Stormcloud's Minicon socket is underneath the vehicle in the middle of the toy. He's automatically earning points by providing a missile launcher upgrade to a larger toy but it comes at a cost as he's got a pointed prow which gives him a sort of upside down triangular look when mounted on a flat surface or a Minicon peg. You get the missile launcher but you do get the odd shape which can't be anything other than a boat too.
TF: Pull the front of the boat out to the sides and down a bit. Fold the back of the boat down to become the legs.
Unlike the rest of the Sea team Stormcloud doesn't have his missile launcher arm mounted in robot mode. Instead it's on his back. It can be folded down to give extra support or over his head to be fired forward. His legs - despite first appearances - do separate allowing him to bend independently at both knee & hip. In addition the shoulders shrug up at the body and have a ball joint connecting them to the arms. The arms also have an elbow joint on them which is much more solid than those seen on the Street Speed team.
OK boat, poor add on despite the launcher but good robot.
Original Review:
"These should not be good. They're boats, they're a brick orange colour, and they've got lilac missiles. And yet somehow they're great ! The ball Missiles help....
Stormcloud
A speedboat. In fact bar the black paint job this is Nightboat, the crime solving boat ! The missile launcher on this pivots back and forth on the boat and up and down, no sideways movement. As with all the port is underneath the vehicle. The front splits and pulls to the sides to form the arms, back folds backwards to become the legs. Hips, knees, elbows, and ball jointed shoulders PLUS a missile launcher which can either hang on his back or pear turret like (ala Hotshot) over his head. Fun !
I dunno, I just like these 3 - I think they're fun and work better than you think the missile launcher on a boat idea should. "
Rust brown becomes blue and lilac becomes grey, Much improved overall these colours help to emphasise that Waterlog is in fact a Minicon version of Seaspray. Given that Oceanglide is obviously meant to be Powerglide (especially in the original colours) what does that make Stormcloud ? Given the 1985 Minibot connections of the other two I suggest looking these as well - and the obvious choice is Beachcomber both for the blue & grey colourscheme and the sea related name.
Much improved. The name is good for a Speedboat (as in travelling at a rate of knots)
Original review: "The business. A purple that matches Tidal Wave, and makes the boys look rather evil. Get them "
Bilge has sandy & red painted highlights. Not my favourite version of the toy. Bilge comes with DVD volume 9.
Mile has some orange highlights on the his robot chest & forearms. Mile is Micron Booster V1 toy number 9.
