The Dinobot Slag sometimes carries an electron blaster, while the Autobot Skids is armed with a (no doubt much fancier) twin electron blaster.

Fiction

Marvel The Transformers comics

Skids carried an electron blaster, which fired a burst of 20,000 volts and could short-circuit virtually any mechanical foe. Skids's Universe profile

Dinobots Strike Back

The following summarizes one or more multipath adventures. Details vary depending on the paths taken in-story. See the book's page for information on alternate paths.

While Skids and Bumblebee were investigating Dolphin's Bay in Wheeljack's new mini-submarine they were attacked by Frenzy, whose high-frequency assault sent the sub haywire. Skids considered shorting out the sub with his electron blaster. Dinobots Strike Back

Dreamwave Generation One continuity

Toys

The Transformers

G1 Skids toy.jpg
The Transformers Skids came with a chromed sliver double-barrelled gun, identified in his instructions and packaging bio as a twin electron blaster.
This mold was reissued many times. It is itself a retool of an earlier Diaclone mold which was used to make Crosscut and Screech.

Generation 2

Although Generation 2 Slag's chromed silver weapon is described generically in his instructions as a "blaster gun", his packaging bio confirms that it is still an electron blaster.


Masterpiece

  • Skids (November 20, 2021)
    • Accessories: liquid nitrogen rifle, twin electron blaster
When Skids received the Masterpiece treatment, his twin electron blaster was similarly upscaled.
This mold was also used to make Reboost and Crosscut.

Notes

  • While Slag's instructions and packaging bio call his weapon an electron blaster, his Marvel Universe profile instead says that he is armed with a laser rifle. His Dreamwave More than Meets the Eye profile further muddies the waters, claiming that he is armed with an electron gun, like Brawl.
