Description
A 'repaint' I did using Instructions for Energon Prowl downloaded from Hasbro's official Transformers website, [link]

Next on the list of members for the “Gestalt Project” Stunticons is Dragstrip. I used to have Dragstrip when I was a kid, and I really liked him. I don’t know why really, because his colors are awful, and like the other Stunticons, he just wasn’t that great a toy. But Ol’ G1 Mirage put a soft spot in my little heard for formula 1-esque TF’s, and it’s remained with me ever since, heh. It was a natural choice for which mold to use, as Eng Prowl is the only Formula-1ish car in both lines, though Arm Blurr was considered, though only briefly. After putting Dragstrip’s colors on this mold, and trying and trying and trying again to get his paint apps right (the figure had stickers of the most god awful racing stripes, but I wanted to be faithful to the G1 version, so…). I finally managed to get something I was happy with. Now that it’s done, the more I look at him, the happier I am with how he turned out. Ugly colors or not, I’d still buy this guy, happily even.
