| This article is about the Dark of the Moon Autobot. For Generation 1 drone-unit, see Roller (G1). |
- Roller is an Autobot from the Dark of the Moon portion of the live-action film series continuity family.
Roller pilots the Ark and defends outer space from the Decepticons. He must have a lot of points on his license.
Toys
Dark of the Moon
- Autobot Ark (Cyberverse Action Set, 2011)
- Japanese ID number: CV01
- Available excusively with the "Autobot Ark" vehicle/playset, "Autobot Roller" is a relatively large Cyberverse Legion Class figure that transforms into a lunar rover of probably made-up origin, with elements of real unmanned vehicles such as the Mars Exploration Rovers and various bomb disposal/manipulator robots. Unlike most Legion Class figures, he can wield Cyberverse weapons in both modes, as his oversized right arm (which sports the necessary 3mm clip) also serves as the rover's robotic arm.
- Autobot Ark with Roller and Bonus Value Sentinel Prime (Cyberverse Playset, 2011)
- This Target-exclusive release includes otherwise unchanged Ark and Roller toys, along with a free and equally unchanged figure of the first Cyberverse Sentinel Prime toy.
Notes
- Roller's robot mode resembles the generic Autobots seen in the Ark in the the film, albeit with the addition of lunar rover kibble. Between this and his position as the Ark's pilot, it's likely that he's intended to be one of those Autobots... but it's impossible to tell which one.
- Roller's vehicle mode is nearly identical to the Cyberverse Lunar Crawler, only at a much smaller scale.
