Gears (G1)

This article is about the Generation 1 Autobot Gears. For the seasoning, grated gears, see Grated Gears.

Gears is an Autobot from Generation 1 continuity.

Gears hates Earth, a lush, green planet practically as unlike his cozy, gray, metallic homeworld as possible. He grumbles and complains about being shipwrecked on it -- complains and grumbles to a ridiculous extent, until he becomes a source of amusement, rather than negativity. This is usually his intent -- unlike his fellow ||Minibot|| ||Huffer||, Gears has a desire to help his fellow Autobots see good in a bad situation. Still, he does get depressed from time to time.

Gears is strong and tough, not so much in lifting but in endurance, and carrying heavy loads with little effort, be they energon cubes, disabled Autobots, or potatoes for the farmers' market. He is fitted with infrared vision sensors.

In robot mode, Gears can release controlled bursts of compressed air from his feet, launching himself to altitudes over 100,000 feet, and floating back down. He used this ability when fighting alongside ||Spider-Man||, and accidentally displayed its one failing when he ran out of air and crashed to the ground. He was patched up again, though.

Hmm...strength...endurance...infravision...bad attitude...Gears is a D&D dwarf! Protect your mithril, everyone.
