    Other than him though, nothing's really clicking. Like, unless small ones like what BW Optimus Primal count, or the countless "shoulder mounted" cannons that had quite a present abundance in just about everything.

    Uhh... what series or era are we talking about here, and is there anything else that could narrow it?

    Uh... specific continuity you're referring to? It would help us narrow it down, as TrueNomadSkies just said.

    The number of Transformers characters who have wielded an arm cannon at some point in some manner can be technically referred to as "a shitload".

    Hoist and Trailbreaker had guns for hands if I remember correctly????
    And Ironhide had the occasional liquid nitrogen hand...
    ROTF Ironhide had duel arm cannons, and Bumblebee had the transforming arm cannon.

    Those guys had fists and guns. The fore-arms were spring-loaded launchers at least originally.

    Sorry, I posted this then my attention was never brought back to this.

    But I am thinking G1 maybe...

    I know of the seekers and shockwave...then again it might be nothing.

    Anyone with an arm canon much like Megatron.

    Everyone? Arm cannons aren't like a rare weapon when we're talking about TFs here.
