Blowpipe (ROTF)

This article is about the Pipes homage from Revenge of the Fallen. For the Nebulan Targetmaster from Generation 1, see Blowpipe (G1).

Blowpipe is an Autobot from the Revenge of the Fallen portion of the live-action movie continuity.

He is an Autobot with red eyes.

Blowpipe just loves to tinker with himself. Fascinated by Earth technology, he and Ratchet spend a lot of time incorporating high-performance racing machinery into his systems. This relentless self-modification has resulted in a robot that's far stronger and faster than he appears at first glance.

He's particularly eager to test his nitro-boosted speed against the Decepticon messenger Sideways.

Revenge of the Fallen

So few Transformers names are complete sentences.

• Super Tuner Throwdown (Deluxe two-pack, 2009)
  • Accessories: Claw/plier weapon

Blowpipe is a redeco of the first film's Dropkick toy, in blue and gray as an homage to Generation 1 Pipes. He transforms into a customized Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck (or a similar model just different enough to avoid paying a licensing fee). His flatbed cover conceals a giant claw/plier deployed from the tailgate by a sliding knob on top. This assembly becomes a hand-held weapon for his robot mode. He also has (non-firing) twin blasters on the underside of each forearm in robot mode. Blowpipe was only available in a Walmart exclusive two-pack with the darker version of Sideways.

This mold was also used to make Salvage.
