Scraphook is an Autobot-allied Junkion Weaponizer from the Legacy portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
And there... at the end of the scrap... was a HOOK.

Toys

Legacy

Whatever you do, DO NOT EAT the free pistachio ice cream! It has TURNED.
  • Scraphook (Deluxe Class, 2023)
    • TakaraTomy ID number: TL-30
    • Accessories: Tow-arm, tow hook, left & right exhaust pipes, wheel shield, 2 engine-blower "dual phaser blasters"
Part of the first wave of Deluxes in Legacy: Evolution, Scraphook transforms into a junky, post-apocalyptic, weirdly-symmetrical-damage-having tow truck. He's outfitted with a whopping seven different accessories, which can all be integrated into his truck mode. His wheels are separated from his hubcaps, so you'll find that they're quite stationary, meaning any accessories plugged into the rims' 5 mm post-holes similarly never spin.
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, Scraphook does not need to be disassembled to change from robot to truck and back. You might want to a bit though, as some of his bits can be a tight fit in vehicle mode, especially his arms/truck-bed.
Most of the tan color visible on his truck mode is painted gray plastic, so be careful not to rub it off.
As per designer Mark Maher, Scraphook is pointedly color-matched to the Junkions' fearless leader Studio Series 86-09 Voyager Class Wreck-Gar.<ref name="insta1"/>
This figure was scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2023 but arrived at Philippine retail in late November 2022.
Scraphook was later retooled into fellow (well... not so fellow) Junkion Axlegrease.

Notes

I'm also Scraphook.

Foreign names

  • Japanese: Scraphook (スクラップフック Sukurappufukku)
