Legout
From Transformers Wiki
- Legout is an Autobot Mini-Cassette combiner from the Headmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Legout (レッグアウト Regguauto) is the combination of the W Cassettebots Dile and Zaur, and contains a supercomputer that records information for the Autobots. Unlike his older brother, Decibel, Legout is carefree and easily enthused. His shoulder-mounted Wave Blasters can overload Decepticon audio receptors and deafen them, which makes them not so enthused.

- Predating the 2019 Mini-Cassette reissues in the Vintage G1 toyline, Hasbro recreated the W Cassettebot molds that form Legout and sold them separately in the Studio Series toyline inside two multipacks advertising the Bumblebee film. While these were marketed as a part of the live-action film series, they are quite clearly intended to be reissues of the original toys and were presumably packed into these sets as the future of the Vintage G1 line at the time was uncertain.
- Following these releases, recreations of the molds of the other W Cassettebot team that forms Decibel were released in the Vintage G1 toyline.
Notes
- Legout plays guitar as part of a band that includes Slamdance and Decibel on the retailer incentive cover to Spotlight: Blaster.
