Generations Blurr review with pics

Shin Densetsu · 12-22-2010, 10:38 AM

I finally found Blurr last week, and like it much better than Drift, it's a great retooling. The blue that it is molded in is great, and I love the new weapons and parts. This is how retooling should be done.

I have yet to see this bot at retail.

my store was sitting on these for like a week. Then someone finally bought them. I would've gladly bought some for some TFW'ers had I known!

hasbrotoyshop.com had him in stock when I ordered 3 days ago. I recommend buying from there, which is what I did. I gave up looking for him in stores.

Found him today. I wasn't sure about it the first 2 times I saw it. I didn't think I would get another chance. Lucky me.

Lucky me as well, I found him today, and it was the only one on the pegs too. (This particular Target's selection is rather meager lately.) The colors are really impressive in person.

Same here... I must have passed Blurr up at least 3 times almost 2 months ago (did get Dirge though) and have recently regretted it knowing that we will soon see Wreck-Gar, Kup, Perceptor and a re-release of Hot Rod (whom I also passed up 4 years ago).

But, the morning after Christmas the wife and I were at Target and she took pity on me and let me buy him once I told her it was the first I'd seen him in months and may well be the last time too! Thanks baby!

Oh, and he's way more awesome than I even thought he'd be. I love his colors and his head sculpt!

I finally found him a wally world today, the only one they had. Mine is perfect....no paint issues, nice and tight. Great figure. I just wish he didn't have soo much forehead! I have to admit i'm hesitant to transform him.....unlike my Drift, Blurr's front end area around the grill and fenders fits together perfectly. If I transform him they might not go back together as well.

This is a nice toy but im not keen on him having the same body as Drift as I dont think the body suits Blurr. That and I dont like repaints/tools very much.
