*In Ultimate Spider-Man, the Destroyer made an appearance as an antagonist in the episode "Itsy Bitsy Spider". It was described as the greatest weapon of Asgard and said to be an Asgardian machine. At some point, it had battled Thor where a Norn Stone became embedded in its chest and the armor fell into the Hudson River. Spider-Man and his S.H.I.E.L.D. team encountered it where they inadvertently activated the Norn Stone turning them into Chibi style toddlers. Loki later took control of the Destroyer Armor and sent it to battle Thor along with other superheroes. After failing to defeat them, Loki decided to put his body into the Destroyer to control it directly as it lacked intelligence of its own. The superheroes later removed the Norn Stone from the Destroyers chest and tricked Loki into reversing his transformation of the heroes whilst he himself was being turned into a Chibi style toddler.
 
*In Avengers Assemble, the Destroyer appeared as an antagonist in the episode "The Doomstroyer". It was described as a powerful Asgardian superweapon that was animated by another and had been lost for ages. Doctor Doom discovered it after he was stranded in Helheim and animated the armor with his spirit at the '''Helhorn''' whereupon he had it return to Latveria. With its power, Doom was able to defeat invading Hydra and AIM forces before the Destroyer engaged the Avengers in battle. To find a weakness in the weapon, Thor brought with him his brother Loki as they discovered that Doom was animating the weapon remotely and that his spirit would eventually dissipate unless he stopped. Thus, Captain America with Falcon accompanied Thor and Loki to Helheim as they sought out Doctor Doom whilst Black Widow, Hawkeye, Hulk and Iron Man fought the Destroyer in Latveria. After seeing the damage he did to Latveria, Doom abandoned the Destroyer with Loki animating it but before Loki took control the Avengers sent it into orbit where it was powerless in space.
