Mobile Autobot Repair Bay

The Mobile Autobot Repair Bay is a Transformer vehicle from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Well, it's no Segway, but it'll do.

A Mobile Autobot Repair Bay, or M.A.R.B., is an extremely versatile Autobot vehicle. It is a hovering vehicle, equipped with sensors sophisticated enough to detect life signs buried below several meters of tar despite four million years of hibernation. It also possesses a high-pressure hose able to blast away said tar, and enough gear to patch into a Transformer's mind and display their memories on a monitor.
