: Part of the second wave of ''[[Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Voyagers, "Decepticon Dropshot" is a [[Redeco|redeco]] of [[Scattorshot#CybDef|Cybertron Defense Scattorshot]], transforming into a [[wikipedia:TOS-1|TOS-1 Buratino]] multiple-launch rocket system. The halves of the (non-firing) launcher end up on his arms in robot mode. In either mode, inserting a [[Cyber Planet Key]] in each half reveals a new weapon: one side has a pull-out double spring-loaded missile launcher, while the other has a flip-out non-firing blaster barrel.  He also comes with an extra long hand-held rifle that can be mounted in tank mode thanks to his [[Mini-con]]-compatible [[Powerlinx]] plugs.
 
: His box photo shows an opaque-brown [[Earth]] Key with tan paint. The toy actually comes with an entirely unpainted transparent-brown Earth Key.
 
:This mold was also used to make ''Universe'' [[Overload (Armada)|Overload]] and ''[[Timelines]]'' [[Flak]].

==Trivia==
* Dropshot's toy has tech spec numbers and a general attitude that indicates he was likely intended to be the original [[Micromaster]] [[Dropshot (G1)|Dropshot]].  However his only fiction appearance is in a continuity in which that'd be extremely unlikely, since that other Dropshot exists [[Gorlam Prime|elsewhere]] concurrently under odd circumstances.  It's [[T-Wrecks|happened]] [[Grimlock (G1)|before]].
