Nucleon (Transformers)

Nucleon (Transformers)

Nucleon is a power source in the fictional Transformers universe. It was introduced during the beginning of the Action Masters toyline in 1990. The Action Masters were composed of small-scale 3¾" Transformers, a mixture of pre-existing characters, who were designed to closely resemble their animated counterparts from the original Transformers animated series, and original creations. None of the figures were capable of transforming, so they were supplied with transformable weapons and vehicles to compensate. Nucleon was used in the toylines' backstory to explain the drastic change in the figures.
