Nudge guns are things to screw with minds from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Let's see what you can see...

This article is in need of images.

The nudge gun is Institute tech, designed to make the target Transformer think differently. It carries two charges: the first sends a foreign thought into someone's head, and the second is a blank that erases incriminating knowledge from your head. Know what I mean? Know what I mean? Nudge, nudge. Wink wink. Say no more.

  • Autobot Skids (Deluxe, 2014)
Part of the seventh wave of Deluxe Class toys in the 2012-onwards Generations line, Skids includes a weapon accessory based on the nudge gun. It can be held via 5mm post, or mounted on Skids's vehicle mode using another post on the side of the weapon. The nudge gun's barrel can also slot into the second weapon accessory, based on Skids's original liquid nitrogen rifle, to form a single, larger weapon.
