Junior's Bazooka was a rocket launcher-club hybrid weapon owned by Junior Xiong. He is first seen wielding the weapon in the "Yellow" Trailer.
Description[]
The weapon is gray, black and red and has two different forms: a club form and a bazooka form. The latter form has the ability to launch multiple rockets simultaneously.
History[]
Junior used it to fight Yang Xiao Long after she beat up all of his Henchmen. During the fight she activated her Semblance and broke his weapon.
Trivia[]
- The animation used when Junior's Bazooka fires is similar to, or the same as, the missile pod used in Red vs. Blue Season 10, a previous work of Monty Oum.
- At the RWBY panel at RTX 2013, Monty stated that when designing the weapon, he wanted to give a more toned-down look in comparison to previous weapons. However, after being unsatisfied with simply giving Junior a bat and a couple grenades, he decided to add a bazooka component to the bat.[1]
- The weapon's appearance could possibly be based on a bottle of alcohol, as in its club form, it shares a visual similarity. Furthermore, when broken by Yang, the Bazooka behaved like a glass bottle would when it is broken, having jagged and sharp edges where it was shattered.
