- Eggbot is a Maximal from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Despite being one of the "Egg Beasts", Eggbot (エッグボット Eggubotto) does not actually possess a beast mode. Regardless, he is remarkably brave for his small size and excels in hand-to-hand combat.
Like his fellow Egg Beasts, Eggbot is among the oldest operational Maximals.
Toys
Beast Wars
- Eggbot (Egg Beast, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: EC-3
- Eggbot transforms from a mechanical sphere (ostensibly an "egg" mode) into a robot. He is cast in translucent blue plastic except for a handful of chromed and die-cast parts. He has a non-removable keychain attached to his robot-mode back.
- This mold was also used to make Dark Eggbot and Kiss Players Star Dust.
Notes
- The molds used for the Egg Beasts originated as toys from the pre-Transformers Takara Microchange line, where they were called "Meteor Robo". They were retooled to include keychains for their Beast Wars release, which were retained for the molds' use in Kiss Players.
