Metrotank

Metrotank is a Decepticon from the Zone portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

He makes up for his lack of transformation with a positive personality.

Metrotank (メトロタンク Metorotanku) is a sentient tank, and a member of the Metrosquad. The only member of the squad who lacks a robot mode, he is nonetheless extremely powerful, but also has a very short temper. Winning combination, right there.

A redeco of Slammer, Metrotank is... well, a tank. He transforms into a tower for Metrotitan's city mode by removing the tank turret (and just setting it aside) and flipping out a large "antenna" from the front. He was only available as part of the Metrotitan set.
