| The name or term "Strongarm" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Strongarm (disambiguation). |
- Strongarm is an Autobot-allied Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Unlike most of the other passengers on the colony ship Atlantis, Strongarm stayed true to the cause of justice—though the tiny, acerbic tin-star would surely balk if anyone described him like that. Once the Atlantis landed on ancient Earth, he teamed with Crosswise and Evac to round up his marauding brethren, making good use of his superior sensory components, language skills, and holomatter projector in the process. Despite having a rough exterior, Strongarm is a big softie on the inside, and wonders if he and his adopted planet's natives aren't really that different...[1]
