Giga-Techvolt

Alan, you wanker, until you can use this thing properly, I'm taking it back.

When Alan brings out the devastating Giga-Techvolt (ギガテックボルト Gigatekkuboruto) cannon, the Decepticons start shaking and running for cover. The Liner Team's electrical warrior's cool, detached manner is made all the more creepy when he's toting around a gigantic double-barreled electrical cannon.

It doubles as a snazzy pair of pants.

This weapon is also sometimes used by D-Go.

Toys

Return of Convoy

• Sixliner (Micromaster Sixteam, 1991)
  • Japanese ID number: C-370

The Giga-Techvolt is... well, it's basically Sixliner's pelvis/thighs piece mounted on top of any of the compatible Liner Team members in train mode (though the iinstruction booklet specifically assigns the weapon to D-Go), the knee-clips being the "barrels".

This mold was also used to make the equivalent weapon/body part of Sixtrain and Universe Rail Racer, though those have yet to be officially named.

Micromaster

Call that a weapon, yeah? Well good luck to ya mate, 'cos I wouldn't have the f**kin' nerve.

• Alan (Micromaster, 2002)
  • Sixliner ID number: 2
  • Accessories: Sixliner legs/"Giga-Techvolt"

For The Transformers: Micromaster, the Giga-Techvolt had its decals replaced with paint operations. Since the team was split up into individual boxes for sale, so too were the combiner kibble pieces; the legs/Techvolt inexplicably came with its carrier Alan, who forms an arm. It also doesn't mount to Alan very well, basically needing to be wedged in at an angle to stay in place.

Notes

• The Giga-Techvolt's name comes from the much later Micromaster fiction; it was not named in the original Return of Convoy Sixliner instruction booklet. Also, though the Techvolt is mentioned in Alan's Micromaster bio, his instructions do not otherwise give any indication that the leg-piece can be mounted on anyone's train mode.
