Slime laser
From MediaWiki
Once Tentakil has lured a victim into his arms, they're easy prey for his slime lasers. After they're coated in the slime lasers' adhesive goop, they're helpless to resist the slimy Seacon's deadly embrace. They can also plug into Tentakil's Targetmaster mode to form a twin lightning rifle.
Fiction

Toys
The Transformers
- Accessories: left & right slime lasers, tripod rifle, connector, weapon stand base
- The Transformers Tentakil came with two blue slime lasers, according to his instructions and packaging bio. He could carry both weapons in both robot and octopus modes as well as combining with them to form a weapons mode.
- This toy was also available in a Piranacon giftset and was concurrently sold in Takara's Super-God Masterforce line as the drone-unit Tentakil. It was reissued as part of the Transformers (2010) toyline in a Decepticon Piranacon multi-pack, while the mold was redecoed and released without accessories as Scylla in 1998 as part of Japan's Beast Wars II toyline.
Notes
- Yes, they're lasers that shoot slime. Don't ask.
- While Tentakil's packaging bio refers to his weapons as slime lasers, his Marvel Universe entry calls them laser-guided slime blasters. This makes more sense, but is less hilarious.
- When Tentakil was redecoed and reissued in the Timelines toyline as part of an exclusive Transformers Collectors' Club Piranaking giftset, his bio card revealed that his Targetmaster mode had been upgraded to a Mass-Compression Cannon, though his slime lasers were not mentioned.
