Ionic Pulse Launcher

Big things can come in small packages, and the Ionic Pulse Launcher is a great example of that. Also called the Eaglefire Missile Launcher, this weapon is capable of firing extremely powerful pulses/missiles/pulse missiles that are capable of creating earthquakes on impact. When not used to devastate landscapes and blow its targets into millions of tiny chunks, the launcher can be used as a rocket engine for limited flight capability.
It can be a very destructive weapon in the wrong hands, so it is perhaps a good thing that Optimus Prime, the noble Autobot leader, is the one who wields the launcher. In fact, he wields two of them, so that must mean he's twice as noble.

- Part of the first wave of Prime: Beast Hunters Voyager Class toys, Optimus Prime comes with two spring-loaded, missile-firing "Ionic Pulse Launchers" (called "Eaglefire Missile Launchers" in the instructions). The launchers each feature a 5mm post, have flip open prods, and they can peg onto 5mm ports for each of his hands, one on his backpack, one near each of his front wheels, and one on each of his two upper wings. Additionally, pegging them near the wheels on his robot back gives him a pair of back-mounted rocket engines.
