    Not bad though I don't collect non-Cyberverse Bayverse Autobots outside of Que/Wheeljack and Optimus Prime.

    If it is an exclusive I'd better buy 2.

    To all those saying he'll probably be a park-only figure, do you really think Hasbro would go to all the trouble of making a brand new mold just to sell it at a few theme parks? Besides, the Cyberverse figure is getting released normally, and if anything, I'd expect that to be the exclusive, since it would be cheaper to make and would probably sell better as a ride-exclusive item due to its smaller size and price.

    Not that I'm expecting Hasbro not to make yet another irrational business decision or anything...

    I'm gonna call it right now that he shares a similar transformation with Roadbuster.

    In any case, I want this!

    Although the ride seems fun, I've had a pretty much lifelong non-interest in amusement parks. Despite that, though, Evac looks really cool, and I hope this toy gets a wide release and not just an exclusive run at the Universal Studios parks.

    I'm not really too impressed with him but then again I'm not a fan of the movie designs. He's still a neat idea for an exclusive though, so he gets props for that.:thumbs2:

    hopefully when it gets released it is actually painted unlike lots of the recent Movie-verse figures, there are two problems I can currently see in the figure
    1st one is the back panel; it looks like the car on resting on his back like 'Roadbuster'
    2nd is the chest; it doesn't look like it is pegged in securely to the abdomen hopefully the chest doesn't raise every time you move the arms like 'Masterpiece Rodimus Prime/Hot Rod' and 'Prime Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime'

    It's nice to see that instead of progress on Deluxe Mirage and Voyager Devcon, we get figures of characters that weren't even in the bloody movie. :rolleyes:

    Wow, this looks really good! His vehicle mode is a bit weird, but cool. The robot mode is where the figure really shines in my opinion. He looks like one of my favorite characters; Raodbuster! (Yes, I know his robot mode was modeled after Roadbuster:wink: )

    for those wondering:

    Hasbro stated that evac, the legend and deluxe molds, were made for the ride, and will be sold at the park in a giftshop there, but, to recoup the cost of the mold, a redeco of both molds will be available at mass retail, so don't worry, the mold will be obtainable, just in a different color

    Should be. Last official word was that Deluxe Evac was going to be an Asia-exclusive toy.
