    Warning-light is based on the Tomahawk. Like seth said it has two Viper engines and turns like he was explaining. However it cannot turn real well. I imagine the "Independent Company" went with a tomahawk because of its size. It's real large. The big flaw of the protectobots was scale, this is a way to make it more scalable. By the way the Tomahawks top speed has never been reached because no one can endure or handle the force from this thing.

    Yay. Been waiting for for the TFCon roundup episode and it has my question too. True, it is one that takes alot of thinking. Would love to hear other people's answers in the thread too. If people get into the idea will post mine since it was too long to read. :)

    How could you not suggest a Swerve combiner with Bluestreak & Blurr thrown in the mix. Maybe with Brainstorm thrown in for no apparent reason. Plus Tailgate.

    Eh, bored so will post my idea anyway, maybe get the ball rolling a little....

    Wreckgar, with his animated altmode and personality, is put in charge of a small group of Autobots who have been deemed unfit for regular duty due. They all have Public Works vehicle modes and basically are in charge of cleaning up the aftermath of battles with the decepticons. One day they accidentally stumble across a 'Con where they were experimenting with combiner reformatting and the six of them become a Devastator-style combiner know as Wreckibotronitor

    Below are the members, with their alt modes, positions, why they were put on the team, signature weapon and what they bring to the combined form.

    Wreckgar's Irregulars

    Phalt
    Altmode: Street Paver
    Position: Communications, Right Arm
    Issue: Major Anger Issues, took swing at Ultra Magnus
    Weapon: Tar Blaster.
    Gestalt Attribute: Rhythm.

    Wipe
    Altmode: Street Sweeper
    Position: Medic, Left Arm
    Issue: Obsessive Clean Freak, destroyed vital intel cleaning drive
    Weapon: Grinder Hammer
    Gestalt Attribute: Keen Spatial Awareness.

    Washout
    Altmode: Water/Sewer Tanker
    Position: Equipment Manager, Right Leg
    Issue: Extreme Laziness, wandered out of battle to get a drink
    Weapon: Water Cannon
    Gestalt Attribute: Sense of Direction

    Freeze-Up
    Altmode: Snowplow/Street Salter
    Position: Cook, Left Leg
    Issue: Upbeat, but has tendency to Power Down at random.
    Weapon: Rocksalt Shotgun
    Gestalt Attribute: Optimism

    Haywire
    Altmode: Power Co. Ladder Truck
    Position: Inventor/Science Officer and Chest/Head
    Issue: Scatterbrained & Glitchy from invention shorts & mishaps
    Weapon: Tesla Cannon
    Gestalt Attribute: Left-Handedness

    And Of Course....

    Wreckgar
    Altmode: Garbage Truck
    Position: Leader, Crotch (announced Voltron style whenever they combine)
    Issue: He's Wreckgar
    Weapon: Garbage.
    Gestalt Attribute: Sense of Humor

    Hey Seth, G1 Dragstip was a real car, specifically the F1 racer, the Tyrrell P34, but I agree that I like my FP Stunticons as is, and that kit and it's knee guns do nothing for me, though the Stunicons are my favorite combiner team :/
