    At last my Stunticon auxilary pair are done. Two crazy ladies for the rowdy crew of psychotic drivers - Rollcage and Crasher.

    Now onto the profiles. This is all on the spot so apologies if it's not up to snuff.

    Name: Crasher
    Alternate Mode: Modified F1 Racer
    Function: Sabotage Expert
    Quote: "You expected a strike team but I'm much more."
    Profile: As former criminal gang member Crasher knows the ins and outs of Cybertron's underground. She was ditched by her former crew who believed her to be too unstable and rescued by Dead End and Breakdown who brought her into their team. Now Crasher helps the Stunticons in their races and battles by performing as their spy. Whether it's making sure a rival team doesn't reach the race track or hunting down annoying reporters Crasher is eager to get her hands dirty.

    Name: Rollcage
    Alternate Mode: Street Speeder
    Function: Intelligence
    Quote: "Someone has to be the brains to this group's brawn."
    Profile: Although not one for speed Rollcage had to find a new career and found one working as Motormaster's assistant. With continued service she grew accustom to supporting her teammates in battle. This became more useful whenever her boss tried to make a move on her. Nothing says "no" like a hot blaster pointed at sensitive body parts.

    Notes:
    * I've always had the idea that the Stunticons were the type of crowd who would cause trouble in a gentlemen's club so to add female characters is a bit weird for me.
    * This newer Crasher was made to provide a greater difference between the character and Dragstrip.
    * Motormaster is actually a fan of Rollcage during her career on "Playbot" magazine and couldn't stand to see his idol in distress which is why he hired her. He also hired her as a means of bragging of possessing a (former) celebrity in his squad.
    * Rollcage is familiar with one other former model with due to their former occupation. Both dropped their careers under different circumstances.
    * I actually wish I got Wheeljack sooner as it fits Rollcage better to her original vehicle design.
    * Rollcage's Universe design was highlighted in the fashion trend known as "Slender Season". When the season was over she ditched the look and promoted the next fashion craze.
    * While doing Crasher I kept thinking Hasbro should've done online exclusives of alternative characters. Not like AB, Offroad, or Rook but instead established characters you could see fitting in with a combiner team regardless if able to combine or not.

    I love when a custom has story behind it. It shows dedication and imagination and lets the audience appreciate the work that much more.
    Very cool looking figures!

    Rollcage is probably based off of the Transformers Universe character of the same name.

    Correct. I feel the TF: Universe cast need some attention in the toy apartment. Since Hasbro won't do anything I figured why not do it myself.

    No that quote is from Catapult's trailer. Rollcage never got a profile before the game's cancellation.
