- Landmine is an Autobot Pretender in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Landmine luvvy-luvs him some adventure. He's always willing to leap into dangerous situations and unknown dangers with sword or blaster in-hand. He's brash and hot-headed, but unlike some other brash hotheads, he's very concerned about making sure he gets his job done right the first time around, so he doesn't brook mistakes.
- French-Canadian name: Sapeur

- Landmine (Pretender, 1988)
- Landmine's outer Pretender shell resembles a human in a yellow and gray armoured space suit, armed with a gray sword and a gray blaster rifle. The shell's helmet and front-half of the belt are also removable, used to help "lock" the shell-halves together. This shell has very limited articulation, located in his shoulders.
Landmine's inner robot has good articulation for the period he was released in, owing to his relatively simple transformation and design. The robot transforms into a predominantly gray Cybertronic mining vehicle. The gray rifle can be stored on the top of this mode.
This mold --in the exact same colors-- was used for the Masterforce Pretender Lander.
Trivia
- Landmine/Lander's animation model shows up in the Armada cartoon as a "generic", unnamed Cybertron. He is seen carrying a "clipboard" of some kind and reacting to the Mini-Con beacon. He's also the only one in that shot seen clearly, the other three (Streetwise, Wide Load and Sixknight) all being seen only from the back and largely obscured. First Encounter
