Tokyo Tower (東京タワー Tōkyō Tawā) is an iconic structure located in Tokyo, Japan. It is the second tallest human-made structure in the country, beaten only by the Tokyo Skytree, and it serves as a communications and observation tower.

Fiction

Generation 1

The Transformers cartoon

The Autobots used Tokyo Tower as an antenna to send Kremzeek to the Decepticons' energy magnet. Kremzeek! Tokyo Tower also was one of the first monuments scheduled to be treated with corrostop. Whether it ever was coated is unknown. Cosmic Rust

Robot Masters cartoon

Optimus Primal made his dramatic entrance and pummeled Starscream out of the sky from Tokyo Tower. He was assisted in this by Reverse Convoy, who suddenly showed up, and with whom he met up at the base of the tower. The Lio Convoy Typhoon Enters

Beast Wars II manga

On post-apocalyptic Earth, Lio Convoy and Kid had a talk while sitting on the remnants of the Tokyo Tower until the former noticed a mysterious ray of light from a chasm nearby. Infiltrate the Mystery Island!

Robots in Disguise

Robots in Disguise cartoon

The Robots in Disguise version of Car Robots takes place in Metro City rather than Tokyo. As such, the structure in "An Explosive Situation" technically is not Tokyo Tower.

X-Brawn drove up the not-Tokyo Tower to get a better view of the city and with that Predacon activity. X-Brawn was not pleased the tower's stairway was not built with cars in mind.

Some time later, X-Brawn came back down to steal an energy bomb from the Predacons, but he accidentally activated it. In order to limit the damage it could do to the city, Prowl suggested he'd take it to the highest structure he could think of. X-Brawn's thoughts immediately went to the not-Tokyo Tower, which this time he swung and towed himself to the top of, closely followed by Sky-Byte who wanted the bomb to power up the Megastar. The tower was not high enough to let the bomb detonate safely though, but Optimus Prime had a plan. He ordered X-Brawn to throw it as high as he could and from the ground, Optimus used his water cannon to send both the bomb and Sky-Byte into space. An Explosive Situation
