Carry-On
- Carry-On is an Zapbots Minicars from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Preferring to be left alone to contemplate the meaning of one's inner-spark, Carry-On doesn't enjoy the company of others. Carry-On's attitude is always one of negativity, which is why other Zapbots tend to leave him alone. A sturdy warrior in battle, Carry-On is hardly noticed unless there is something wrong of which he will speak his mind. Some have indicated that he occasionally is seen planting seeds in desert terrain for fun, but he has since denied any such activity. He is also an accomplished keyboardist who plays with his brother Pick-Up as a duo.

Behind the Scenes
Loved the character Gears in the Transformers cartoon show and wish they played him up even more in the series. Likewise with my Zapbots Carry-On was a grumpy, complaining grouch.
