You see that brown pattern? That's not camouflage...

Divebomb has a problem. Despite being an intelligent tactician, an excellent aerial combatant, and an otherwise model Decepticon, his reactor containment module is defective, so wherever he goes, toxic fumes go with him, and circuit-scrambling radiation waves constantly leak out. In short, he is a smelly loser whom no one likes.

Transformers (2007)

• Divebomb (Deluxe, 2008)
  • Accessories: Missile, Planet X-type Cyber Planet Key

A Wal-Mart-exclusive redeco of Cybertron Thundercracker, Divebomb transforms into a Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jet. Inserting a Cyber Planet Key into his rear fuselage pops up the back panel, revealing a spring-loaded missile launcher. This assembly becomes his left forearm in robot mode, despite being almost as long as he is tall.

This mold was also used to make the Cybertron version of Skywarp.

Trivia

• According to Hasbro designer Joe Kyde's design notes on Hasbro's Transformers website, Divebomb's camo-paint is actually based on that of a real Russian Air Force SU-37 Flanker- F prototype.
• His circuit-scrambling radioactivity and toxic fumes could be interpreted as a reference to Sunstorm.
