Fiction

Legends comic

Cargot told Chromedome and Hardhead not to bother Highbrow in his research, and was called a "slug" by Hardhead in return. When Highbrow finally came out of his room, he used Cargot's weapon mode to defeat Weirdwolf and his microscope mode to study the Zodiac. Bonus Edition Vol. 33 Cargot was used by Highbrow during the construction of Godbomber. Bonus Edition Vol. 42 Highbrow and Papika used Cargot's "flying bathtub" mode to chase after Katsu Don after he stole Perceptor's head, as well as his weapon mode while confronting the alien. Bonus Edition Vol. 56 Cargot later carried Perceptor to a confrontation with the Decepticon Clones. Bonus Edition Vol. 61

  • Highbrow (Deluxe, 2016)
Available with the Legends Highbrow figure, Cargot is a redeco of Titans Return Loudmouth's accessory, in Highbrow's colors. The Headmaster form of Highbrow can ride Cargot in robot mode. Cargot can also transform into a large blaster for larger Titans Return or any Legends Headmaster figures to wield, or combine with the Headmaster to form an attack vehicle.
As seen in the pack-in comic, Cargot can also turn into a "Microscope mode" by turning the gun mode vertically with the barrel facing upwards, and flipping out the handle...although Highbrow's closed fists cannot wield it.
Unlike most of the redecoed Titan Master vehicle accessories, Cargot's gun mode handle does not seem to easily pop off when wielded by many 5 mm post-compatible closed hands. Also, the handle is slightly thin for both open and closed hands to wield.
