This article is about a character or concept which lacks any official name or designation. |
- The Gats Blocker Autobot is an Autobot from the Dreamwave portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The "Gats Blocker Autobot" doesn't get the appreciation he deserves.
Fiction
Dreamwave Generation One continuity
The Gats Blocker Autobot was at the Forum of Enlightenment when the Decepticons blew it up. The War Within #2
Notes
- This Autobot character is based on the Gats Blocker[1] (ガッツブロッカー) toy from the Diaclone line that was never brought over into The Transformers toyline. It was, however, released outside of Japan by Takara itself in the Diakron line as Multi-Force 14 Robot.[2] The toy itself is black and red, whereas the comic colouration of the Transformer makes him look like Generation 2 Superion.
- Gats Blocker Autobot's size and era of existence in the comics doesn't make it likely he's a 14-piece combiner. Bugger!
References
- ↑ The 1980 Diaclone packaging used the English spelling "GATS BLOCKER". Many Western fans interpret the name as "Guts Blocker". Your mileage may vary.
- ↑ Guts Blocker was also released by Grandstand in the United Kingdom in Convertors as Alphatron, by Joustra in France in Diaclone as Multi-Force 14, and by GiG in Italy in Diaclone as Dai-Gats.
