Suppressor is a Decepticon-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family (via the 2008 Universe line).

Suppressor is no doubt the most powerful member of the Ransack Team. While he's not quite as skillful as Blight or as strong as Brimstone, he matches or outclasses his teammates in nearly all other areas. It wouldn't be surprising if Suppressor is in fact the leader of the team, but this is unconfirmed. If he's not, he probably should be.<ref>Suppressor's single-carded Tech Specs.</ref>


Toys

Universe (2008)

[edit]
  • Mini-Con Class 12 Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
  • Series: Armada Series
  • Known designers: Joe Kyde (deco artist){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}
Universe Suppressor is a redeco of Classics Firebot, transforming into a "hazmat"-decoed crash-response Oshkosh Striker 1500 truck with twin water-cannons on top. As a Mini-Con, he has a "Powerlinx" socket that allows him to attach to larger toys with compatible Powerlinx plugs.
He was originally available as part of a Kmart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack, along with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Brimstone, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, and Skyhammer.
This mold was also used to make Buckshot.


  • Suppessor (Mini-Con, 2009)
  • Series: Armada Series
Suppressor was also sold on an individual cardback through discount chains like Big Lots! in the US. This release is otherwise identical to the multi-pack version.


  • Suppressor (Candy toy, 2010)
In the UK, all twelve Mini-Cons from the original "Mini-Con Class 12 Pack" set were released in individual blind-packed bags with "energon fizzy jellies" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd.
This version of Suppressor is actually a new tooling with numerous tiny differences from the original, but is functionally the same toy. These changes include a thicker Mini-Con sigil print, altered production stamping (removing "Hasbro China" and "Takara" from them in favor of just "Hasbro"), smaller pin-heads on the steel connector pins, and generally less crisp molding.
