She's a super freak, super freak
She's super-freaky, yow!

The traitorous Junkion Axlegrease rocks the blue and purple look. She's got a dangerous amount of weapons , and she "borrows" the parts of opponents she defeats , so it's a pity the Decepticons have hired her services first.

Toys

Legacy

• Axlegrease (Deluxe Class, 2023)
  • Accessories: Engine block/ blasters, exhaust pipes, thrusters, hook

• Known designers: Mark Maher (Hasbro), Takio Ejima (TakaraTomy), Marcelo Matere (concept art)

Part of the third wave of Legacy: Evolution Deluxe Class figures, Axlegrease is a retool of Scraphook and transforms into a junky, post-apocalyptic muscle car. She includes Scraphook's exhaust pipes and hook, but instead of his towing arm, she includes two thrusters which can be used as cannons for her robot mode. Her vehicle engine block splits to form two blasters as well.

Her Evo-Fusion function is analogous to the Weaponizer gimmick from the War for Cybertron Trilogy toylines: her body splits apart to form armor and weapon enhancements for her allies. Unlike previous figures of this nature, Axlegrease does not need to be disassembled to change from robot to vehicle and back.

According to her design notes (below), her head sculpt is based on Nancy, while her color scheme is based on the Shattered Glass Junkions.
