    I appreciate the reveiw. I'm not overly crazy about his design though, and probably won't be getting him. However, I do find him to look like a more solid toy then the voyager movie version.

    Now that you mention it, I checked a video review of Lugnut and you are right, they have the same transformation. Blackout is pretty much just a remold.

    I think this shoulda been an ultra.
    /end argument.

    That was a fabulous review and the pics were just fine.

    i am sooo glad that they did something fresh with the "ROTOR WEAPON" idea.
    instead of a spinning shield or 5000 RPM Ginsu knives of death, it looks like a saw blade weapon.

    He will make a great, awesome addition to my aviationformers shelf.

    I think this toy looks even WORSE! The transformation is to easy and it looks primary.

    Can we see him compared to some other figures like HA Bumblebee or Movie Blackout/Grindor?

    Top Notch Man! Front Pged and everything. Blackout looks like a great blend of Movie Blackout with what we saw of him in Transwarp. Great pics too.
