Divebomb (Energon)
From MediaWiki
| The name or term "Divebomb" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Divebomb (disambiguation). |
- Divebomb is a Terrorcon in the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy.
Divebomb has no glaring weaknesses, although his desire to retreat when things get ugly is not a characteristic highly valued by his field commander Scorponok (though it REALLY should be). More than any other Terrorcon, he has a better sense of when to pull his troops before they get toasted. A driven and fierce warrior, he is armed with razor-sharp energon blades that combine into a giant, boomerang-type weapon. He transforms into a robotic hawk with VTOL turbines in its wings.

- Divebomb (Basic, 2004)
- Japanese ID number: SD-08
- Accessories: 2 Energon blades, Energon star
- Divebomb transforms into a white, robotic hawk with translucent green energon blade pieces attached to his neck and an energon star attached onto his spark crystal. He has articulation in his beast legs as well as where the wings meet the body. The wings can further open up to reveal translucent green energon "feathers". Divebomb has an unusual transformation sequence, that might remind you of the Aegis gundam, which has his beast head and neck become his robot mode arms (with the beast legs ending up on the shoulders), while his beast wings become his robot legs. The energon blade pieces can be held in both hands as either blades or guns, and both parts can be combined together to form a sort of boomerang.
- A running change was made to the edged part of the weapon, which sports a standard 5mm handle even though the instructions show the part with a sharp edge.
- Shadow Hawk Cosmo Type (Basic, 2004)
- Japanese ID number: SD-13

- This redeco of Divebomb was a somewhat-limited retail release during Superlink. The character was known in the American Energon cartoon as Blackout, but was never released by Hasbro as part of the Energon toyline.
