SHADOWBAT

The Shadowbat is part of Starmada, the Shadow Force’s air and space fleet. The vehicle is described as being a battle cruiser and long range attack vehicle. MAJ. KLAG came with the Shadowbat vehicle. The Shadowbat also came with the Shadow Force Action Set. SGT. Ramor is described on the technical profile as being the ships gunner.

Two Shadow Parasites can be placed onto the Shadowbat. They lock in with magnets and will not come off, even when the Shadowbat is turned upside down. 

STANDBY MODE

BATTLE MODE

The Shadowbat is a fantastic ship that can carry a pilot, gunner, two Shadow Parasites and a vehicle or more figures in the storage compartment. Two side guns pop out when their buttons are pressed. Both cockpit canopies also open when buttons are pressed. The top gunner gun is hidden until it is flipped open (again manually). The Power Deploy happens when a large circular blue button is pressed. This opens the underside cargo department. The Shadow Invader can be placed in the storage area. When a small button on the storage ramp is pressed, the ramp ejects the Invader. As well as the Invader multiple troops can also be placed inside. 

POWER DEPLOY

The circular blue power deploy button is found at the back of the ship on the top. When the button is pressed, the cargo door opens. A vehicle can be placed inside or figures. Please check out the video below to see the vehicles power deploy and other functions. 

PARTS

The Shadowbat came with a number of parts that are often missing. It came with two side guns that flip out when a button is pressed. It came with two side guns that sit on top of the ship, and one larger gun that pops out when a panel is flipped. It also has two cockpits for the driver and gunner.
