- Phaser is an Autobot Micromaster from the toyline portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Second-in-command of the Astro Squad, Phaser's combiner partner is the over-enthusiastic Blast Master. The need to double-check and triple-check his partner's moves is why he's perfect for his position.[1]
