- Greatshot is an Autobot Six Changer during the Victory era of the Generation 1 continuity family.
A former Decepticon who decided he was sick of blowing stuff apart, Greatshot turned on his partners on Planet Micro. A loner, Greatshot took a while to come round to being a team player. Eventually though, he became sort of a loose affiliate, part of the team but he preferred to do things his own way.
Greatshot's six modes, ranging from robot to rhino, make him one of the most lethal warriors the Autobots have. Plus he ruffles Gaihawk's feathers quite a bit.
Fiction
Victory cartoon
Voice actor: Michihiro Ikemizu (Japan)
Greatshot hasn't always kept the best of company. His former friends include the criminal mercenaries Blue Bacchus and Black Shadow as well as the sociopathic Gaihawk. Greatshot trailed the pair of mercenaries to planet Micro, intent on stopping them as his first step in "Putting an End to Conflict." Greatshot managed to destroy the powerful Pretender shells of the two mercenaries though he failed to defeat either core opponent. Greatshot traveled with Holi to the prison facility of Micro, though it was in the hopes of converting his former friend Gaihawk to the Autobot cause. Gaihawk gave his refusal in a spray of blaster rounds that almost wiped out the two Autobots. While Greatshot lost his old friend, he did gain a new one in the diminutive police-bot. And still the only person he has managed to shoot is Hellbat.

Trivia
- There is fan speculation that Greatshot is an upgrade version of Sixshot, due to several reason: he is retooled from Sixshot; both he and Japanese Sixshot are related to ninja; both they are voiced by the same voice actror. There is also a speculation that Greatshot and Sixshot were originally intended to be the same character, but the idea was cancelled due to the staff didn't want that much continuity between series just like Galaxy Force. But without any confirmation from official bio, there is nothing to really support or refute this idea.
