- Big Daddy is an Autobot from the 2007 movie franchise portion of the live-action film series continuity family
More concerned about his paint job, Big Daddy isn't particularly interested in the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons. Nah, he'd rather be at a local drag or the nearby beach. Whenever Big Daddy feels like traveling, he goes slow, so that humans can appreciate his awesome colors. He and his posse stay out of the Autobots' way, and the Autobots stay out of theirs.[1]

Toys
Transformers (2007)
- Big Daddy (Deluxe, 2008)
- Accessories: Two launchers (left & right), two missiles, Autobot Cybertron-type Cyber Planet Key
- Part of a wave of Wal-Mart exclusive deluxes, Big Daddy is a orange and black redeco of Cybertron Downshift, and an homage to the Generation 1 Micromaster of the same name. Big Daddy transforms into a car with styling heavily influenced by the Chrysler pony cars from 1970 through 1974.
- Inserting his Cyber Planet Key into a flip-up slot in his rear window activates a claw from the car's grill. This feature is also available in robot mode. He comes with two large spring-loaded missile launchers, which can be mounted on his side-panels in car mode, or be used in robot mode as hand-held blasters or mounted on his shoulders.
- This toy was later repurposed as Shattered Glass Big Daddy.
Notes
- Movie Big Daddy exists because Kyde is awesome.
- His toy bio talks about how he takes care that his chrome won't be damaged, yet the toy itself does not actually have chromed parts. How ironic, Megatron!
- The card-art ignores the clear plastic "ears" on his head.
