Scattorshot is an Autobot from the Revenge of the Fallen franchise in the live-action film continuity family.

Oh, so THAT'S how you look without glasses.

Scattorshot spends a lot of time carefully planning out any battle tactics he and his teammates can use, and only expects as much time for careful planning and thoughtful action from the Decepticons. Unfortunately, true to their nature, they tend to specialize in surprise attacks or causing just plain random chaos more than anything else, which bugs the heck out of Scattorshot. In fact, nothing upsets him more than the chaos of unplanned battle. However, he still can't help but get his kicks out of peppering the air around Divebomb, the latest Decepticon to interrupt his contemplative strategizing, with all the artillery at his disposal. And that's a LOT of artillery. Unfortunately for Scattorshot, he does not realize that the slow and clumsy Decepticon he's using for target practice is just a diversion for an even more duplicitous attack by another...

  • Japanese ID number: RA-30

Scattorshot transforms into an anti-aircraft vehicle resembling a pick-up truck retrofitted for heavy combat, with armament such as roof-mounted cannons, armor plating and a treaded plow. Many elements on the toy are homages to Scattorshot’s Cybertron counterpart, including the dual roof-mounted cannons, predominantly dark blue and gray color scheme, black windows, yellow lights and front grill detailing. The plow pays homage to the front-mounted minesweeping claws on the Voyager Cybertron Defense version of Cybertron Scattorshot. In robot mode, the dual cannons become hand-held rifles.

There are two variations of Scattorshot available, one with light gray parts and one with darker gray parts. Judging by the photos on the blister package, the toy was originally made with dark gray parts, and a running change made later versions of the toy with light gray parts.
