- Tiptop is a Decepticon-allied Nebulan from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Tiptop was a renowned strongman with the Traveling Three-Sphere Circus of Nebulos, until his own carelessness led to his downfall. He blamed others for his misfortune, however, and joined the Decepticons to get back at them.
Binary-bonded with Quake, Tiptop became a Targetmaster capable of transforming into a gyroscopic de-stabilizer rifle that unbalances its targets. Tiptop can't stand Quake's other partner, the smarmy and shiftless Heater.
Toys
Generation 1
- Quake w/ Tiptop and Heater (Targetmaster, 1988)
- Tiptop, like all the "double" Targetmaster Nebulans, is one of the smallest and least complicated Transformers. Fold the barrel away, and stand him up. He was released with the Decepticon Quake in 1988. No version of this character or mold was released in Japan.
Notes
- Neither Tiptop nor Heater make an explicit appearance in the Marvel comic, but Quake's tank mode has extra gun on his toy's Targetmaster hardpoint in issues 75 and 80. In issue 80 the extra gun looks like a simplified Heater design and his main turret might be Tiptop. Whether or not these are genuine appearances of Quake's Targetmasters is unclear.
