Airwave (Micromaster)

Airwave is a Decepticon from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Check out the face on his chest. He's like robo-Kuato.

If crime didn't pay, Airwave would be out of a job. Before the Cybertronian Civil Wars, he was an airbase inspector, charged with finding and reporting stolen and contraband goods...but if you greased his palm a little, he gladly looked the other way. When the Decepticons started their smuggling operation, Airwave happily signed on - as long as Megatron kept letting him play the black market. Eventually, he was put in charge of a Decepticon airbase, and proved himself an able (if a tad sadistic) commander. However, his petty scams and swindles have earned him the emnity of his fellow Decepticons, who'd gladly sell him for scrap if Megatron didn't need him.

  • Airwave (Micromaster Base, 1989)
Airwave transforms into into a Grumman F-14D Tomcat fighter jet. He was sold with an airport base, which could transform into a missle base and connect with other Micromaster bases via modular ramps.
This mold was released without changes in Japan as Overair, and was also used to make Decepticon Nightflight and Autobot Nightflight.
