The name or term "Strongarm" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Strongarm (disambiguation).
Strongarm is an Autobot-allied Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Unlike most of the other passengers on the colony ship Atlantis, Strongarm stayed true to the cause of justice—though the tiny, acerbic tin-star would surely balk if anyone described him like that. Once the Atlantis landed on ancient Earth, he teamed with Crosswise and Evac to round up his marauding brethren, making good use of his superior sensory components, language skills, and holomatter projector in the process. Despite having a rough exterior, Strongarm is a big softie on the inside, and wonders if he and his adopted planet's natives aren't really that different...[1] Sometimes he is a member of the Night Rescue Team with Divebomb and Firebot.

  • Cybertron Primus (Supreme, 2006)
Strongarm is identical the Classics Night Rescue Team Mini-Con Strongarm, transforming into a police car based on a 2006 Dodge Charger (but with the proportions messed up). He was only available in a special release of the Cybertron Primus toy which was only available at Walmart stores, which also comes with Knockdown, Nightscream, and Offshoot.
This mold was also used to make Detectas, Rad Rogue, Flatfoot, Overcharge, and Mighty Stra.

Notes

  • Strongarm's mold is the only Mini-Con mold with Powerlinx sockets that are accessible only in robot mode by design: the sockets on the outside of his lower legs, which end up folded against his thighs inside his car mode.
