Storm Surge (04-16-09)
Transformer of the Day for April 16, 2009
STORM SURGE
-Faction: Decepticon
-Era: Movie (2007, 2009, 2011)
-Function: Aquatic Assault
-Motto: “You Will Not Survive My Surge”
-Notable Toy: Target-Exclusive (Hasbro, 2008)
Notes: Storm Surge is basically an excuse to reuse the Short Round mould in a movie-exclusive format. And yet, as moulds go, it’s nice to add to the aquatic nature of the Transformers universe, particularly given that some storylines hold that water is a substance “so rare its very existence is suspect” on Cybertron.
