Studio Series Crowbar is an extensive retool of The Last Knight Berserker, sharing most of Berserker's vehicle mode kibble but few robot mode parts, changing (finally) into a Chevrolet Suburban and back in 20 steps. He includes a pair of spiked weapons which he can hold via 5mm post and store on his back or the side of his car mode. Meanwhile, his flowing strands of chain hair are made of a rubbery plastic, which allows them to fit inside the vehicle mode. He also includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting the Dread chase scene from Dark of the Moon. The retooling means that he unfortunately cannot store his bludgeons under his chassis.

Amusingly, due to The Last Knight Deluxe Class wave 1 shelfwarming so hilariously badly in the United States, Crowbar could be found alongside Berserker in many stores.

Curiously, despite being a movie Decepticon, the figure uses the G1 style of insignia. Even stranger, Berserker uses the movie design while Crankcase outright lacks an insignia altogether.

Crowbar, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at Hasbro Toy Shop following New York Toy Fair 2018, two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release date.

This mold was redecoed into Studio Series Crankcase.
