Fiction

Vector Prime first noticed Reachout in Aurex 503.01 Gamma, but noted that Micromaster versions of him existed in Primax 209.0 Gamma, and at least some of his compatriots exist as full-sized Autobots and Decepticons in Primax 1005.19 Gamma Ask Vector Prime

Reachout is a redeco of Cybertron Longarm, transforming into a double-crane-truck with a claw-arm and shovel. He was only available as part of the European-market exclusive "Minicon 8 Pack" box set with Buckshot, Ironside, Barrel Roll, Iron Claw, Diveplane, Heavy-Liftor, and Airlift.

This mold was also used to make Astro-Hook and Cradon.

The Minicon[sic] 8 Pack gives no indication whatsoever what continuity these eight Mini-Cons hail from. In 2015, the Facebook version of Ask Vector Prime simultaneously established the pack members as Unicron Trilogy Mini-Cons and Generation 1 sometimes-Micromasters.
The stock photography for Reachout shows him not only with his arms switched around (which honestly makes more sense in vehicle mode), but with orange-painted shoulders. The final version leaves them unpainted.
