we haven't sussed out just what the thought process behind his name is yet. It doesn't really match with the names of his "teammates" Seeker and Blitz, nor does it seem to have any connection to the source-mold's Japanese name "Glide". Your guess is as good as ours.
