- Jetstorm is an Autobot Aquaspeeder from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Extreme risk? Jetstorm is up for it! The youngest of the Aquaspeeders, there's nothing he loves more than charging right into the thick of things and getting his sparkplugs firing. His superiors might be a bit more down on his thrill-seeking ways if they didn't work so often. He's a smart kid, always thinking up new defensive measures sure to surprise any Decepticon unlucky enough to fall into them. Backed with a powerful and exceptionally accurate hydro-cannon, he's ready to take on any attacker.

Maaaaaaybe you shouldn't have your ammo tank be the bright yellow thing that's the tallest, least-protected part of your profile. Just a thought.

- Jetstorm transforms into a red and yellow Peugeot 405 T16 rally car. His hood section is coated in heat-sensitive paint, turning pale on contact with cold water... but with the amount of stickers on him, that's not really a good idea. He has a long water-squirting rifle that becomes his front light rack and rear spoiler in car mode.
- Jetstorm was only available in various European markets during the two-year "transitional" period marking the changeover from the original toyline to Generation 2; in the original line's final year (1993), the toys were given redesigned Autobot and Decepticon symbols, but it wasn't until 1994 that "Generation 2" appeared on the packaging.
- This mold was also used to make the Color Changer Gobots.

Generation 2
- Jetstorm (Aquaspeeder, 1994)
- Accessories: Water cannon
- This release is identical to the original, only this time in packaging specifically branded "Generation 2". This packaging variant appears to be extremely rare.
Notes
- Jetstorm's decals suggest that he's ready for the Paris-Dakar Rally, one of the world's toughest off-road endurance races. Rather fitting, as his alt-mode's real life basis won the event in 1989 and 1990.
