Toys
Rescue Bots
- Medix the Doc-Bot (2011)
- Press the flashers on the Medix's roof and his ambulance mode will automatically spring into robot mode. (Though you'll have to stand him up yourself.) Medix comes packaged with a DVD of the Rescue Bots episode "Under Pressure."
- The wave with Medix and Hoist was originally a bit scarce on retail shelves (though it hit Target clearance in some places), and as such the two demanded some hefty prices on the secondary market. However, there must have been a warehouse find or something, as eBay sellers eventually started listing them in large numbers for roughly original retail.
Playskool Heroes
- Medix the Doc-Bot (2015)
- A brand-new mold in the smaller Playskool Heroes scale, Medix once again transforms into an ambulance in a single "Easy 2 Do Conversion". Robot-to-ambulance conversion is done by pushing his arms in, and ambulance-to-robot by pulling them out. In ambulance mode, his back-end roof has a 5mm post-hole, nominally to mount the concurrent Rescue Bots Mini-Con partners in their rescue modes.
- He has an entirely new headsculpt that arguably matches the cartoon's general aesthetic better.
Notes
- The package art for the first Medix toys shows him paired with Sawyer Storm. This was, of course, before the toyline shifted to better reflect the cartoon.
- His Playskool Heroes packaging art is just a recolored version of his original toy's.
