Toys

Generation 2

• Greasepit (1995)
  • Accessories: Grill/rifle

Designed for Generation 2 but not seeing release before the line's demise, Greasepit transforms into a Kenworth W900 wrecker truck. The figure is a "flipchanger", meaning most of the transformation sequence is an autotransformation, springing into robot mode by lifting a catch, or rather in this case, the towing hook. The front grill/bumper assembly detaches to form a hand-held blaster.

Samples of all four prototypes, lacking paint and decals, have surfaced on the secondary market over the years, and TakaraTomy even displayed a set at Transformers Expo in 2014.
