Falcon, you've come to die.
Black Shadow (ブラックシャドー Burakku Shadō) is a selfish, energy-greedy space gangster whose only reason for helping the Decepticons is to line his own pockets with energon, and he's fully prepared to betray them once he reaches his goal. A weapons engineer whose skills even impress the likes of Knock Out and Lockdown, Black Shadow has created many of the weapons wielded by Decepticons like Lockdown and Dreadwing.

- Black Shadow (Deluxe, 2015)
- ID number: TAV31
- Release date: October 24, 2015
- Accessories: 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, recon drone
- Part of the eighth wave of Takara's Adventure product (their version of the Robots in Disguise series), Black Shadow is a redeco of Generations Sky Shadow in mostly the same colors but with significantly different layouts (especially in his jet-mode striping); the mold is in turn a retool of Generations Thunderwing. He transforms into a fighter jet loosely based on an F-22 Raptor. The nose of the jet can detach and become a separate aerial drone, while the two missile launchers can detach from the wings and become hand-held weapons or clip together into one massive gun. The middle sections of the sculpted missiles on the sides of the guns are also compatible with C joint accessories.
- Black Shadow's scan-badge is applied to his left wing. Scanning this with the Transformers Chronicle app unlocks the toy in the list. The badge cannot be scanned in Robot Mode.
- This mold was also retooled into Timelines Metalhawk.
