This article is about the Generation 1 series Insecticlone. For the Cybertron-series Mini-Con, see Zapmap.
The Zaptraps are Insecticon clones from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Zaptraps are clones of the Insecticon Shrapnel. Though they have extremely limited intelligence and are largely operated by Shrapnel's control-beams, in large numbers they are fairly capable hunter-seeker units, capable of producing powerful electric bolts from their horns. Though they're fairly sturdy, should Shrpanel's control-beams be interrupted, they will instantly crumble into a pile of component parts.


Fiction

Technically, the Zaptraps have never appeared in any fictions, as this specific coloration has never been used. However, the Zaptrap designation can be considered retroactive, so any appearance of the Shrapnel-model Insecticlones can be considered Zaptraps.


Toys

Generation 1

  • Insectron Clone Army (multi-pack, 2004)
Japanese ID number: 75 (individual), 76 (clones set)
A redeco of the Insecticon Shrapnel mold in it original Diaclone coloration, Zaptrap transforms into a mechanical stag beetle. The "control seat" in the insect-mode back / robot-mode chest can open up and store one of the three energon cubes that come with the set. Zaptrap was only available in the e-hobby exclusive set with Salvo and Shothole.
