Air Raid (G1)
From MediaWiki
| This article is about the Generation 1 Aerialbot. For the Japanese G2 Cyberjet, see Aero Raid. |
- Air Raid is an Autobot Aerialbot in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Some might call Air Raid reckless, the way he dives out of nowhere, charging enemy units head on. Air Raid would laugh at that. A rash and fearless young warrior who loves surprises (especially those that leave his foes too stunned to fight back), he has only one real goal in life: to have fun. Needless to say his attitude puts him in a lot of danger, but you can be sure he's enjoying himself the whole time.
Air Raid combines with his fellow Aerialbots to form Superion.

Universe
- Air Raid & Wind Sheer (Deluxe, 2004)
- For the Universe line, the Cyberjet Air Raid was redecoed again and released in a two-pack with the Decepticon Cyberjet Wind Sheer at the Deluxe price point. The lack of bios for Universe characters leaves open the possibility that this is not the original Air Raid. Then again, there's nothing that says it isn't, either.
