Terradive is an Autobot from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
I was such a good spy for Planet X, even Hasbro didn't know about it! Soon, Gigantion, soon! AHAHAHAA!

Terradive is one of the five Air Team robots who make up the legendary super robot Superion Maximus. Who knows what mysterious thoughts lurked inside his gun-turret head? One would think he'd be prone to migraines. Alas, Terradive, we hardly knew you.

Fiction

[edit]

Energon cartoon

[edit]

When the current Decepticon leader Megatron discovered a hidden chamber and four ancient, towering guardians, he destroyed one of the Autobot guardians, reactivating the ones that remained and revealing the Super Energon pool they had been guarding for countless years. Ambition Superion Maximus awoke to find his brother dead, with the Decepticon leader claiming the Super Energon for himself, absorbing its power to become Galvatron. Superion tried to stop him to no avail, so he split up into the Air Team and escaped, with Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus in hot pursuit. Wishes

During a virtual training match between the Autobots and Decepticons, Terradive was part of Storm Jet's Air Team, fighting the Destruction Team and the Construction Team. The Autobots combined into Superion Maximus to take one both Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus, but were eventually defeated. Distribution

Superion Maximus flew in his component vehicle modes as the Autobots made their way through the maze-like routes beneath Cybertron's surface. The Omega Train

Terradive and the Air Team had their revenge against the Destruction and Construction teams during a final showdown with the treacherous Decepticon combiners. Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus double-teamed Superion Maximus, who held his own, managing to briefly fend off Bruticus before crushing Constructicon's spark. However, Bruticus Maximus recovered and destroyed Terradive and the other three Superion limbs, leaving Storm Jet alone. Spark

Terradive was never referred to by name, nor was he ever presented as a sentient, individual being. Most of his appearances were as the left arm of Superion Maximus.

Toys

  • Superion (Multi-pack, 2004)
Takara's Super Link Skydive shares a mold with his teammate Sling, transforming into a blue and white A-10 Thunderbolt II. In jet mode, his robot head's adjustable "goggles" visor acts as an under-slung (non-firing) double-gun pod. His included energon star can be placed onto the spark crystal on his chest/between the rear turbines or given to other figures.
Skydive can form an arm or leg to any Energon-style "Powerlinx Combiner" super robot, though his nominal placement is as the left arm to Superion. In limb mode his shield/cannon weapon forms either a foot or a weird two-thumbed padde-fingered hand.
All five members of Superion were only available in the Takara Super Link line as part of a complete super-robot multi-pack, released in the sixteenth wave of toys.
This mold was also used to make Fun Publications Transformers Collectors' Club-exclusive Cybertron Skyfall; the 2008 Universe toyline's Superion components Skydive and Fireflight, as well as the identical Target-exclusive Revenge of the Fallen Superion components Skydive and Fireflight


Oh me head...
  • Terradive (Energon Class, 2004)
The Hasbro release of Terradive was sold on an individual card, in the seventh wave of Energon "Energon Class" (aka "Basic") toys.
Terradive is largely identical to Takara's Skydive; the most notable difference is that his his clear-blue plastic is a lighter shade, and Terradive has the gear-shaped "Powerlinx" symbol printed on both wings, a detail Skydive lacks.

Universe (2003)

[edit]
  • Terradive (Basic Class, 2005)
  • Accessories: Shield/double-cannon, Autobot energon chip
Terradive was re-released in rebranded Universe packaging and sold through discount chains in the U.S. like Dollar General.
No mention of his combining ability is made on the cardback, probably due to his mold-mate Sky Shadow not being released in this way, making the team incomplete for Universe.
