Transformers
Transformers: Generation 1
Available in 1993, but only in Europe, was another, different Jetstorm toy also of the Deluxe size. This character was an Autobot who transformed into a rally car. Although considered simple compared to many Transformers of the same size, Jetstorm is at least able to bend his legs at his knees as well as at his elbows unlike the Decepticon Jetstorm, however this is most likely only because his transformation requires it.
His biography indicated that he was a strategy expert and highly intelligent, however he was described as impetuous and brash. He is brilliant at devising new defense methods against the Decepticons.
This character has not appeared in any fiction.

- Beast Machines Ultra Jetstorm (2000)
- The Ultra Jetstorm toy was redecoed slightly in Japan to make it more show-accurate. Much like the original G1 Scattershot, Jetstorm has an obscene robot mode when the nose section of his jet mode is pointed forward instead of being folded in the back. It was also repainted as the BotCon exclusive Cyclonus, who appeared in the Transformers: Universe - Wreckers comic series.
- Fans have compared the jet mode design with the VF-19 Excalibur Variable Fighter of the Macross series, and because of its leg configuration, it is possible to transform Ultra Jetstorm into Gerwalk mode.[2]
