- Roller car is an accessory from the Generation 1 continuity family.

Toys
Generation 1
- Motormaster (Stunticon, 1986)
- Team ID number: S5
- Japanese ID number: D-50
- Roller car was included with Generation 1 Motormaster, and is scaled to drive down his ramp in "base" mode. The Japanese release also includes a launcher mechanism to propel the roller car, but it was cut out for Western markets. The roller car is also combiner kibble, forming the chest piece for Menasor.
- Menasor (Giftset, 1986)
- Japanese ID number: D-55
- Motormaster and the roller car were also available as part of a Menasor giftset.
Generation 2
- Motormaster (Stunticon)
- Team ID number: S1
- A purple roller car would have been included with Generation 2 Motormaster, but this release was canceled.

Notes
- The roller car was left out of almost all Generation 1 fiction, including Motormaster's toy bio. Unlike Trypticon's Full-Tilt, the roller car was even left off Menasor's character model in both the Generation 1 cartoon and Marvel comics. The term "roller car" comes from Motormaster's instruction sheet.
