Who is Nosecone?

Nosecone is a Technobot — one of the Autobot team members who can combine with his comrades to form the giant Computron. He transforms into a drill tank and brings fierce tunneling power to the Autobot cause.

Nosecone drilled onto the scene in 1987's The Transformers: Headmasters #1, courtesy of creators Bob Budiansky and Frank Springer, arriving at the height of the Copper Age when the Transformers universe was expanding in bold and ambitious directions. A Marvel Comics creation with nearly four decades of publication history stretching all the way to 2025, this character has kept genuinely distinguished company — sharing pages with titans like Optimus Prime, Fortress Maximus, and Scorponok across The Transformers and Transformers Compendium. With only eight catalog appearances, Nosecone is a deep-cut figure for the dedicated collector, the kind of character who rewards those willing to dig into the richer corners of Transformers lore.
