War-weary veteran of ten thousand battles on a hundred worlds. Dedicated his life to recording the sounds of the Autobot-Decepticon conflict: the nervous laughter, the cries of pain, the blistering explosions, the chilling quiets. Hopes his work will one day serve as a grim reminder of the awful price of war. Can audio-record up to 20 years of sound. Armament is purely defensive: smoke discharger combines with dual repulsors. With his partner Raindance, combines to form Slamdance.
Grand Slam provided the audio, his partner Raindance the video. Like his partner, Grand Slam only went from cassette to vehicle and didn't have any kind of robot mode until they combined together.
The women's golf grand slam is the U.S. Open, LPGA Classic, Dinah Shore Classic, and the du Maurier Classic. Louise Suggs, Mickey Wright, Pat Bradley, Juli Inkster, and Karrie Webb (updated: 6/24/01) have all won the grand slam in their careers (Suggs and Wright won the Western Open and the Titleholders tournaments, which were majors at the time instead of the Dinah Shore and Du Maurier). Starting in 2001, the du Maurier is being replaced as a major by the Women's British Open.

Mmmm, I can feel my arteries hardening just thinking about it.
