Energon (Unreleased)
A planned redeco of the Armada Street Speed Mini-Con Team member Backtrack, Override transforms into a Cadillac LXR luxury car. The coloration of the entire Team is a "one-off" of the colors of the Super Stunt Mini-Con Team.
Ultimately, Override was never released at retail. Originally intended to be packed in with Energon Ultra Magnus, the Street Speed redeco Team was displayed at OTFCC 2003, and the original versions were even pictured on the original Ultra Magnus boxes (Magnus himself appeared in Overload colors on the box, as he and the Armada redecoes Treadbolt and Rapid Run were very late additions to the very early part of the line). In the end, the Team was replaced with a redeco of the Space Mini-Con Team. Later releases of Ultra Magnus' box in other markets were altered to reflect this change.
Since Hasbro had gone through the process of trademarking the names, they were later used in the Cybertron line for the three most prominent residents of Velocitron.
The same mold is used by Redline and Side Burn, and a retooled version was used for Dice.
