Transformers Legacy Leader Blitzwing First Look & In-Hand Images

[Darkroar]

Those red things remind me of Energon combiner hands, although they are different.

I think this is a pass for me. My current TR Blitzwing and Generations versions are good enough for me. I'm not buying too many Transformers these days, but Blitzwing is a character that I would consider if he was really good or if he was the Animated version.

KFC Blitzwing, which is very faithful to the G1 in all 3 modes, the only probably the heavy backpack.

The 3p version (both KFC and DX9) are much better than this one, of course they are MP scale.

Also MFT, the legend + scale Blitzwing is much better than this too, in all 3 modes, and it's only Voyage price.

I think this comes with animated Transformers blitzwing face too.

He looks fantastic in robot mode, jet mode is good, that tank mode though, instead of giving us those wretched over sized hand gimmick, they should have spent that money on engineering the collapse of cockpit in tank mode

He will definitely be shorter than the titans return version. Same with the titans return astrotrain and siege one, unless u give him the moon boots then they are same size.

He will definitely feel heavier than the titans return blitzwing

Fan of the DX9 Gewalt. That looks solid. Looking for one actually! Lol

But...

He looks really fucking good in robot mode. Titans Return was fine, but that mold had a pile of challenges staying together. His head was a gloopy mess. Hell, I liked the mold better as Megatron given it's flaws.

I suspect PvP didn't transform tank mode correctly and the jet cockpit stows better.

The bulky jet mode doesn't bother me.

Will I want to pay 80+ for this guy? No. But boy, if I can get a 60 dollar sale or something...

I thought the same thing when I watched the pvp review. He might have miffed the tank mode transformation.

Honestly I loved the look of it u til the jet mode and I was a bit cringe.

I have astrotrain and my son has the TR blitzy.

I heel like he will be more posable on shelf than TR.

I will wait for the eventual MP version.

Yeah, the TR one tends to unclip or lose its balance fairly easily.

I think it's a great looking robot mode, I'm sure PvP fucked up the transformation (i'm sure he got instructions with his totally-legal-acquistion), it's just... goddammit 85 dollars.
