The Junkion known as Crashbar may not be as big as his fellow Junkion bikes, but he can prove to be a big challenge to any Decepticon who comes across him. He's also particularly fast... to a fault, considering he'll often crash into lots of things in his path. Thankfully, being a Junkion, damage is temporary to him.

Crashbar carries two gravity cannons, but also can use his exhaust pipes as clubs or his rear wheel as a sawblade when he'd rather get his hands dirty.

Toys

Legacy

• Crashbar (Deluxe Class, 2023)
  • Accessories: 2 saddle bag/gravity cannons, 2 exhaust pipe/clubs, back tire/sawblade

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

Part of the second wave of Deluxes in Legacy: Evolution, Crashbar transforms into a motorcycle. His Evo-Fusion function is analogous to the Weaponizer gimmick from the War for Cybertron Trilogy toylines; his body splits apart to form armor and weapon enhancements for his allies. Unlike previous figures of this nature however, Crashbar does not transform via partsforming.

Crashbar comes with five different accessories, which can all be integrated into his motorcycle mode.

Notes

• Crashbar shares facial hair with his designer, Mark Maher.
• Both Dan Khanna and Marcelo Matere did concept sketches for the toy that would become Crashbar. Khanna's contribution was a drawing of HAZMAT, suggesting it was possible at some point in production this toy could have become him instead.
