The Dark Matter Calibur is a Decepticon Mini-Con-formed weapon from the Aligned continuity family.
Each pound weighs over ten thousand pounds.

A massive broadsword formed from the Arms Microns Gabu, Baru and Dai, the Dark Matter Calibur is just one of the many Super Combo Weapons the Arms Microns can form when they work together.


Fiction

Prime

The Dark Matter Calibur appears only in the Arms Micron Theater segment of the Japanese broadcasts.

Gabu, Baru and Dai arrived in the studio to show off their Super Combo Weapon mode, the Dark Matter Calibur. They then promptly cut large gashes in the set (scaring Gul and Zori who had been hiding behind the door). O.P., B.2 and R.A. arrived in their Star Saber mode to try and stop the carnage, but one swipe of the Calibur forced them to separate. Adhesive Transformation!? Magnetic Tag Match Still combined, Gabu, Baru and Dai then fell asleep, giving O.P., B.2 and R.A. a chance to plan a different strategy. Exploration Transformation! Escape from the Underground Once they woke up, they began demanding an apology from the three Autobot Microns, who refused and called in reinforcements in the form of Pral, Jayz and Sais. These new arrivals combined into the Cosmotector Super Combo Weapon, which then powered up into a golden form and defeated the Dark Matter Calibur, causing Gabu, Baru and Dai to separate.

  • Gabu (AMW Micron, 7-28-2012)
    • ID number: AMW-01
  • Baru (AMW Micron, 7-28-2012)
    • ID number: AMW-02
  • Dai (AMW Micron, 7-28-2012)
    • ID number: AMW-03
The Dark Matter Calibur is a massive sword formed by combining the Arms Microns Gabu, Baru and Dai, each available as unassembled, unplainted individual "kits" as part of the AMW assortment. As each Micron still has several unused 5mm posts and holes, even more Arms Microns (and other compatible accessories) can be added on to make even bigger and more ridiculous weapons.
While the trio were released at normal retail in late July of 2012, they were made available for sale early at TakaraTomy's booth at the Next Generation World Hobby Fair Summer '12 in Fukuoka, Japan, on June 30 and July 1. People who bought all three got a free Autobot Firebolt Clear Yellow Version as a bonus.


Notes

  • "Calibur" is derived from "Excalibur", and seems to be a popular name for bigass swords in Japan (SoulCalibur anyone?) and on Cybertron.
