Evac (Ride)
| The name or term "Evac" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Evac (disambiguation). |
- Evac is an Autobot from the Transformers: The Ride portion of the live-action film continuity family.
Evac is a little new at this, but don't worry. He's had plenty of NEST training, and the last thing he's going to do now that he's finally getting his shot at the front lines is let something happen to his cargo, whether it's Autobot MechTech technology, a load of new NEST recruits, or even the last shard of the AllSpark! He's as quick and as nimble as they come, but his combat training means he can hold his own in a firefight, too.
In theory, anyway.
Fiction
Transformers: The Ride
- Voice actor: Dustin James Leighton (English)
Evac's first important mission on Earth began at a NEST base at Universal Studios, where he was assigned to transport you, your fellow trainees, and the last remaining shard of the AllSpark. Unfortunately, before he could get underway, Ravage broke into the base and attempted to steal the shard. Bumblebee was able to fight the Decepticon off and get the shard to Evac, who (along with his passengers) blasted free of the base and out into the city streets. With the help of Optimus Prime and Sideswipe, Evac survived a gauntlet of Decepticons including Grindor, Sideways, Bonecrusher and even the gargantuan Devastator.
Unfortunately, his escape from Devastator left him in the clutches of Starscream. Escaping with the aid of NEST helicopters, Evac attempted to help Optimus defeat Megatron high atop a building, but the two were ultimately forced to sacrifice the AllSpark shard to win, with Evac driving it into his enemy's chest and sending his lifeless body to the streets below.

Toys
Cyberverse
- Evac (Cyberverse Legion, 2012)
- Japanese ID number: EZ-13
- Accessories: Blaster
- Evac transforms from a robot to an enclosed-canopy version of his Transformers: The Ride vehicle mode. He includes a translucent red double-barreled blaster of the same sculpt used by Bumblebee and Arcee, which he can either hold or mount in various 3mm ports on his body.
- Despite being sold in packaging strongly resembling the Prime Cyberverse toys, he lacks the subline identifier; his European packaging, however, does have it.
Movie Trilogy/ Universal Studios
- Evac (Deluxe, 2012)
- An all-new, deluxe scale figure, Evac transforms into an approximation of the Transformers: The Ride vehicle with an enclosed canopy and even features molded seats where passengers and ride-goers would sit in the real thing. He does not come with any accessories though he does have four guns; one on each arm, and then two on the side of his abdomen (which end up inside of his vehicle mode grille) which can detach and are molded together on a rod which can fit in his hand due to the fact that his hands are molded to accommodate 5mm posts. This feature is undocumented, but probably only because it's not an intended use of the toy. His shoulders, forearm guns, and heels feature c joints; the heel c-joints allow for top-mounted attachments in vehicle mode.
Notes
- Evac has a pretty exciting life for a guy with only one fictional appearance. And it's all for your enjoyment!
- The vehicle riders sit in is styled after his vehicle mode.
- Evac's design is a modified version of Roadbuster, with a new head (resembling Sideswipe) and altered vehicle kibble.
- His Cyberverse legion toy packaging features different mugshot artwork than his deluxe sized Transformers: The Ride figures packaging, as well as a different set of tech-specs.
- The final version of Evac's deluxe figure lacks the weapon of his prototype figure.
