The '''Ultimate Weapon''' is a cipher. An indeterminate unknown amid a field of [[wikipedia:Unknown_unknown|known knowns]] that [[wikipedia:Schrödinger's_cat|simultaneously embodies and fails to embody]] our hopes and dreams / fears and anxieties until proven to/not-to.<br />
<br />
''It requires 2 AA batteries.''<br />

==Fiction==<br />
===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===<br />
Seeking to take advantage of [[Rodimus Prime (G1)|Rodimus Prime's]] unrelenting <strike>[[wikipedia:Emo_(slang)|emo-ness]]</strike> self-doubt, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] created a box with [[Gimmicks|blinking lights]] [[Playskool|and sounds]] and claimed it was a weapon capable of destroying [[Earth]].<br />
<br />
Galvatron hoped that the Ultimate Weapon's ''unknown'' nature would cause Rodimus to project all his anxieties and insecurities onto it. Instead the Ultimate Weapon helped Rodimus to conquer his doubts by externalizing them. Since logic dictated that if Galvatron ''had'' an Ultimate Weapon he would have used it long ago... the weapon had to be a fake. He had been coddling his own insecurities.<br />
<br />
Rodimus observed that the ''real'' Ultimate Weapon was ''the mind''.<br />
<br />
Galvatron, pissed off, broke his toy and ran away.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Interestingly enough, waaaay back when he was still [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], Galvatron talked about wanting to build himself an "Ultimate Weapon" all the time, and it took him twenty-two years and a reformatting just to make a fake one<br />
