Comments: Tracks was the guy in the cartoon who always loved the way he looked. And why not? He is slick and deserves to be arrogant. His vehicle form in the action figure is identical to his cartoon counterpart. The robot form is a little cheesier but still delivers. Although not put together as well as other Autobot cars, Tracks looks great.

Tracks is a blue Corvette. His vehicle form is very true to a real Corvette. He's mainly a blue color. However, once the stickers are applied, you see a huge flame on the hood. He has a great vehicular form......it's slick!!

To transform him you do a few well timed twists and turns. He has a spring on his legs which actually are pulled down. This spring can wear down overtime and not snap back into place. That's one big problem I have noticed with Tracks figures. If you just purchased one...be gentle to avoid this. His robot form is nice. Once the huge rocket launchers are placed on his head plate he looks even better.

Tracks figures just don't seem to hold up as well as others over time. I think because he's made a little cheesier than others from the first couple years. I noticed an arm problem as well (where the arm snaps off of the joints). But, if you take care of him you should have no problem.

Tracks looks great. His vehicle form is very slick and the robot form is passable. A great buy (but look for one that's not broken before making a deal!)

 

 


"Looking good is what life is all about."

Called "Lousy Earth-lover" by some fellow Autobots because he prefers sleek Earth car form to original robot form. Thinks they're jealous of his good looks but they feel struggle against Decepticons should be his top concern. As car goes 280 mph...uses wings under rear fenders for sub-sonic flight. As car or robot uses launcher to fire heat-seeking incendiary missiles 60 miles. Has blinding black beam gun.
