The name Storm Jet was used again on a space shuttle Micromaster as part of the Aerialbot team and forms an arm to the teams combined form Superion.

The Micromaster toy packaging was lacking in bios and no official bio has been released from Hasbro. This Storm Jet may be either of the previous two Storm Jets, Raker or a completely new character.

A rough translation of Raker's Japanese tech spec: Raker excels in outer space combat and can make atmospheric re-entry under his own power. He specializes in diving attacks from high altitudes. A real flirt, he has frequently fallen into crises through his relations with femmes.

According to the story for Berserker Sixwing, a computer virus briefly turned the Sixwing team into Decepticons.

Note: The name Raker seems to be a play on the name of the space shuttles seen in the James Bond film Moonraker.

Famous quotes containing the word universe:

    For the universe has three children, born at one time, which reappear, under different names, in every system of thought, whether they be called cause, operation, and effect; or, more poetically, Jove, Pluto, Neptune; or, theologically, the Father, the Spirit, and the Son; but which we will call here, the Knower, the Doer, and the Sayer. These stand respectively for the love of truth, for the love of good, and for the love of beauty.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
