    Interesting take on the character, it does fit his personality though. Guy was a little unhinged about parking violations

    NO PARKING MEANS NO PARKING

    Since Towline/Wrecker Hook went off his rocker and became a Decepticon in Robot Masters - I'll head canon this as him readopting his Autobot color scheme after realizing the error of his ways or some shit.

    I don't know a thing about this character yet (I'll do some research later). But is it wrong to feel like this should be a Decepticon as soon as you look at it?

    I mean the face alone just doesn't come off as "Benevolent" in any way...

    Now I don't hate it, I just wish he was a Con I guess.

    That's awesome. Love to see some RID representation. Probably one of the most under-appreciated TF shows

    Yeah that looks awful. I'm still getting it, especially since I don't think we'll get a better one.

    I like the look of him a lot more than I expected to, and I'm all about the new junkions.

    I expect as long as I don't hate Scraphook when I have him in had I'll be picking up towline as well.

    With this acknowledgement of RID '01 by the Legacy team, I wonder if RID '01 will be made available on any streaming services soon.

    I think this is a creative use of the mold.

    The glorious return of 2010's era retools? Wonderful. Though it seems they painted his head a little weird. There should be some "green" area between the circles and the "center" of the helmet. Still want it tho

    He looks hideous and I love it. Not a perfect take on Tow-Line, but I'm digging the colors on that mold. Definitely could be a figure to pick up.

    Whilst I think it looks neat, I fully understand if any Car Robots/RID2001 fans are baffled/annoyed

    This pretty much seals that Legacy Toxitron is going to be a Laser Optimus Prime Redeco. (Or maybe holiday Optimus Prime)

    Those are some BUILD TEAM 2001 ass levels of saturation in that shade of green they chose. I don't mean the color, I mean the specific level of brightness and sheen present in the shade.

    Come on, manifest me a Titan Build Team for Legacy 3!

    It takes some serious Lugnuts to relase a toy with that glorious, eye searing, color scheme. Hats off for the design team on this one.

    I don't know, they seem to not like including Scooby-Doo in things as of late.
