Tracer (Targetmaster)

Tracer is a Nebulan "double" Targetmaster partnered with Holepunch and the Autobot Scoop

Community service is a strange way to end up in the middle of an alien war, nonetheless that's what happened to Tracer. Serving time in prison for a youthful crime that he has regretted ever since, Tracer volunteered to become an Autobot Targetmaster in hopes of helping defend his world, doing good deads and someday, maybe, earning an official pardon.

The connection between Holepunch and Tracer in their combined mode is less than perfect, sometimes misaligning and causeing them to jam when fired.

Fiction

Marvel Comics Continuity

Scoop wielded Holepunch and Tracer in "double weapon" mode during a series of fuel raids on Cybertron alongside the recently revived Grimlock, Jazz and Bumblebee. When Hook, Line and Sinker attacked some months later, Flintlock, Silencer and the other Nebulan "double" Targetmasters appeared absent.
