Electronet Launcher

The Electronet Launcher is a weapon from the Aligned continuity family.

The most difficult burrito.

The Electronet Launcher belongs to the Autobot Smokescreen, and is a fitting complement to his favored Phase Shifter. Just as the shifter makes Smokescreen impermeable to matter, the launcher generates a shadow field that makes him almost impossible to see or target. Because the net is also electrified, it delivers a powerful bioelectric shock when it's fired from the launcher, and it can be made rigid enough for the net-launcher combo to be used as a makeshift axe.

Prime: Beast Hunters Smokescreen wields the "Electronet Launcher", which can mount on the roof of his vehicle mode via its 5mm handle. The net itself is made of a soft, removable rubber with a tab on one side and a slot on the other, allowing it to be rolled up, with some effort, and stored on a hexagonal peg located on the robot mode's back. Also, the launcher component features a trio of grooves all over its body for some currently unknown purpose.

His packaging stock photography depicts his Electronet and armor as being cast in a mixture of blue and red plastic, but the final product has these cast only in metallic blue.
