Editing Gunrunner (G1)

:''Gunrunner is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

If there was ever an Autobot suffering from untreated post-traumatic stress syndrome, '''Gunrunner''' is it. Acting as a squadron leader during a major firefight with the Decepticons, Gunrunner mistakenly assured his comrades and subordinates that he'd get them all out alive. Instead, ''none'' survived except him, due to his [[Pretender]] armor. Because of this, Gunrunner is a seriously changed bot -- he experiences tremendous stress and insecurity if forced into combat outside of the safety of his shell, and refuses any long-term command position for fear of losing another group of close friends on the battlefield. Instead, he keeps squadrons assigned under him at arm's length, refusing to tell them "Everything'll be alright", because he can no longer be sure it will be.

==Fiction==
===IDW Comics Continuity===
Gunrunner was working out of the [[Autobot Orbital Command Hub]] when [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] received the call that [[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]] was being reactivated on Cybertron. Gunrunner was teamed with the [[Targetmaster]]s and [[Triggerbot]]s as crew of the [[Ark-27]]. Based on rank, either Gunrunner or [[Pointblank]] was likely the leader of this unit.

* '''Gunrunner''' (Pretender Vehicle, 1988)
:Gunrunner's inner robot transforms into a hypersonic jet. His Pretender shell is a Cybertronic car which he can either hide inside or operate from the driver's compartment.

:Catalogues showed Skyhammer as being colored blue-and-red instead of gold-and-red. This presumed change between prototype and actual toy has led to Skyhammer being known to suffer from [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]].
