- Turtler is a Decepticon Seacon from the Masterforce portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Turtler commands the mindless Seacon drones, and can combine with them to form King Poseidon. Despite being a giant turtle, he is decidedly not friend to all children. He's kind of a big dumb lug.
Fiction
Masterforce cartoon
- Voice actor: Masato Hirano (Japan)

Masterforce
- Turtler (Seacon, 1988)
- Japanese ID number: D-312
- Accessories: Blaster, sword, half-shell shield/chestplate, 2 footplates, L & R combiner fists, super robot head
- Identical to the Hasbro-release Seacon Snaptrap, Turtler transforms into a robotic tortoise. His back shell features twin reciprocating cannons activated by moving a small lever. Since he uses the Scramble City style of combination, he can be used to form the torso of any compatible super robot, though seemingly no matter the limb combination used, the super robot itself would still be "King Poseidon".
- This mold is slated to be redecoed for the Fun Publications of Snaptrap.
- King Poseidon (Gift-set, 1988)
- Japanese ID number: D-318
- Unlike the Hasbro Seacon box-set, which excludes Nautilator, the Takara King Poseidon box-set comes with all six members of the team; Turtler, Gulf, Kraken, Lobclaw, Overbite and Tentakil . The individuals are identical to their individually-boxed releases.
Trivia
- As with all the other Masterforce Seacons, Turtler is never shown to transform into his robot mode in the cartoon or manga... despite the fact that he's the only one among them who isn't a near-mindless drone. In fact, his box-art might be the only official depiction of his robot mode.
