Skydive (BM)
From MediaWiki
| The name or term "Skydive" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Skydive (disambiguation). |
- Skydive is a Maximal and an Autobot from the Beast Machines portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Skydive acts all stoic and composed, but he relishes his flying skills to the point of occasionally buzzing his fellow Maximals just to get a reaction. Not only has he got the speed and maneuverability, but unlike many fliers his technorganic hide is actually incredibly resilient to damage. Combined with his energy-gathering wings that suck up Vehicon blaster-fire to give him a constant supply of fuel, Skydive is an aerial terror.
