Skyhammer (PCC)
From Transformers Wiki
The name or term "Skyhammer" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Skyhammer (disambiguation). |
- Skyhammer is a Decepticon Commander from the Power Core Combiners portion of the movie continuity family.
Skyhammer is the master of the elements. Together with his Mini-Con Airlift, he manipulates weather itself, turning it against the Autobots in the form of wind, rain, and lightning-filled thunderstorms. Once his enemies have been worn down by this unnatural assault, Skyhammer descends from the skies to deal the final blow personally.
Toys
Power Core Combiners
- Skyhammer with Airlift (Commander Class, 2011)
- Known designers: Eric Siebenaler (Hasbro), Takashi Kunihiro (TakaraTomy), Andrew Scribner (deco artist)
- Part of the fourth wave of Power Core Combiners Commander Class figures, Skyhammer is a Scout-sized toy, transforming into a Su-35 fighter jet. Skyhammer can also transform into a super-robot torso, so that he can serve as the core for Power Core Combiner drones sold separately. Similarly to Sledge, Skyhammer does not feature a different "torso mode" head; instead, an aviator's helmet covers his standard head to form the combiner's head. He came with his Mini-Con partner Airlift.
- Wave 4 only barely made it out to normal retail at first, meaning most fans had to get him from online stores. At the back end of 2011, the later Power Core Combiners started showing up at discount chains, and then by late November, Toys"R"Us got a fairly large amount of the wave 4 and 5 2-packs.
- This mold was also used to make Airmaster.
- Power Core Combiners Value Pack (Value Pack, 2011)
- Skyhammer and Airlift were made more readily available at retail as part of a Walmart-exclusive Black Friday "Value Pack", combining a 5-pack team with a Commander 2-pack via packaging tape and a couple of stickers.
