  • Accessories: Rifle, 2 missiles

A redeco of the Generation 2 "Hero" Megatron mold, Bludgeon transforms into an Abrams M1A1 assault tank. His main cannon uses an air-bladder to launch the hollow, rubber-tipped missiles he comes with. These missiles can be stored with pull-out clips on the sides of his turret, which become his robot-mode arms.

He and his fellow Destructicon Scourge were exclusive to the KB Toys store chain, released under the Robots in Disguise banner long after the series had been replaced with Armada, which explains why they used the same packaging style.

While his package art shows him having two separate eyes (like the original release of the figure as Megatron), the actual toy has its face painted red across its nose to connect the eyes to make a rather unevenly-leveled eye visor.

This mold was also used to make Archforce and retooled into Reverse Convoy/Rebirth Megatron. Bludgeon himself was later repurposed as Shattered Glass Bludgeon.
