First Look At Transformers Legacy: Evolution Autobot Medix Packaging

Posted on March 25, 2023 at 10:33 am by Black Convoy under Generations / Classics, Rescue Bots

Via fonziechavez we have our first look a the packaging of the new Transformers Legacy: Evolution Autobot Medix.

We had previously seen this redeco of Legacy Crankcase with Burnout’s head, as an homage to Rescue Bots Medix while back in 2022 but we had no other details about it. Now to our surprise, we have a look at the packaging in a very unexpected way. A Crosscut figure was ordered from Hasbro Pulse but he came in a Legacy Medix box. We can see Medix in robot and alt mode and his colorful Evo-Fusion weapon combination. We still have no concrete information if this figure will be an store exclusive or not or an specific release date. Stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates!
