Fiction

Generation 1 cartoon continuity

The Transformers cartoon

The Autobots used Tokyo Tower as an antenna to send Kremzeek to the Decepticons' energy magnet. Kremzeek! Tokyo Tower also was one of the first monuments scheduled to be treated with corrostop. Whether it ever was coated is unknown. Cosmic Rust

Car Robots cartoon

The Robots in Disguise version of Car Robots takes place in Metro City rather than Tokyo. As such, the structure in "An Explosive Situation" technically is not Tokyo Tower.

Wildride drove up Tokyo Tower to get a better view of the city and, with that, Destronger activity.

Some time later, Wildride came back down to steal an energy bomb from the Destrongers, but he accidentally activated it. In order to limit the damage it could do to the city, Mach Alert suggested he'd take it to the highest structure he could think of. Wildride's thoughts immediately went to the Tokyo Tower, which this time he swung and towed himself to the top of, closely followed by Gelshark who wanted the bomb to power up the Megastar. The tower was not high enough to let the bomb detonate safely though, but Fire Convoy had a plan. He ordered Wildride to throw it as high as he could and from the ground, Fire Convoy used his water cannon to send both the bomb and Gelshark into space. High Speed Battle! Gelshark

Robotmasters cartoon

Optimus Primal made his dramatic entrance and pummeled Starscream out of the sky from Tokyo Tower. He was assisted in this by Reverse Convoy, who suddenly showed up, and with whom he met up at the base of the tower. Lio Convoy Storms In

Beast Wars II comic

On post-apocalyptic Earth, Lio Convoy and Tasmania Kid had a talk while sitting on the remnants of the Tokyo Tower until the former noticed a mysterious ray of light from a chasm nearby. Infiltrate the Mystery Island!

Games

Transformers Roleplaying Game

While battling an obnoxious energy creature, the Autobots defeated their foe by coating the Tokyo Tower with a special liquid. However, the Cybertronian technology made the tower an attractive target for Decepticon raiders. To keep an eye on this potential trouble spot, Wheeljack built an Autobot Road entrance somewhere near the tower. Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook
