This article is about the Kreon Micro Changer. For the character(s) she is based on, see Slipstream (disambiguation).
Slipstrike is a Decepticon from the brick-based world of Kre-O.

Slipstrike is probably not a nice lady.

Fiction

Kre-O comic

Slipstrike attended Starscream's unveiling of a statue built in his image. Enter the New Emperor of Destruction!? Stop Galvatron's Rampage!

Toys

Kre-O

  • Slipstrike (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2014)
    • Collection: 4
    • Bag number: ***** 43
    • Accessories: Stand-brick, 2 clip-on rifles
Part of the fourth assortment of blind-bagged Kreon Micro-Changers, Slipstrike is a Kreon figurine that can be rebuilt into a jet. Sadly, later releases of this series dropped the individual-Kreon-identifying number stamps, which thanks to the gigantic thick instruction sheet this wave came with, makes finding her by the "bag feel" method much trickier. These Kreons all have the 2014 slight retooling to their arms, making the cuffs less rounded and better-suited to being used as studs.
In 2016, Dollar General stores got a new run of this Collection under a new UPC & code-stamp (60041). While this re-release still uses the 2014 Kreon body (Collections 1 & 2 in this UPC use the new 2015 Kreon body), this release of Slipstrike has much brighter lavender accent paint on her torso than the original.
She uses the Starscream helmet.

Notes

  • Slipstrike's deco is based directly on Animated Slipstream.
  • Her stock photography shows her vehicle mode with the wings swept-forward, which matches Animated Slipstream. However, the instructions tell you to attach them so they swing back (as shown above).
