Gas-Bot was left behind at the [[Go-Pod]] along with Kid-Bot, [[Buzzer-Bot]] and [[Beast-Bot]] when the rest of the Go-Bot Protectors moved out to stop [[Silver-Bot]]'s antics. The four did keep an eye on the situation through their camera system and thus saw [[Aero-Bot]] being challenged by Silver-Bot to a race. Kid-Bot and the others greatly worried about Aero-Bot's safety, what with the hurricane approaching and all. But Aero-Bot wasn't team leader for nothing, easily outflying and later saving Silver-Bot.

Once information got to the Go-Pod that another renegade Go-Bot was causing trouble on Earth, this one called [[Mototron]], Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot opted to be a bit more proactive. Knowing that Speed-Bot was going along to stop Mototron, Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot hid in his trunk and didn't come out until [[Strong-Bot]] contacted Speed-Bot and Beast-Bot to ask if they'd seen the youngsters anywhere. Trying to show some goodwill, the duo ran up to the nearest oil pipe broken  by Mototron and tried clearing the way. However, they were far too weak to get it to move even an inch, which amused Beast-Bot to no end. He ordered Speed-Bot to keep an eye on them while he'd clean up the pipes, but as soon as he had left, Mototron showed up and challenged Speed-Bot to a race. Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot liked the prospect of a race, but Speed-Bot reminded them they had more important things to do. Hearing this, Mototron declared Speed-Bot a weakling and raced off into a mine, upon which Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot followed before Speed-Bot could stop them. Inside the mine, the duo found a minecart, which they used to go after Mototron faster. However, Mototron's careless behavior caused the tunnel to collapse around Kid-Bot and Gas-Bot.

This article is in need of images.

Specifics: fiction, toys
Gas-Bot is a Go-Bot from the Go-Bots portion of the Go-Bots continuity family.
So if Speed-Bot is the fastest, and Strong-Bot is the strongest, what does that make Gas-Bot?

Gas-Bot is a young, easily excited Go-Bot that, due to his affiliation with Speed-Bot, is part of the Go-Bot Protector team on Earth. He is inseparable from his buddy Kid-Bot, and like him doesn't so much speak as produce chirps that may or may not be understood by the rest of the Go-Bots.

But seriously, he's a walking gas pump. What.

[edit]
