[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'s '''orbit disruptor cannon''' is, as you might imagine, a cannon which disrupts orbits.  Any affected object will immediately cease orbiting its parent object and fly off into space.  Its size means that the combiner [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] is required to operate it, although it also has, for reasons unknown, a control panel at human height.  And a large button marked "OVER LOAD".

===Generation 1 cartoon===
Behold Megatron's plan:
#Use the orbit disruptor to knock [[Earth]]'s [[Moon (moon)|Moon]] out of its orbit.
#Control the world's tides with a device [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] made.
#Flood one canyon.
#???
#Nearly limitless power!

Unfortunately, before Megatron could put his plan into effect, there was a slight hitch in the form of the loss of Bruticus.  After the combiner's defeat at the hands of [[Defensor (G1)|Defensor]], [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]] had sold off most of the rest of his team as parts.  There was a short delay while Swindle was sent to recover the parts, with a bomb in his head as an incentive.

Once Bruticus was reassembled, Megatron decided to test-fire the orbit disruptor on [[Ark (G1)|Autobot Headquarters]].  The cannon was set up outside Autobot HQ, though more technical difficulties with Bruticus meant that the [[Decepticon]]s were forced to fight the [[Autobot]]s without it.  During the battle, a [[B.O.T. (robot)|human-controlled robot]] took control of the orbit disruptor cannon, turning it on the Decepticons before hitting the cannon's overload button.  That pretty much spelled the end of Megatron's plan.
