| This article is about the unreleased Generation 2 Go-Bot. For the Generation 1 Micromaster, see Greasepit (G1). |
- Greasepit would have been an Autobot from the Generation 2 portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Greasepit is a bold, showboating thrill-seeker and the brother of Gearhead. He drove around in a truck with a deploying ramp; he loved jumping off this ramp because it made the crowds cheer for him and gave him a chance to try landing on Decepticons and crushing them.
At least, that's what he would have been, if his toy had come out.
Toys
Generation 2
- Go-Bots Racing Rig (1995)
- Greasepit was going to be a redeco of Gearhead, transforming into a Ford Thunderbird stock car with through-axle tires, making him largely compatible with "Hot Wheels" and "Matchbox" playsets and tracks. He would have been packaged with the Go-Bots Racing Rig vehicle/playset.
- It appears both Greasepit and the Racing Rig never made it to "mass-production-ready" state, as samples of Greasepit himself are just Gearheads painted over. It's quite possible his colors would have further changed (as well as that packaging mock-up art) had he actually been produced.
- This mold (the car, not the unmade giant truck) was also used to make Go-Bots Soundwave, Robots in Disguise W.A.R.S., and the Universe version of Camshaft.
