Unquenchable thirst for knowledge...seeks it to exclusion of all else...Main role is to study the best ways the Autobots can adapt to Earth. Extremely smart. Scientific specialties are metallurgy, molecular chemistry, electrical engineering. As microscope, capable of powerful magnification. Lens barrel converts into powerful light cannon. Carries concussion rifle in robot mode. Absent minded. Lenses are his weakest part.

On the cartoon, Perceptor was always a bit of a weenie. He wasn't terribly good in a fight, and his accent just screamed "supercilious" even before you knew what the word meant. But the shoulder cannon looked cool, and the fact that he was a working microscope -- despite being only marginally more effective than a magnifying glass -- gave him real appeal. In fact, he came from the same "Microman" toy line that gave us Soundwave, Blaster and Megatron, among others.
