Suppressor (Universe)

This article is about the Decepticon-allied Mini-Con. For the Skywatch weapon, see Suppressor (device).

Suppressor is a Decepticon-allied Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family (via the 2008 Universe line).

Suppressor is no doubt the most powerful member of the Ransack Team. While he's not quite as skillful as Blight or as strong as Brimstone, he matches or outclasses his teammates in nearly all other areas. It wouldn't be surprising if Suppressor is in fact the leader of the team, but this is unconfirmed. If he's not, he probably should be.

Universe (2008)

• Mini-Con Class 12 Pack (Multi-pack, 2008)
  • Series: Armada Series

Suppressor is a redeco of Classics Firebot, transforming into a "hazmat"-decoed crash-response Oshkosh Striker 1500 truck with twin water-cannons on top.

He was available as part of a K-Mart exclusive Mini-Con 12-pack with Backstop, Blight, Bodyblock, Boltflash, Brimstone, Cloudraker, Flatfoot, Heavytread, Knockdown, Makeshift, and Skyhammer.

This mold was also used to make Buckshot.

Suppressor was also sold on an individual cardback through discount chains like Big Lots! in the US. This release is otherwise identical to the multi-pack version.

• Suppressor (Mini-Con, 2010)

In the UK, all twelve Mini-Cons from the original "Mini-Con Class 12 Pack" set were released in individual blind-packed bags with "energon fizzy sweets" candies, distributed by The Little Factory Ltd. This version of Suppressor is actually a new tooling with numerous tiny differences from the original (and generally less crisp molding), but is functionally the same toy.
