The Cycle-Droid series was a Japanese cartoon in the late eighties riding on the coat tails of popular Scifi cartoons that came earlier. Unfortunately the series didn't take off and was cancelled after only six episodes. Consequently the toy line, in full production at the time, was scrapped and the remaining inventory was shipped off to discount vendors and never heard from again.
That's where droid found himself for the next twenty or so years. Collecting dust in his box on a dirty shelf at the back of a flea market until a little boy found him and took him home. At first he was just a cool motorcycle for his Small's other toys but as time went by Droid quickly became the star. If it was chasing down space bandits through the asteroid belts or racing on the saturn's rings he was always with the boy. He even joined him at bath time and in the families pool, racing across the water and splashing his boy's sister.
Personality and Description:
Droid is a motorcycle robot through and through. Hot headed, reckless, loud and competitive and will go to any length to protect his small even if he winds up with dents or scratched paint because he knows that his small is always happy to clean, fix, paint and sometime customize him.
Underneath layers of hot rod paint and armour pieces and weapons scavenged from Combat Carl vehicles and the more popular 'Transmorphers' line of vehicle robots Droid is an eighties anime transforming motorcycle. He could find himself wielding cannons or missile launchers or even glow in the dark swords depending on whatever his small decided was necessary for the day's adventure.

Hobby Glue: (Warning! Use with parents supervision) a tube of fast setting hobby glue. The same glue Eddy always uses to fit Droid up after crashing or 'falling off the desk' at night. (Functions the same as Snuggle's sewing needle)
his Small:
The family calls his small 'Eddy' and they live in what they call a "small apartment" in the city. Eddy likes action cartoons and soldiers but anything with robots is best. He is a rather small, small with glasses who likes to build models, usually planes or tanks and such but never seems to finish them and has little shoe boxes of parts and pieces on his desk where he works. Eddy's father is something called a mechanical engineer and loves to help Eddy with his models (The only finished models Eddy has are the ones made by him and his dad together). Eddy's room is a mess most days so he never really notices when stuff gets moved during the nightly battles against the Bug King who claims the apartment building as his own.
