Skids was a better sparring partner than these guys!Camshaft, The Reign of Starscream #3

Fiction

IDW Transformers (2007) comics continuity

Skids used to spar with his fellow Autobot Camshaft. He wasn't very good at it, but he was still better than Class Alpha or Class Beta drones. The Reign of Starscream #3

Merchandise

• Skids (3D Battle-Card, 2007)

A 26-point "common" character in the 3D Battle-Card Game's "Energon Wars" expansion, Skids "transforms" into a grey pickup truck of indeterminate make. He uses the same parts layout as Ironhide and Dropkick.

Notes

• Reign of Starscream writer Chris Mowry has gone on the record saying that the Skids name-drop was not referencing the Revenge of the Fallen character, but a distinct live-action continuity Skids. [1]

• According to the Battle-Card, he is equipped with a LN2 Cryo Rifle, an Electron Blaster, and a Rocket Launcher, similar to Generation 1 Skids. (Generation 1 references in the movie universe? How absurd.)
