| The name or term "Longarm" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Longarm (disambiguation). |
- Longarm is an evil Autobot from the Shattered Glass continuity family.
Longarm is an Autotrooper officer. He was always kind of a wet blanket, but recently he's been acting really strangely and disappearing for long stretches of time without explanation. He's even started saying stuff like "Interrogative" and "Conclusion" before his sentences. Weird, huh?
Toys
Timelines
- Shattered Glass Longarm (Customization Class Exclusive, BotCon 2012)
- Accessories: "Blaster," two speakers, alternate Shockwave head, alternate Shockwave gun
- Shattered Glass Longarm is a redeco of "Special Ops Jazz," available only at the BotCon 2012 customization classes. He transforms from a robot into a purple sports car. The speakers can also combine with his rifle via clips to form a super rifle, or they can be used on any other clip-compatible Transformers toy. Longarm also comes with an alternate Shockwave head and gun arm, which one can use instead of the proper head and hand. The head can fit during transformation if properly sanded, but the gun cannot. Neither new piece is considered Hasbro product.
- This mold was also used to make United Stepper, the alternate-headed version of the mold was used to make BotCon 2012 Treadshot, and was retooled to make Botcon 2012 Kick-Over.
Notes
- Shockwave's ability to disguise himself as Longarm is an homage to Animated Shockwave, who infiltrated the Autobot ranks as Longarm.
- Longarm is a disguised Shockwave, but which Shockwave is still unrevealed.
- Dan Khanna made it a personal mission to fit Longarm somewhere into that year's convention comic. And he did draw him in. However, he got colored as a Shattered Glass Ricochet. Not in Shattered Glass Ricochet's actual colors, mind, but in inverted Generation 1 Ricochet-inspired colors. Whoops.
