"Overhaul was repurposed as Overhaul" - Transformers canon in one caption, everybody.

• Overhaul (Scout, 2005)
  • Japanese ID number: GC-05
  • Accessories: Missile, Cybertron Autobot Cyber Key (Takara only), Jungle Planet Key (Hasbro only)

Overhaul was repurposed as Overhaul in the Transformers Legends game.

Part of the first wave of Cybertron Scout Class toys, Overhaul transforms into an off-road vehicle similar to a Humvee. Plugging a Cyber Key into his robot mode back launches his chest-mounted missile (you can do this in car mode too, but the missile is blocked). For his Takara release, he came with a silver-bordered Cybertron Autobot Cyber Key. For his Hasbro release, he came with a silver Jungle Planet key, with the Key Code "s9d7" on the back. There are rumors that a later release of the Japanese version was changed to a Jungle key, but this has not been confirmed.

This mold was redecoed and slightly retooled to make Brushguard and Transformers (2007) Warpath. Warpath was repurposed as Shattered Glass Crosshairs.
