...well I certainly wasn't expecting 2 Jazz's, that came out of left field. No one seems to know where this picture came from, but considering it includes the packaging and seemingly-legit stock photos of the figures that have already had in-hand pics I guess it's legit? Unfortunate for anyone banking on that Shadowstrip repack though.

(as per usual
) So are they just going to release a G2 Wildrider in the main Legacy Evolution line? I keep seeing it on lists of upcoming toys.
So back when this year's whole retail line-up became known from store listings, there was a listing for a Deluxe "ROBO WLD RDR". We don't know if that's G2 Wildrider using a new name like Shadowstrip, or if that's RiD X-Brawn and they're using his Car Robots name Wildride in the store listing to not get retailers confused by releasing a character named Brawn and a character named X-Brawn within months of each other. I personally think it's that second one, since Velocitron Scourge was labeled in listings as Black Convoy rather than Scourge, and considering we now know Shadow Striker is a Side-Burn pretool, putting out an X-Brawn to go with them would make sense. However, we also currently don't know how or if that listing is actually going to be released, since we've got all four waves accounted for already for the year (unless my personal theory that there's a Wave 5 turns out to be true), so right now it's probably easiest to just operate under the assumption that the only G2 Stunticons happening for certain are the already-released Shadowstrip and the currently-leaked Dead End, and then be pleasantly surprised if Wildrider also turns up.
The only reason Wildrider was ever mentioned in regards to the Toxitron capsule specifically was because someone got their hands on Dead End but mixed up which Stunticon is which, and thusly confused everyone by saying they had Toxitron capsule "Wildrider" in-hand.
