Fiction

Generation 1 cartoon continuity

The Transformers cartoon

Voice actor: Chris Latta (English; Slammer never spoke, but Latta was cast for the part.)

Slammer was often seen when Autobot City looked like Metroplex's city mode, which was usually right before or after Metroplex transformed. When in tank mode, Slammer was accompanied by his partners Scamper and Six-Gun.

Slammer appeared alongside Scamper and Six-Gun when the latter interrogated the Dinobots and Sky Lynx over the recent theft of famous monuments. Thief in the Night

Later, Slammer and Scamper responded to Swindle's intrusion of Metroplex, but were disabled when the Decepticon blew a hole in the floor, causing them to crash. The Ultimate Weapon

Slammer is a small tank unit composed of one of Metroplex's city-mode towers with a cannon turret added on. Due to the peg used to let him become a tower, he can replace one of Metroplex's fists to act as an arm cannon of sorts. Naturally, he was only available with Metroplex.

He was later re-released with the Encore Metroplex with a minor retool that allowed his gun turret to become the top of a building in city mode.

The same mold is used by Metrotank.
