Evo-Fusion
Evo-Fusion is a technique that strengthens and evolves weapons. It differs depending on the characteristics of each Transformer, and its possibilities are infinite.[1]
Toys
Legacy: Evolution
The primary gimmick of Legacy: Evolution, Evo-Fusion is a continuation of Siege's "C.O.M.B.A.T. System", focusing on interactivity between weapons and figures through the use of 5 mm posts. Succeeding the Weaponizers is a new tribe of modular Junkions that can mix and match body parts and accessories to create unique robot and vehicle modes, or armor and weaponry for other bots. In a first for the concept, these Junkions can transform without the need for partsforming.
For most characters who had toys prior to Legacy, the "Evo-Fusion" gimmick is simply re-enacting features that the original toys had. Otherwise, the Evo-Fusion ability is once again about combining weapons to form new ones.
Notably, Evolution Core Class figures are not advertised to have Evo-Fusion abilities.
