Gigant Bomb

Gigant Bomb is a Decepticon from the Zone and then Robot Masters portions of the Generation 1 continuity family. Or it is the other way around, we can't really tell.

Gigant Bomb the space age robot! He's at your command! Gigant Bomb the space age robot! His power is in your haaaaaaaand!

A colossal Decepticon from the year 2025, Gigant Bomb traveled through the Blasty Zone to the year 2004. Joining with the Decepticons of that era and partnering with Smokesniper to form the super aircraft Gigant Sniper, Gigant Bomb is a grave threat to the Autobots. Luckily for them, his old enemies Star Saber and Victory Leo have followed him to the past!

• Gigant Bomb (2004)
  • Japanese ID number: RM14
  • Accessories: 12 missiles, "Pulverizer"

A redeco of the Generation 2 Dreadwing toy, Gigant Bomb transforms into a "flying wing" style stealth bomber with under-slung six-missile gatling cannon. He can also transform into a treaded "tank" mode. In jet form, he can combine with Smokesniper's jet mode to make a complete aircraft called Gigant Sniper.

Unique to this release is the solitarium weapon "Pulverizer", a hand-held non-firing cannon. Also, this is the only time this mold was sold separately from the smaller partner unit.

The same mold is used by BB and Dreadwind. The mold was also intended to be used for Megatron in Generation 2, but was never released. It was also repurposed for Shattered Glass Darkwind.
