Ricochet is Ace Riker’s main mask, worn as the driver of Slingshot, and it throws a boomerang of energy that cuts through any solid object on its way out and its way back. Matt-Trakker.com lists it as Ricochet with Boomerang in brackets, and the fan wiki explains the second name: the toy line’s original color guides called the mask Boomerang, and two episodes still use it, with Ace saying it in Quest of the Canyon and Miles Mayhem in Homeward Bound.

That makes it a mask whose working name leaked into the finished cartoon. The fan wiki lists four appearances.

Kenner packed Ricochet with Slingshot in 1986.
