Toys
The Transformers
- Hot Rod (Autobot Car, 1986)
- Accessories: 2 photon lasers
- Known designers: Takashi Kunihiro (TakaraTomy), Floro Dery (concept art)
- The Transformers Hot Rod's came with two gray weapons, identified as photon lasers in his instructions and packaging bio. One could be mounted on the engine block in vehicle mode, or both could be held in robot mode. Unlike almost every other Transformers toy that came with two of the same weapon, Hot Rod's photon lasers were not identical nor even symmetrical—unusually, each one had its own mold and detailing.
- This toy has been redecoed and reissued a number of times since its first release; see Hot Rod (G1)/toys for more information.
- Rodimus Convoy (Masterpiece, 2011)
- Accessories: trailer/Mobile Defense Bay, photon eliminator/photon lasers alpha & beta, Matrix of Leadership, buzzsaw, welding torch
- TakaraTomy's Masterpiece Rodimus Convoy came with two black weapons, for the first time individually identified as "photon laser alpha" and "photon laser beta", which can combine and extend through a spring-loaded automorph-style process into Rodimus Prime's larger photon eliminator. The guns can store within his trailer, and mount on any one of six different ports in Mobile Defense Bay mode for additional firepower. Like the original Hot Rod toy, a single photon laser can mount on the vehicle mode's engine block.
- In addition to the Hasbro version, this figure was also redecoed into Black Rodimus Convoy.
- Known designers: Tomoya Miyake and Yūya Ōnishi (TakaraTomy)
- Masterpiece Hot Rodimus came with two gray photon lasers, as identified in his bio.
