Anthony is the human that transforms into Shortstop's Head.
Ambassador Anthony was the chosen human picked by the Matrix of Leadership, 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 knowledge on how to reconstruct the Zapbots with human technology. He proceeded to build the first batch of Zapbots.
During the initial battle with the Junkicons, his body was badly damaged and artificial parts were recreated for his limbs. This gave him some extra abilities. He was then given an X-O Suit to assist with battles and 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.
His X-O suit has several alt transformations such as a mini-jet (that holds about three people.) This has been used to transport his human body with companions on various adventures.

Behind the Scenes
In the stories, my body's 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 may have overused this mechanism in several stories. In short, all you have to know is a bionic man, inside of an X-O suit, that becomes a head, of a head of a head... etc...
