Fiction
Ask Vector Prime
In Aurex 203.26 Zeta, Oil Slick, Ransack, and Refute were battling Swerve and Roadhandler when Unicron abducted them.

Toys
Universe
- Crystal Widow vs Oil Slick (Multi-pack, 2004)
- Available only in a K-Mart exclusive 2-pack with the Autobot Crystal Widow, Oil Slick is a redeco and minor retool of the Armada Side Swipe mold, with the chest plate's molded Autobot sigil replaced with a molded Decepticon sigil.
- He comes with a Search and Destroy Robot mini-partner that can store in a flip-out section of the back end of Oil Slick's vehicle mode. Pressing down on the sigil plate in vehicle mode swings his car hood halves forward in a spring-loaded attack. These hood parts end up on his arms in robot mode, giving him a spring-loaded attack in that mode. Attaching the Search and Destroy Robot (or any other Mini-Con mold) to the Powerlinx plug on his back activates a "punching" action gimmick in his left arm.
- The same mold is used by Treadshot, and a heavily-retooled version was released in the Cybertron toyline as Runamuck.
Notes
- As Oil Slick's toy was packaged with a "versus Crystal Widow" theme, he may be from a G1 universe.
