Fiction
Original Series
Senorite (or Ambassador) Anthony was the choosen human sent by the Ancient Zapbots Lighting, Knife and Bridge to rebuild the Zapbot race. When the Matrix landed in his backyard, it proceeded to give him numerous knowledge on how to reconstruct the Zapbots with human technology. He then built the first batch of Zapbots (including the Tech Team.)
During the initial battle with the Junkicons his body was badly damaged and artificial parts were recreated for his limbs. This gave him extra abilities. He was then given an X-O Suit to assist with battles and then this too was reconstructed to become the head of Shortstop when Fortress Misslemax was created.
He is the keeper of the Zapbot Matrix of Leadership which adjusts to the size of a human or Zapbot body depending on who is holding it.
His X-O suit has several alt transformations such as a mini-jet (that holds about three people) etc... This has been used to transport his human body with friends on various adventures.
Behind the Scenes
In the stories my body reconstruction was very similar to Robocop in that I had article parts created (you could also say Six Million Dollar Man etc...) Everything except the important stuff if you know what I mean... *wink wink*
I didn't realize it at the time but basically my X-O suit was very similar to an Ironman suit. This was WAY before any of the Ironman movies or the fact I knew of 'Tony Stark.' But basically it was an extension of a utility suit that allowed me to go on various adventures. I way overused this mechanism in several stories.
