Boomer

Boomer is a Nebulan "double" Targetmaster partnered with Ricochet and the Autobot Quickmix



Boomer's friends tell him "Ignorance is bliss," he won't get it, aned even if he did Boomer isn't one to take offense, that's just the kinda guy he is. Boomer's trademark brand of loud, infectious good-hearted enthusiasm was his only marketable skill. As the head of the Consumer Complaint Agency on Nebulos he dealt with thousands of angry citizens all day. Boomer thought after that fighting Decepticons should be easy by comparison, so he joined the Autobots.

Boomer was bio-engineered to turn into a sonic pulse cannon, which generates soundwaves or different intensities and frequencies that can be used for either the gentlest effect, or to shatter steel. As a "double" Targetmaster, Boomer is able to combine with Ricochet to increase the power of his own weapon, or boost the power of Ricochet's submachine gun.

Boomer frequently has to soothe the impatient Quickmix or cheer up his depressive partner Boomer. Fortunately, he doesn't mind.

Quickmix always holds Boomer in his left hand.

Marvel Comics Continuity
Bommer and Ricochet were paired with Quickmix on Cybertron during a series of fuel raids with the recently revived Grimlock, Jazz and Bumblebee. When Galvatron attacked some months later, Boomer, Ricochet and the other Nebulan Double Targetmasters were absent while their Autobot partners fought Galvatron.

Toys
Boomer, like all "double" Targetmasters, is one of the smallest and least complicated Transformers toys. Fold the barrel away, and stand him up. He was released with the Autobot Quickmix in 1988. No version of this character or mold was released in Japan.
