- Gimlet is a Maximal and Predacon Jointron from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Gimlet (ギムレット Gimretto) is the youngest of the Jointron brothers and the dancing fool of the group. He loves to jump and party-about to the music of his older brother, DJ. Gimlet is a Maximal who never gets down even in the worst situation. Instead he just likes to party and have a good time and see what happens next. During peacetime he dedicates himself to competitive sports, and during wartime treats that like a sport and keeps score of the Preds he's downed. Just like his other brothers, he mixes bad Spanish in with his sentences, often-times making it hard to tell what he’s getting at. Instead, he lets his rhythm speak for him.
Gimlet can join with his fellow Jointrons to form Tripledacus.
