- Salt-Man Z is an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Salt-Man Z hits hard and fast, using his drills and beta-ray gun to destroy anything he can't knock down. He has yet to meet the thing he couldn't break.[1]
Fiction

Salt-Man Z was seen among the inhabitants of the multiversal hub city of Axiom Nexus. Transcendent: Part 4
Toys
Transformers
- Salt-Man Z (1985)
- Accessories: Beta-ray gun
- Transformers Salt-Man Z is a redeco of Twin Twist, transforming into a Cybertronic twin-drill tank via a very simple, one-step process. His vehicle mode features a pull-back motor which propels him forward; after a short distance, a latch on his body releases his spring-loaded legs, and the weight and momentum flips Salt-Man Z up onto his robot-mode feet. A small lever on the back of his head adjusts the timing of when his head hits the floor, and thus his kickoff angle, hopefully making this gimmick work better.
- Like most South American Transformers of the era, he was available in several color schemes. His box art used black/yellow (available in Brazil), but it was also produced in blue/yellow (Argentina), black/white (Argentina), as well as blue/orange (Brazil). It was sold only in Argentina and Brazil.
- Like most of the South American Transformers, Salt-Man Z has poor-quality paper decals that are prone to losing their adhesiveness in short order.
- This mold was also used to make Robot-Man Z.

Notes
- Salt-Man X and Salt-Man Z's names are based on "jump" in Portuguese and Spanish, saltar being the verb and salto being the noun.
