Calcar is a Decepticon in the Generation 2 portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

The Decepticons’ battle analyst, Calcar is a near-unfeeling machine with flawless memory for military history and tactics. And evil.

If I had feelings, my color scheme would make me cry.

Calcar transforms into a pink and gray off-road Cabriolet buggy. Like his fellow Trakkon Fearswoop (and the Autobot Lightformers), he comes with an artillery platform that can be mounted on his vehicle mode. The platform has a light-pipe gimmick and gear system that when turned gives the illusion of twin lasers being fired at the target when looked at through the platform’s targeting scope (even though Calcar's gun has only a single gatling-style rotating barrel).

He was sold only in the European and Australasian markets during the “transitional” time between Generation 1 and Generation 2.

Generation 2

• Calcar (Trakkon, 1994)
  • Accessories: Gun platform

This release is identical to the first, except sold on a blister card instead of a box.
