The name Jetstorm was first used in the Transformers toyline on two different toys released on two different continents; however both characters were Aquaspeeders - toys that could shoot water from their weapon and had parts which changed color when they came in contact with water, a gimmick never again seen in the toyline.
The first Transformers toy with the name Jetstorm was a 4WD vehicle and was released in America. This toy was of the Deluxe size but as was typical of many newly created Transformers toys at the time, it was incredibly simple - as a robot, Jetstorm could only move his arms at his elbows and his legs were completely immobile.
His character profile indicates he is a bully and despised because of his insistence on getting his own way all the time. However, his expertise at coordinating his unit has kept the Decepticon from dismantling him - for now.

Famous quotes containing the word generation:
“Most women of [the WW II] generation have but one image of good motherhood—the one their mothers embodied. . . . Anything done “for the sake of the children” justified, even ennobled the mother’s role. Motherhood was tantamount to martyrdom during that unique era when children were gods. Those who appeared to put their own needs first were castigated and shunned—the ultimate damnation for a gender trained to be wholly dependent on the acceptance and praise of others.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
