Photon negator

My shoulder feels strangely empty.

Upon becoming an Action Master, Soundwave got a fancy new weapon with a cool name—the photon negator—which can combine with Wingthing to form a concussion cannon.

Toys

The Transformers

• Soundwave with Wingthing (Action Master, 1990)

• Accessories: photon negator

The Transformers Action Master Soundwave came with a black weapon, identified in his instructions as a photon negator... kind of, see below.

Masterpiece

• Cassettbot VS Cassettron (December 23, 2017)

• Accessories: pink tape case

A redeco of Masterpiece Ratbat, Wingthing was only available in a limited edition "Encore" Masterpiece set from TakaraTomy Mall, along with Stripes, Nightstalker, and Enemy. According to his bio, Wingthing has a photon-negator built into his eyes.

Notes

It actually looks like this.

• While Soundwave's instructions identify his weapon as a photon negator, they depict the pulse demagnetizer that was available with Treadshot instead. As a consequence, several toy information websites and identification guides (including Generations and the photograph to the right) depict Soundwave with Treadshot's weapon, using the instructions as a reference.
