Echoes and Fragments

For their own amusement, Sideways and Gong played with reality so that elements of a Gargent stream blended in and out of a Primax stream. After the first reality-shift, Slicks and the Renegades assaulted a Command Center on its way to Autobot City on Earth. When the crew was disabled, Slicks, Cop-Tur, Crasher, and Psycho assumed the controls. Several shifts later, Slicks was among the injured Renegades and Decepticons fleeing the Battle of Autobot City aboard Astrotrain with their weakened leader, Megatron. On their way back to Cybertron, Zero used a thin pretext to toss Megatron, Slicks, and the other injured soldiers out into space. They were found by Unicron, who recruited Megatron to be his servant in exchange for reformatting the villain and his troops into new bodies. Crasher became the warrior known as Fracture, while Slicks became her similar-bodied "armada" of one. Echoes and Fragments

Notes

• Jim Sorenson and Jesse Wittenrich floated the idea of reusing the prototype Generation 1 Tailgate toy as a new body for Slicks, paralleling Hubcap as Rest-Q, but no decision was ever made prior to Fun Publications losing the Transformers Collectors' Club license.
