The name or term "Steamhammer" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Steamhammer (disambiguation).
Steamhammer is a Decepticon or unaligned Transformer from the live-action film series and Generation 1 continuity families (via the Power Core Combiners line).
"No, I said, "Steamed Hams"".

Steamhammer doesn't give two slags that there's another "Constructicon" team in the Decepticon ranks. His Constructicons make him strong enough to beat up anyone who stands in his way, and that's all that really matters.

Fiction

2005 IDW continuity

Steamhammer was a member of Mayhem who scooped up Springer while in vehicle mode, leading Verity Carlo to pursue them. As Carnivac attempted to use the Wrecker to kill the anti-Cybertronian demagogue Megan Guigilone, the human later revealed herself to be Overlord in disguise. Steamhammer and other members of Mayhem came out of hiding to confront the powerful Decepticon. None of them survived. Requiem of the Wreckers

Toys

Power Core Combiners

  • Steamhammer with Constructicons (Commander Class, 2010)
    • Accessories: Drill Drone, Front End Loader Drone, Plow Drone, Steamroller Drone
Part of the fourth wave of Power Core Combiners 5-pack figures, Steamhammer transforms into a huge bulldozer of indeterminate model with a partially-articulated plow. He also has a "power-up" mode where he becomes the torso of a super robot, capable of using any auto-transforming Power Core Combiner drone-machines for limbs. His super-robot-torso-mode is the only one of the 5-pack-original molds to have a Powerlinx plug on the chest (allowing him to use a Mini-Con as armor); only those molds originally designed for the 2-packs have had this feature. He comes with his four Constructicon drone-vehicles.
Wave 4 only barely made it out to normal retail at first, meaning most fans had to get the Constructicons from online stores. At the latter half of 2011, the later Power Core Combiners 5-packs started showing up at discount chains like Ross, TJ Maxx and Marshalls.
This mold was also used to make Buildmaster.


  • Power Core Combiners Special Value Offer (2011)
Steamhammer and the Constructicons were also made available as part of a Walmart-exclusive Black Friday "Value Pack", combining a 5-pack team with a Commander 2-pack via packaging tape and a couple of stickers, for the whopping price of ten bucks, merely a third of what the two toys would normally cost.
So far, Steamhammer has been found with the Heavytread/Groundspike, Icepick/Chainclaw, Leadfoot/Pinpoint, Salvage/Bomb-Burst, and Sledge/Throttler 2-packs attached.

Notes

  • As Power Core Combiners is pretty loose with fiction, exactly which other Constructicons his bio refers to is left up to your imagination. However, Steamhammer's appearance in Requiem of the Wreckers makes himself a Generation 1 character. So, maybe he's talking about those Constructicons?
  • The stock photography for Steamhammer shows his super mode legs with the green panels on the inner thigh. However, this configuration is backwards, making his knees bend the wrong way.
  • His combined form's head is wearing a little construction helmet.
