I DON'T WANT TO EAT A GUITAR!

Longarm is a member of the Giant Planet Mini-Con Team, a gang of rebels whose main goal in life seems to be to cause trouble for the rest of the planet. Longarm is the brawn of the group, since he clearly lacks brains of any stripe. Worse yet, he has a low attention span, meaning that if he's not kept entertained he's likely to bust up whatever's close at hand and then take off. He's basically good for little more than smashing stuff, but must be kept under constant supervision to make sure he's smashing the right stuff.<ref>Profile in Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club #13</ref>

FUNNY JOKE?
  • Giant Planet Mini-Con Team (Scout-class, 2006)
Cybertron Longarm transforms into a construction truck of made-up model, with a claw-arm and crane-hook mounted on his bed. As a Mini-Con, he can attach to larger bots that have compatible Powerlinx plugs.
He was only available in a three-pack with his teammates Deepdive and Overcast, sold in the eighth wave of Cybertron Scout-class toys. This set also happens to be the final new mold-set released in the Scout assortment, and is one of several Cybertron Scout molds not sold in the Takara Galaxy Force version of the line.
This toy doubles as the Beast Wars: Uprising character Long Arm. This mold was also used to make Astro-Hook, Cradon, and Reachout.

Notes

[edit]
  • The Giant Planet Mini-Con Team's packaging marks them as Decepticon-allied, though the toys do not have any faction symbols other than the sculpted Mini-Con sigil.
  • Longarm's personality is written in reference to Strong Mad of [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Homestar Runner|{{#if:||Homestar Runner}}]], with the others filling out the remainder of the Brothers Strong.
