Yes Crasher was always a race car, but it annoys me how now she's always an F1 racer. We couldn't have found a better sports car?

Colors look pretty good though.

I guess we haven't quite reached the point yet where Hasbro will substantially remold a toy in service of being a GoBots character. For now, we'll have to settle for redeco versions that kinda-sorta resemble the character, like what we used to get for G1 tributes. We've still got a long way to go.

I was really hoping Crasher was going to be a Legacy Drag Strip redeco. Yes, the six wheels are wrong, but the style of race car isn't a terrible fit, and I thought maybe they'd do some minor remolding so that the front scoop of the car ended up tucked behind her head in robot mode, and that this was the "real" reason why Drag Strip's scoop ends up splitting in half and ending up on his shoulders—because this placement was required for the later Crasher version. Crasher doesn't really have a feminine shape, but Drag Strip has got big, stompy boots that would have worked well for her.

I mean, she's better than Decepticon Fracture. But still.

We need all-new toys of the six main GoBots characters. That would be easier to do than all the Beast Wars characters who made screen appearances, certainly.

Zob (honestly wouldn't hate a Studio Series Wreck-Gar toy remolded as Cy-Kill)

PotP Jazz would have made a great Crasher. The vehicle mode looked more
like Crasher than it ever did Jazz.

You're the 5th person to say that to me since yesterday.

This is a terrible idea because PotP Jazz is a terrible toy, and Crasher has the car front on her back, not on her front. It's an OK car mode but a terrible Crasher robot.

Maybe if they had retooled Jazz like they did Classics Sunstreaker to make Crasher part of the fembot combiner back during PotP, but please don't go back to that mold now!

If you replace the clear plastic with just painted windows, you could
improve PotP Jazz a lot.
