- The Missile Launcher is an Autobot Micromaster Combiner Transport from the toyline portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Missile Launcher is a transformable battle rig driven and commanded by Micromaster Combiners Retro and Surge. Able to conquer the roughest and steepest terrain, it can convert to a battle platform to deploy its twin long-range missiles or split into two artillery emplacements to bombard Decepticon troops with paired gun batteries.
Toys
Generation 1
- Missile Launcher (Micromaster Autobot Combiner Transport, 1990)
- Accessories: 2 missiles, left & right guns, left & right shields/ramps
- The Missile Launcher was sold with Retro and Surge, who can connect to its front and rear ends in vehicle mode to "drive" it, or connect to each other as a smaller independent vehicle. The transport converts to a battle station with a ramp/parking spot for the combined Micromasters; it also splits into two wheeled artillery mounts, each with a compartment for a Micromaster to sit in.
Notes
- The Missile Launcher's Tech Spec is one of the most confused and confusing in all of Generation 1. If the bio is taken at face value, the Missile Launcher has a "Combiner Mode"... wherein it transforms into two Micromaster robots. These "cybernetically superior micro robots" are then commanded by two other robots, namely Retro and Surge. Yeah.
