My Favorite Knockoff from Dairycon 04

I got this in a trade from Crow back in April at the 2004 Dairycon. This thing grew on me. You know how something is so hideous, you just have to have it? Well, that's what this is. :-) It's a battery-powered car (rolls, lights up) that reminds me of the patrol car from the Andy Griffith show. Seriously, can't you see Matlock and Mr. Furley cruising down Main Street Mayberry in this bad boy?




And oh yea, if the old style body, and the yellowed plastic weren't enough...behold! It's a transformer! Oh my God!!! Obviously, it's an ancient Cybertonian visitor, doing recon here in the heartland of mom and apple pie. It's Prowl's grandpa! Behold his ancient, wizened stare and powerful spring-loaded grabber claws! Tremble in fear as he eats your styrofoam cups! He is power incarnate! Mwahahahaha!
