The Decepticon Headmaster Fangry is armed with an ion pulse gun, as are the Autobot Pretenders Jazz and Vroom.

In robot mode, Fangry was armed with a semi-automatic ion pulse gun, which fired a concentrated beam of energy capable of melting outer armor plating and slagging interior circuitry. Fangry's Universe profile
Dreamwave Generation One continuity
In robot mode, Fangry carried a semi-automatic ion pulse gun that fried circuitry. Fangry's More than Meets the Eye profile Autobot saboteur Vroom's Pretender shell's cycle mode was armed with side-mounted rapid-fire ion pulse guns. Vroom's More than Meets the Eye profile
Toys
The Transformers
- The Transformers Fangry came with a black gun, identified as an ion pulse gun in his instructions and packaging bio.
- Jazz (Classic Pretender, 1989)
- Accessories: 2-piece Pretender shell, helmet, laser, rifle
- Classic Pretender [[Jazz (G1)/toys#Pretender|Jazz]'s shell could be armed with a black rifle, identified as a semi-automatic ion pulse gun in his packaging bio.
- Vroom (Mega Pretender, 1989)
- Accessories: large laser, small laser, large wheel, small wheel, sidecar/base
- The Transformers Vroom came with two weapons, identified only as "large laser" and "small laser" in his instructions. However, his packaging bio notes that he is armed with two exterior 3000 rounds-per-minute ion pulse guns in addition to a magnetic repeller rifle and a mind-altering illusionizer.
Notes
- The exact location of Vroom's ion pulse guns is unclear. While his Dreamwave More than Meets the Eye profile unambiguously places them on the Pretender shell's cycle mode, his packaging bio lists the cycle mode's armaments separately, implying that the molded details on the shell's forearms represent the ion pulse guns.
- Meanwhile, Jazz's Classic Pretender More than Meets the Eye profile ditched the ion pulse gun entirely in favor of a generic pulse rifle.
