Few know that Sixshot, the Decepticon Ninja consultant made a cameo in the movie "The Great Outdoors" with Dan Aykroyd and John Candy.

I got a bit surprised seeing Sixshot's toy on a scene from the movie, specifically, when both Candy and Aykroyd began to argue in the cabin, one of Candy's kids is playing with a Sixshot toy.

the movie was shot in October, 1987 and released on june, 1988,for more info:

Myself and others have brought it up when we have the various "Transformers references in other medias" (movies, TV shows, video games, music etc) threads that have popped up here over the years.

One of my favorite TF X-overs.

I will watch 'The Great Outdoors' just to see that part.

I wish I can remember the name of it but there was this movie where G1 Jetfire toy makes an appearance.

I think it was an indie film that was released around 2000 - 2002. :-?

If any of you have seen The Professional starring Jean Reno and Natalie Portman, you probably recognized the episode she was watching with the Dinobots. I can't remember it all, I just know Sludge, Swoop and Slag were featured in the shots.

I don't know about ever seeing a Transformer in a movie or show, but I remember this one episode of Star Trek:TNG (or was it the movie Generations?) that had Picards kids,that were actually illusions, playing with the Toy Assault ship from the 1990s Aliens line.
