Part of the second wave of Transformers: Legacy Deluxe Class toys, "Decepticon Wild Rider” (he got his name back!) transforms into a close approximation of a Ferrari 308 GTB sports car mode in 17 steps. His accessories include two blasters, which can mount to his race car mode (reminiscent of the attack vehicle mode of his G1 toy). The blasters are also molded after his G1 "Scattershot Gun” and also named "Dual Energon Scattershot Blasters” in his bio, which is accessible by scanning the QR code on the back of his packaging.
The last step of Wild Rider’s instructions depicts tabs and slots to secure his inner legs that do not actually exist on the toy itself. Also, the panels forming the car rear cannot open as wide as the instructions show, and forcing the hinges can result in stress marks or breakage. In addition, it is practically impossible to peg the feet into the car undercarriage as the instructions suggest, as the plastic tolerances will inevitably cause the very short pegs to slip out of the holes they are supposed to connect to. However, the ankle hinges have enough friction to ensure the feet do not drag on the ground when the vehicle mode is rolled on a flat surface. The back of his head has a port for light-piping, though his eyes are painted over in silver, neutering the effect.
This figure is not compatible with any prior systems of combination. As Legacy Menasor is designed with a specific limb configuration in mind, Wild Rider is limited to being one of Menasor’s legs, but unlike Drag Strip and Dead End as the arms, he can be used for either the left or right leg.
This figure was revealed by CBR a day prior to the April 12, 2022 Fan First Tuesday.
Wild Rider was retooled into his Stunticon teammate Breakdown.
