- Accessories: Anti-tank cannon partner, particle beam cannon
- Known designers: Masakatsu Saito (concept artist)
- Part of the initial assortment of carded Action Master figures packed in with Grimlock, the anti-tank cannon is a small treaded drone unit that can be ridden by most Action Master figures, though its fairly small size makes it so the figures have to squat to do so, which leaves them both very back-heavy and very funny-looking.
- The anti-tank cannon unfolds via spring-loaded gimmick to form a really big hand-held long-range mortar launcher, completed by plugging Grimlock's particle beam cannon weapon into its barrel (though any Action Master weapon will also do).
