- Mini-Con 12-Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
- Cloudraker is a redeco of Classics Divebomb, transforming into an AH-64D Longbow Apache assault helicopter.
- He was only available as part of a K-Mart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Brimstone, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, Skyhammer, and Suppressor.
- This mold was also used to make Torque Gain, Henkei! Vortex, and Universe Crosshairs.
- "Cloudraker (Mini-con, 2010)
- Cloudraker was one of only three variants among single packed versions of the Universe 12 pack Mini-cons released in the UK. Instead of having all four of his rotor blades on a single piece, this version has two on top of two, allowing the rotors to be rotated parrallel for ease of packaging. This makes him the only retool of the set. Whether he's easier to stand up in this form remains to be seen.
Notes
- While both the instructions and official art depict Cloudraker's robot mode with the legs hanging loosely from his upper body, the tabs on his lower body fit neatly into slots on his legs, creating a marginally more cohesive robot mode.
- Good luck getting him to stand up though
