The Punch

The Punch is a weapon from the Animated continuity family

FALCON PUNCH!

The Punch is Lugnut's trump card. By retracting his "hand" and replacing it with a pressure sensitive pad, Lugnut can devastate any opponent near him by slamming it into the ground. As long as the move is completed, the shockwave doesn't effect Lugnut, or those near him although it can rattle their circuits a bit. Unfortunately, if the trigger is activated prematurely, the move has a tendency to backfire, the force hitting Lugnut instead. Ouch.

If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times: GIVE ME SOME WARNING BEFORE YOU USE THE PUNCH!{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:Hothead Blitzwing, sick of being buried in the rubble"Lost and Found"|Hothead Blitzwing, sick of being buried in the rubble{{#if:"Lost and Found"|, "Lost and Found"|}}|}}

Fiction

Animated cartoon

During his first encounter with the Autobots, the suggestion that Megatron had been killed infuriated Lugnut, and he used The Punch to level the Autobots, shaking Blitzwing up in the process.Lost and Found.

The Punch was again seen during a brief battle with Ratchet where it was used to knock Ratchet through a wall after he refused to hand over Sari's key.Megatron Rising - Part 1. Later during an open assault on the Autobots' ship, Lugnut engaged in one-on-one combat with Bulkhead. He prepared to use his Punch to finish off the weaker autobot but he was so busy talking, Bulkhead triggered it early, and the force of it sent Lugnut flying.Megatron Rising - Part 2

When attempting to recover a fragment of the AllSpark, Lugnut ended up "converting" Wreck-Gar to the Decepticons. When Ratchet and Bumblebee tracked Wreck-Gar down, Lugnut prepared to use the Punch...which Wreck-Gar took to be a high-five, and set The Punch off. Lugnut actually came out of this one without being blown away. Garbage In, Garbage Out

After duping a couple of eager and rather dense bots into doing some heavy lifting for him and Blitzwing, Lugnut attempted to take out the poor saps with his mighty Punch. Unfortunately, Megatron interrupted it, surprising Lugnut and causing him to stumble into a mine shaft where his punch backfired upon him. Again. Ever the trooper, he made sure everyone knew he was OK. Rise of the Constructicons

Trivia

• In his Cybertronian body, Lugnut's elbow transformed, and used a rocket to slam the arm into the ground. This hasn't been seen since he took his earth body, though since then he's never succeeded in using the thing at all.

• The Cartoon Network Staff liked the fan name for the Punch; "The Punch of Kill Everything," so much that they may work it into the show. Which would be too cool.
