Timelines "Decepticon Pirate Cannonball" is a retool of Prime Ratchet in black and gold with a new head, transforming into a truck. He has a "dramatic head reveal" gimmick, with his robot mode head being spring-loaded to pop up once his "backpack" is pulled down and features 5mm peg-holes for his hands, a pair on his front bumpers/shins, and a pair on his vehicle roof. He comes with a pair of blades that can mount/be held via 5 mm post, and his hands can be swung down at the wrist to give the appearance of the blades sprouting out of his wrists. The blades can mount into the peg-holes on his front bumper, creating a battle mode, or store on tabs underneath the vehicle mode. Cannonball comes in a box set with fellow pirates Ferak, Tornado, Scorponok, and Olin Zarak, plus knights Ginrai and Devcon.

The initial concept for Pirate Cannonball utilized the Prime Wheeljack mold instead. A large number of the toys suffered from assembly errors, which led to the obvious potential of a redeco as Red Alert never being seriously considered.

This mold was also used to make 2014 Transformers Protectobot First Aid.
