Toys
Legacy
- G2 Universe Laser Cycle (Deluxe Class, 2022)
- Accessories: 2 Energon blades, front tire/Energon blaster
- Legacy "G2 Universe Laser Cycle" is a redeco of G2 Universe Road Rocket, itself a new head retool of Prime Universe Arcee toy, transforming into a '90s-style sportbike motorcycle. Laser Cycle includes the same Energon blade accessories as Arcee, but with additional paint decos in the center to resemble a shuriken. The blaster weapon formed by splitting the front tire can also be plugged into a 5 mm port on the robot mode back, allowing Laser Cycle to better resemble the original Road Rocket mold with its distinctive shoulder wheels. Unfortunately, the modern mold does not include a buzzsaw weapon like the original figure. Laser Cycle features Generation 2 Autobot insignia accurate to the original toy's line.
- Laser Cycle was revealed with full stock photography by a Taiwan-based eBay seller in mid-June 2023 ahead of any official announcement by Hasbro.
- The mold was also used for Shattered Glass Collection Decepticon Flamewar.
Notes
- Laser Cycle is based on a canceled 1995 Generation 2 Laser Cycle toy of Jazz, which was planned by Hasbro as a redeco of Road Rocket. Nearly 30 years after the fact, Hasbro resurrected the deco on the Legacy incarnation of Road Rocket, but given a different name trademark, allowing the motorcycle figure to coexist with the orange automobile figure in the same subline.
