So Amazon has a listing for a Deluxe Crankcase in the Legacy line. Possibly a Skids repaint? Hope not.

Not much information

Skids has kinda-sorta the right vehicle mode for Crankcase, but taking a blue character and doing a redeco of another blue character? Seems kind of samey to me. And the robot design wouldn't be at all right for Crankcase. If they want to reuse Skids, I'd rather see them turn him into Reboost or Crosscut or somebody.

Here's hoping it's a new toy design instead. I've been wanting to see them update the Triggercons and Triggerbots for a while now.

You might be right. Here's the description from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Legacy-Deluxe-Crankcase/dp/B09H1GXKKY

"Transformers Toys Generations Legacy Deluxe Crankcase Action Figure - Ages 8 and Up, 14 cm

TRANSFORMERS G1-INSPIRED DESIGN: This Transformers: Legacy 5.5-inch Crankcase robot toy is inspired by the animated series, The Transformers, updated with a Generations-style design
UNIVERSES COLLIDE: Universes collide with Transformers: Legacy! This epic line of Transformers toys brings together fan-favorite characters from across the Transformers multiverse
2 EPIC MODES: Crankcase action figure converts from robot to off-road vehicle mode in 14 steps. Remove the front grill of vehicle mode to reveal a large blaster accessory

SCAN THE CODE: Scan the code on each package to reveal character tech specs from across the multiverse! Collect other Legacy figures to reveal their character tech specs (each sold separately, subject to availability)"

Does the front grill of Skids come off to reveal a blaster? I think this may be new.
