| Hey buddy, yeah, you. You need a fill-up? Come on in! Yeah, come on in, just drive on up the ramp to [[Greasepit (G1)|Greasepit]]'s '''gas station'''. Naw, don't worry, the ramp ain't too steep. Naw, buddy, c'mon, would I lie to yas? It's fine! It's not too steep! It's A-D-A compliant! Yeah, ADA, and FHA, too, and FDA, yeah, and NBC. It's safe! Pull on up!

| Alright, there ya go, come on in. Fill 'er up! What, those things down there? Naw, those ain't ion cannons, naw. They're, uh, gasoline storage tank cannons, yeah, that's the ticket. What's that? Your fuel gauge is going ''down''? Don't worry, don't worry, that's normal, it's normal. It'll fix itself once you start drivin'. Siphon? Whaddaya ''talkin''' about? Greasepit don' lie!

| So, yeah, since you're a special customer, I'll tell yas a little secret. This here ''gas station''? It can turn all kinds of energy sources into Transformer-friendly [[Energon (fuel)|energon]]. And get this — it can also turn itself into a battle station. Yeah, a battle station! It's got cannons, rail guns, a sonic disruption tower, the whole shootin' works. Ha! "Shootin' works". Dat's pretty good, eh?

|
| |
| : The gas station was sold in a small boxed package, along with Greasepit. Stickers along the "building" portion simulate the inside of a garage repair bay and a convenience store, and advertise Super Gasoline Z-1. Two simulated gas pumps and a "Gas Station" sign complete the operation. Battle mode reveals a quad-gun, three blaster cannons, a non-firing missile and floodlights, plus the "GAS" sign becomes a radar panel.
| |
|
| |
| : Ramps allow the gas station to connect to other Micromaster stations to form larger "city" complexes.
| |
|
| |
| : In Japan, the station was sold without changes as the Autobot [[Glasspit]]'s "[[Gasoline Base]]".
