FansProject's Springer homage (Warbot: Defender) comes with 2 handguns. Also, The main component of Perfect Effect's Reflector carries 2 neat shotgun-looking weapons too. :michaelbay:

This could turn out to be a long thread. I'll just offer G1 Hotrod and the '87 Autobot Headmasters for now. And the Dinobots, and...etc

FE Prime Optimus comes with a rifle and sword, Prime FE Arcee comes with two forearm blades where the PRiD version comes with a (too big) cannon and 1 blade. Also, all of the PRiD versions of Bumblebees mold come with a pair of forearm blasters. All recent stuff, or are you looking for something older?

Transformers Prime Wheeljack & Dead End both come with two swords

Transformers Prime Ratchet comes with two scalpels

Transformers Prime: Robots in Disguise Bumblebee, Shadow Strike Bumblebee, & Hot Shot all come with two blasters.

Transformers Prime Aircrapnid Airachnid comes with two null rays electro-stingers.

Transformers Prime Green Ironhide Sergeant Kup comes with two cannons.

Transformers Prime Rumble comes with two pile drivers.

Transformers Classics Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker, Dirge, Ramjet, Thrust, and Acid Storm, all come with null rays (ignore that custom Sunstorm back there).

Just to name a few. The list goes on, I'm just too lazy to do give you the whole list.

Actually, I think that ones a custom. Oops. :oops:

There was a Masterpiece Sunstorm, though.

After I've had my evening cuppa coffee, I'll put up another list.

Im looking to avoid the primes, its more from the Classics/Generations/Reveal the sheild/Hunt for the Decpticons etc im looking at. Trying to avoid some of the mainstream Characters like bumblebee, tho ill be for sure picking up Prime Kup

Thu Nov 29, 2012 6:21 pm

One I know of for sure is Generations Thunderwing and his redeco Skyshadow. The wing mounted missle pods double as blasters with firing projectiles. Yes even the US versions fire! Scandalous!

BTW- the Skyshadow deco is 100% better looking.

News Credits: 15 · Thu Nov 29, 2012 6:43 pm

In that case, the Seeker mold (as I said before).

Generations Thunderwing and Sky Shadow both have (awesome) dual blasters.

Reveal The Shield Fallback has dual pistols, and his predecessor (Brawn) from ROTF does too!

Hunt for the Decepticons Sea Spray comes with two harpoon launchers with firing projectiles, and so does his repaint from Reveal the Shield: Deep Dive.

United Rumble & Frenzy come with two guns that detach (on their backs) and molded-in pile drivers.

Generation Scourge comes with two guns, but their not exactly identical. I thought he was noteworthy, though.

That's all I can come up with off the top of my head. Anyone else got some?

tfcc dion has a pair of handy-looking blasters too. Also the classics Jetfire mould.

to the op, are you looking for characters with pairs of identical, hand-held weapons? this would narrow things down somewhat, as there is an awful lot of characters with dual arm-mounted weaponry as has been pointed out.

Yea wasnt overly specific, aye Matching weapons is the idea, im hoping to avoid redeco of the same mould but yea matching guns is what im looking for with some guys with double melee weapons.

I seen on Ebay something that was like a weapons kit for Kup, the generations mould, wondering where i would pick that up and what its offically called

Any chance you're referring to the iGear - W-01 - Kup & Perceptor Upgrade Kit?

Thats the one! Its for perceptor as well? Cool. So its offically called 'I-gear - W-01'? Are there many weapon upgrade kits? Are there many upgrade kits for that matter?

Sure! There are loads of them. While on the subject of Kup, iGear also put out "iGear - Kup 01 - Custom Head Kit Set" that is smokin'

And, since your into Classics, Beezleboss put out a "Devil Horns" set for Cliffjumper that included a show-accurate head and two guns (of different sizes).

There are a lot of 3rd Party companies that sell figures, stickers, and upgrade kits to improve your collection. iGear, Dr. Wu and Reprolabels are a few I can name off the bat.

You may also want to check out Shapeways.com. A lot of people have made show accurate and fan-designed weapons and accessories, some of which come in pairs (IE Arcees Prime pistols). You can get them in grey or black if you dont feel like painting them.

Few more:

These are just some of the unmentioned "newer" ones I see lying around my shelves. :lol:

There are many more, especially in G1... Predaking's a great example... Every member comes with 2 guns.

News Credits: 15 · Thu Nov 29, 2012 9:41 pm

I know you're not a favorite of Prime, but I had to mention this. One of Prime Voyager Predaking's extra heads are detachable and can be used as a "gun." I could imagine the other one is:

Since other 3rd Party figs have been mentioned we must not forget Arcee/MGT-01, a great 2 gun wielding must own...'nuff said! :VEHI:

Fri Nov 30, 2012 2:15 am

Armada Blurr and his repaints they all have 2 guns. RTS windcharger, and the first movie dreadwing.

Fri Nov 30, 2012 3:25 pm

Alot of into to take in. Yea hoping to have more transformers with dual weapons, the aim is indeed like 2 handguns or 2 machine guns, just trying to find them out there.

i looked into Igear, Dr Wu and repolabels(is that the name of the place?) Trying to find weapons etc but sadly could only find either one for Kup/perceptor or Dr Wu seems to do some cracker twin guns for FE prime.

Just gonna have to keep an eye out, really wish Hasbro or soeone just done some generic weapon packs seeing as, dont like all transformers have 5mm posts for hands?

Anyone know other weapon packs for transformers with dual weapons, in a perfect world matching not arm mounted.

Though to those who have posted me you have given me alot to research! 3 Episodes of dexter later and im still trying to research lol

No. That would be silly. There's more than 2 size classes; bigger and smaller size classes. Imagine how screwed up those hands would look.

All of their hands are different sizes and shapes with different slots, depending on their size class. And even then they can have different slots.

Armada tidal wave has 2 massive sets of guns.

Sorry I couldn't resist.

The 5mm thing is pretty standard. There are exceptions, but for the most part any weapon can fit any figure's hand.
