Posted the first pictures of the Star-Burst prototype and art on their Facebook page in July 2013.[1]

Reception

The Retro Robot Radio podcast for September 21st, 2013 covered the iGear Star-Burst, Sky-Wind and Thunder-Wrath in the news.[2]

Fictional biography

Thunder-Wrath realises the best weapon is terror, and as such was very pleased when experimentation on his Cyber-soul gave him the ability to create devastatingly fearful sonic booms, which can irrationally trouble even the calmest of RoBots. Whether flying at speeds well above the speed of sound, or grounded, he can harness this power to devastating effect. For instance, in robot mode, by “charging” for a few seconds, he can release his sonic boom in waves towards his enemy, and he has even been seen to use this power in a devastating “Flash” kick, sending waves of destruction outwards. While Thunder-Wrath is by far the most talented flier in the RoCon army, he lacks the guile of Star-Burst and the ruthlessness of Sky-Wind, but he has easily gained the respect of the low-level seekers who serve under the triumvirate of seeker generals.
