Boomer Rumble should not be confused with Transformers characters like the Nebulan named Boomer or the Decepticon named Rumble.
Animated series
A Guardian Boomer appeared in Challenge of the GoBots episode 9, "Terror in Atlantis". In the episode he is not mentioned by name, only called a Guardian Boomer. He is depicted as a mindless vehicle piloted by the Guardian's human allies. He is colored in blue like Renegade Boomer Blast.
Several Rumble Boomers appeared in "Mission: GoBotron" aiding the Guardians in their acquisition of materials to help build GoBotron.
Rumble and Blast appeared together in a commercial for their toys.[1]
Comics
The Fun Publications stories describe Rumble Boomers as a drone mostly used by the Guardians. They are more heavily armored, but with less firepower than the Blast models usually used by the Renegades. Rumble Boomers are often seen defending the GoBotron Fortress.
Guardian Boomers appeared in the Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric episode 7-8 "The Hawks of Space". In the story Space Hawk factories were heavily defended by Guardian Boomer units.[2]
A squad of Guardian Boomers blasted Monsterous and Puzzler to their components in episode 59, "Six Heads Are Better Than One".[3]
