transformers weapons

Postby whats crackin lil bitches » Tue Oct 02, 2007 11:53 am

not sure if this has been done before, but i couldn't find a list of each transformer's weapon elsewhere on the site. i read somewhere that simon furman's movie guide book had profiles on each transformer and their weapons...based on the actual movie, was wondering what weapons each transformer brought to the fight. here's what i saw

Prime: energon blade and plasma cannon/pulse blaster thingy
Jazz: blue plasma cannon/pulse blaster that he fired at Megatron (although wikipedia insists it's a gatling gun mounted with the shield, not sure if it's a separate weapon); also has a semi-circular shield that's clearly visible as he attacked Brawl the second time moment before the camera cut to Ratchet with the saw; wikipedia also says Jazz has a sword, but didn't see it in the movie
Ratchet: a nifty cutting saw and what i believe is a gatling gun used to cover Sam
Ironhide: plasma cannon/missile launcher combo on right arm, and bigass plasma cannon on left arm; also some kind of EMP shockwave that disabled Sector 7 vehicles
Bumblebee: plasma cannon on right arm, two missile packs on shoulder

Megatron: big fusion/plasma cannon from 2 arms combined (he also blasted Jazz when he first appeared with some kind of fusion/plasma cannon, don't think he combined arms that time); arm flail
Starscream: missile packs (not sure where, just remembered him shooting missiles to disable Hoover Dam power); gatling guns? (in the fight with Ironhide and Ratchet)
Barricade: spiked tire/flail on chains
Bonecrusher: forked tail....sure he has other weapons but the movie didn't showcase anything but his brute force
Blackout: this is a fun one, he has an EMP shockwave in the attack in Qatar; spinning blades from rotor; plasma or gatling guns? (not sure what he attacked Qatar with, mostly he seemed to throw stuff around); and supposedly a chest mounted laser that he was going to wax the air force observer dude with the camera attached to Lennox's team
Brawl: main cannon in tank mode, 2 smaller cannons on top of the turret, and 2 missile packs, also has a gatling gun that he used to strafe Lennox's team in the street before Bumblebee took him out (i believe this is separate from his other weapons)
Scorponok: gatling guns/plasma cannons on his 2 pincers and tail

anything i missed?

one thing i don't get is, all the sites i've seen say Jazz has a sword and shield. some sites and toys even say that Jazz has a telescoping sword, which definitely did not see in the movie. anyone else get this sword and shield combo?

Brawl also has an anti-infantry weapon on his left hand. It was cut off by Ratchet's buzzsaw during the attack.

Are you sure? I thought it was only his arm cannon.

Since Autobots don't chew their food, I wonder what is Prime's teeth for.

Yes. He shot a pair missile launcher on his shoulders towards Brawl, only once.

Somehow, I remember that scene very well.

But he was already in the Concept Camaro format, right?

Another reason I should watch the Movie again.

They got the shield part right, but no sword.

well, jazz's gun DOES have at least 9 barrels

also, scorponok attacks with his tail (of course!)

and blackouts gun IS an EMP launcher that is also a spearhead-type blaster (the gatling gun thing when he attacked smaller buildings in qatar)

Go to Photobucket, and search "Jazz 2." That'll show a picture of Jazz's hand.

Seems like most, if not all of the movie weapons are built in to the robot. The arm or wrist transforms into the weapon.
