→Legends: Please take care when copy-pasting across articles. Text saying "a redeco of the figure above" when there IS no "figure above" ain't great. And don't make people link-hop for toy info, include all the relevant stuff. |

- ID number: LG53
- Known designers: John Warden (Hasbro)
- Part of the twenty-third wave of Takara's Legends toyline, available only as a pack-in with the larger Broadside toy, the "Repug Armor" is a redeco of the Titans Return Repugnus armored "shell" macro-accessory. It transforms from a robotic insect monster based on the original Repugnus toy to a bladed non-firing double-barred blaster, or a jet-like vehicle with four thrusters molded into the legs. There is a compartment for Titan Master/Legends Headmaster figures, which fit inside the beast and weapon modes as a folded-up component, but "pilots" the jet mode as a robot.
- The two pegs at the bottom front of the beast shell's torso can be used to connect Titan Master/Headmaster feet, though none of the modes use them in this way. In an undocumented or possibly unintended feature, moving the beast head forward and inserting the Titan Master behind it with arms raised allows the feet to peg firmly here, creating a "rider" mode. The notch in the back of the neck strut is just wide enough to accommodate the waist of the Titan Master.
