Continuing the behind the scenes looks at the Legacy Evolution figure reveals, Hasbro designer Mark Maher has now posted on his Instagram one for the new Junkion character, Scraphook!
“Let me introduce our brand new Legacy Evolution Deluxe Junkion Scraphook!Takara Tomy’s Ejima Takio san really out did himself on this excellent new Junkion cadet. Also, big shout outs to @artguy101 and @marcelomatere on some of the concept art that was made for these new dudes. There was an enormous amount of art, work, and downright passion to make this new team of Junkions come to life! 😅Sweating just thinking about it!! 😂 I couldn’t be more proud of this Evo-Fusion system that is really going to optimize your play experience and overall joy across your past, present, and hopefully future collection!
.
First off, just check out this guys steel eye patch and metal mohawk. This guy has all of your favorite junkion style but with so much more awesomeness! Did I mention I used the same color specs with your Studio Series Wreckgar 😉
.
For those of you that have been collecting since our Seige line, you will notice that the 5mm post system we have utilized on all our past weaponizers and fossilizers, the same system will be used here. For those of you who are new to this ability, please take a ride on a space bridge portal (youtube) or even better yet, buy some of our fossilizers and start your own combinations to get the hang of the system.
.
The key element here, which was shown in the 86 animated Transformers movie that debuted the first Junkions, they were able to fall apart or lose arms and legs and other Junkions could just pick up and utilize those parts as their own arms, legs, weapons, and armor. Not only can you do that with these new Junkion characters but for the first time ever, you will be able to split apart the front and back of their vehicle modes and combine and customize vehicle modes across all our new Junkions!!! 🤯
.
You can see me utilizing our Kingdom Deluxe Weaponizer Slammer, WFC Deluxe Brunt, and WFC Deluxe FastTrack for the custom fan builds showcased here.
.
But THERES MORE!! Unlike our past weaponizers and fossilizers, our Junkions don’t partsform. Ejima san was able to figure out a way for these Junkions to have your traditional transformation sequence! 🤯 speechless…”

Thanks to our very own 2005 Boards member Zodiac1968340 we can share our first in-hand images of the new Transformers Studio Series Core Class Dark Of The Moon Laserbeak (Pink Bumblebee).
This is a new Core Class Bumblebee mold which tries to recreate the brief scene in Dark Of The Moon where Laserbeak transforms into a pink copy of Bumblebee. As we can see from the images he’s quite a detailed and poseable mold for his scale and it even comes with his own backdrop inspired from the film. A very nice addition to the Studio Series Core class collection.
See the new images after the jump and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
