    His name is Astrotrain. Pretty sure outside of forums like this, no one calls him Chigurh or choochoo or Thomas, or anything else.

    Chigurh was a big bad dude and is the sound of a train. Makes sense to me both ways for astrotrain

    I'm pretty sure that outside of forums like this, people don't talk about him at all.

    This thread needs to go away until we have some pics of Blitzwing.

    If the image of blitzwing in this comic show is how the DX0 toy of Blitzwing will look, I dont know if I will be into it... as is it just me, or does blitzing look thin..... almost feminine for a bot build/body kinda thin??

    To me, if he looks at all like those illustrations, I'll be pretty happy about it.
    Blitzwing is a huge want and if the end product has a torso that's way too slender, I'll pass, but I'll have to see the darn thing first.
    I see what you're saying, but I don't see it as a deal-breaker.

    Not much different to MP11 then. Check out the MP Blitzwing customs and this looks like it could be very similar, just alot more refined.....which is no bad thing at all.

    hmm yeah that comic makes me want to see their render. i did chigurh's bot mode but not enough to overlook the shortbus shuttle :-( even though evilastar is more toy oriented i perfer him by far. and to be honest, going by scale chart astrotrain was never as huge as megatron, he was about seeker height or maybe soudnwave height at best so depending on if you believe scale chart or not either of these are in scale. anyawy... let's hope their blitzwing hits the mark in all 3 modes and not just 2.

    He was as tall as Astrotrain & Astrotrain looked at or slightly above Megs. In jet bomber mode he was slighty larger than the seekers. Chigurh is slightly under Apollyon.

    So I am hoping Blitzwing is Chigurh height bc that is his perfect height. Chigurh works as MP but if another comes along & makes him bigger (10") that would be his perfect imo. But having Chigurh right now makes me happy enough.

    Their not-Blitzwing is also seen in the comic for DX9's not-Astrotrain. Seems to imply he is quite a bit shorter than not-Astrotrain.

    In some panels Astrotrain looks thinner then the actual figure does. Though I admit DX9's Mirage seems to thin to me so hard to tell.

    Let us not cripple ourselves with worthless political correctness where no-one is offended, but we'll do it anyway "just in case someone is".

    Thread bump by the way!!

    Jet mode will make or break this for me. Please do jet mode justice. I wonder which jet though? G1 is a MIG-25 or MIG-31. IDW is a PAK FA. Hmm...
