Fistfight (G1)

This article is about the evil Decepticon. For the good Decepticon from Shattered Glass, see Fistfight (SG).

Fistfight is a Decepticon Action Master partner from the Generation 1 continuity family.

He's called Fistfight, but he usually just clamps people in the groin.

Fistfight is the Targetmaster "droid" partner to Shockwave. A sadistic little bugger, when he's not serving as a heavy-artillery "lightning rifle" for Shockwave, he's carefully dissecting late-model cars.

The Action Master partner robots were given the "Targetmaster" classification retroactively by Dreamwave's More Than Meets The Eye profile series.

Toys

Generation 1

• Shockwave with Fistfight (Action Master, 1990)

Fistfight is a black and purple "droid" unit that was only available with Action Master Shockwave. Pressing a trigger on his top flips up a spring-loaded (non-firing) cannon from his main body. Fistfight can bend backwards at the spine to form a large "lightning cannon" mode. He can be held by any Action Master figure, and his barrel can attach any carded Action Master's hand-held weapon as an extension.

Notes

• Like the similarly-designed Glitch, Fistfight's robot arms come off fairly easily, though the fit is tight enough to keep them in place normally. Nonetheless, this can lead to them being easily lost.
