Fire Blast effect
From MediaWiki
Other contemporary 3 mm compatible accessories
Borne of the same design team, and often made from the same constituent materials, the following accessories are also compatible with the 3 mm posts found in the fire blast effect play pattern — but are not fire blasts in the strictest sense. So you can use them as damage impacts and weapons discharge, but they'd look pretty silly.
- Siege Refraktor Reconnaissance Team 3-Pack (multi-pack, 2019)
- Included with the exclusive Siege Refraktor Reconnaissance Team 3-Pack is a small rubberised figurine of Kremzeek, the electric reprobate from the episode of the same name. Each of Kremzeek's feet features a 3 mm hole.
- Collaborative Ectotron (2019)
- Collaborative MP-10G Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition (2019)
- Collaborative Ectotron (2021)
- The inaugural release in Transformers Collaborative, Ectotron includes a 3 mm compatible figurine of the Ghostbusters' troublemaker-cum-mascot, Slimer, in translucent green plastic. Slimer also comes with "Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition", this time opaque with a painted mouth and eyes. With the second release of Ectotron, Slimer is once more translucent and unpainted, but in a slightly darker green.
- Earthrise Arcee (Deluxe Class, 2020)
- Earthrise Galactic Odyssey Collection Paradron Medics (2020)
- War for Cybertron Trilogy Autobot Elita-1 (Deluxe Class, 2020)
- Kingdom Arcee (Deluxe Class, 2021)
- In the interests of completeness, we'll take the opportunity to note that Earthrise Deluxe Class Arcee makes use of 3 mm posts and holes to ride her hoverboard in robot mode. As such, her feet are completely compatible with anywhere you can mount blast effects. This holds true with her "Galactic Odyssey Collection" redeco Lifeline, her War for Cybertron Trilogy retool "Autobot Elita-1", and her package refresh in Kingdom.
War for Cybertron Trilogy Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack Energon cubes and Soundwave
- War for Cybertron Trilogy Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack (Deluxe Class with accessories pack, 2020)
- Among many many other accessories, the War for Cybertron Trilogy Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack includes two energon cubes. These cubes are made of solid plastic, unlike the majority of blast effects, and each one features a 3 mm port in one corner. The set also contains a miniature accessory of Soundwave's microcassette recorder mode, which has a 3 mm hole on the underside.
- War for Cybertron Trilogy Quintesson Pit of Judgement (multi-pack, 2020)
- The unfortunate guest of the War for Cybertron Trilogy Quintesson Pit of Judgement, this small, non-articulated figurine of Kranix features a blast effect-port compatible 3 mm hole in his left foot. (Incidentally, his right foot has a hole compatible with the Titan Master pegs found on Titans Return toys.)
- Collaborative Maverick (2020)
- Released to tie in with Top Gun, Collaborative Maverick includes an interchangeable pair of hands with 3 mm posts in the palms specifically so he can hold the included "blast effect" volleyball accessory. That's right – this toy uses a homoerotically-charged beach game as a selling point. Transformers has peaked.
- War for Cybertron Trilogy Spoiler Pack #3 (Leader Unboxing, 2021)
- Buzzworthy Bumblebee Worlds Collide (4-pack, 2021)
- One of the goodies buried in the compound of the third War for Cybertron Trilogy Spoiler Pack, this Allspark accessory is bright yellow and just shy of 11 millimetres cubed. Based on the model from the War for Cybertron Trilogy show, the Allspark features a 3 mm hole in one face so it can peg onto the included Megatron to recreate events from the cartoon. The Allspark's opposite face has a shallow 3 mm post of its own, so other blast effects can be mounted onto it. A redecoed Allspark, this time in a dark gold colour, is included as an accessory for the Bumblebee included in the baffling Buzzworthy Bumblebee "Worlds Collide" multi-pack.
- Collaborative Ectotron (2021)
- The second Collaborative Ectotron is released in promotion of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and includes a translucent blue figure of that film's
hideouscute merchandisable character, Muncher. As with Slimer, Muncher features a 3 mm port on the underside.
- Legacy: Evolution Beachcomber & Paradise Parakeet (2023)
- Receiving top billing alongside Legacy: Evolution Beachcomber, "Paradise Parakeet" is a funny little guy based on Beachcomber's iconic avian friend from the The Transformers cartoon episode "The Golden Lagoon". The bird's base can perch on 3 mm posts, like on Beachcomber's shoulder, or in any 5 mm ports.
