Blast Off shouldn't even bother shooting you with his ionic blaster. You're beneath him. Literally. Should he deign you worthy of notice, however, you'll find yourself bombarded with ions, disrupting all of your electrical systems—should you have any.
Mirage's electro-disrupter also shorts out his targets' electrical systems, only it uses electrical charges instead of ions, making it the perfect weapon whenever the ship needs to be a little less full.
Zigzag, one of the gnarly Needlenose's tubular Targetmaster partners, who totally fits in with the other Decepticon Targetmasters, turns into a wicked rad twin electrostatic overloader rifle. One wicked shot can overload and shutdown those lame-o Autobots' circuits. Or rather it would, if Zigzag could actually hit anything. See? Totally fits in.
Speaking of Decepticon Targetmasters, Misfire's Nebulan partner Aimless transforms into a double-barrelled ion particle blaster that fires up to 4,000 rounds of high-charged particles. Whether it works on the same principle as the afore-mentioned weapons remains a mystery even to Misfire, as he's yet to hit anyone with it.
