The Transformers Scattershot transforms into a large red and white space cruiser with a ginormous cannon up front. In jet form, his rear landing gear is actually on his wings, which need to be folded down to keep him upright on the ground. His ”Attack Jet” mode simply adds one of his small ”artillery guns” to the top of the jet and the Computron chestplate to the underside; the instructions show the chestplate attached backwards from how it is actually designed to attach so it will not work that way. The more well-known secondary mode is the ”Rocket Launcher” form, a piece of grounded artillery where the chestplate forms a blast shield. In any mode, pressing the gray button on his pilot compartment roof splits his nosecone open down the middle, revealing a spring-loaded non-firing cannon-barrel (which is what you’re supposed to do for Rocket Launcher mode anyway).
Scattershot can also combine with his fellow Technobots to form Computron, serving as the super-robot’s torso. He can also combine with any other Transformers that use the ”Scramble City”-style connection system.
Later releases of the Hasbro Scattershot from 1988 have no rubsign, and the indent for the rubsign has also been retooled away.
