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.

The toughened and fearless new Junkion cadet Scraphook is built like a particularly heavy truck.<ref>Hasbro Pulse official description</ref> This bruiser is of average intelligence and isn't terribly fast, but his powerful dual phaser blasters unleash disabling electromagnetic energy pulses. Scraphook can also lend parts of himself to other Junkions to serve as armor, or even combine with other Junkions to form combiners!<ref>Legacy QR code profile page</ref> And if everyone else is busy, he's proficient in delivering his own "elbow hook drop" and his patented "junkpile driver." Wait, how did he lose the eye?<ref name="insta2"/>

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: Towline, tow hook, 2 spoilers, wheel shield, 2 blasters
Part of the first wave of Deluxes in Legacy: Evolution, Scraphook transforms into a spiky tow truck. 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 transform via partsforming.
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"/>
Scraphook comes with a whopping seven different accessories, which can all be integrated into his truck mode.
This figure was scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2023 but arrived at Philippine retail in late November 2022.

Notes

I'm also Scraphook.
  • One of Scraphook's earlier designs<ref name="insta2">Behind the scenes on Scraphook from Mark Maher on Instagram.</ref> (from when he transformed backwards from how the final toy transforms) makes an appearance on the Legacy: Evolution packaging mural.

Foreign names

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