I don't read the interviews, but I'm gonna assume that ol' Jalopy's pronouns are They/Them unless the designers clarified it.
 
Alternatively, "Jalopy" already exists a word for a rusty-ass car

Jalopy is an Autobot Junkion Weaponizer from the Age of the Primes portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Were you expecting me to be a Jazz redeco?

Jalopy is a Junkion who is capable of splitting itself to form pieces of armor for anyone who fights with 'em!

Toys

=Age of the Primes

  • Junkion Jalopy (Deluxe Class, 2023)
  • Accessories: Left & right engine block halves/blasters, left & right exhaust pipes, left & right thrusters
Age of the Primes Jalopy is a redeco of Legacy Axlegrease, in turn a retooling of Scraphook. They include Scraphook's exhaust pipe and Axelgrease's two thrusters that can be used as cannons, but don't come with a hook. Jalopy's vehicle engine block splits to form two blasters as well. As with the original mold, their lower elbow joints are made of a softer plastic, which often causes their arms to pop off when attempting to rotate or transform them, but they're just as easily reattached. Again, due to said softer plastic, it's generally impossible for him to wield medium-to-larger weapons unless the arms are raised horizontally to the front.
Being a redeco/retool of the Scraphook/Axelgrease mold, Jalopy retains the Evo-Fusion function, analogous to the Weaponizer gimmick from the War for Cybertron Trilogy toylines: Jalopy's body splits apart to form armor and weapon enhancements for their allies. Unlike previous figures of this nature, Jalopy does not need to be disassembled to change from robot to vehicle and back, similar to other Legacy Junkions.
