• Sideswipe with Vanguard (Action Master, 1991)

Only available with the European-market-only Action Master Sideswipe, Vanguard is a small cybertronic battle tank. Pressing a trigger on his rear section spring-launches the turret forward; while this is pointless by himself, when Vanguard is plugged onto Sideswipe's back, the turret flips over Sideswipe's head to act as a battle helmet.
