So my POV is quite biased. I also probably missed some other threads demanding this LC toy. (I actually hope so, because it would mean I'm not the only one).
LC Brawl seems to improve on the sound effects that Prime and Megatron were granted, Brawl having more.
Blackout would be sweet with helicopter fly-bye sound, machine guns blast noise, and "the only lead we have is this sound." (The sound, not Secretary Kellar's quote).
Anyway, I'm so much an Optimus Prime worshipping Autobot fan, but I know a cool Decepticon when I see one - and Blackout is him!
Hasbro can't even keep up with the demand for the figures they made - this should be every indication that they can even make a profit on creating more of them that they haven't done yet - like Leader Class Blackout! |

If we got Starscream instead of Blackout we would never get the chance to own both Starscream and Blackout.
If Hasbro released a Leader sized Starscream for TF2 and released Leader Blackout for TF1 we would get the chance to own both these molds instead of just one.  |

Were getting a repaint/retool of it into autobot evac next year with the allspark power set. Helicopter transformers are a rare treat so I support the repaint.
Most of us are pretty much tapped out once we get the 3 leaders available now at $40 each. Barring that many people would rather buy cheaper figures and see the demise of leader class altogether for more deluxes and voyagers. besides that have you seen incinerator? consider it a upgrade.

Still, it would be cool. But I have the complete cast already, and to have to buy another version of a character I already own? Nah-uh
Although, I do wish they did this to start off with. XBL GT: SPLITTLIP Quote:

Instead of a Voyager the size of a Deluxe, he'd just be a Leader the size of a Voyager. :S The kibble may be lame but I really don't think there's any way they could have done his transformation differently. -VELOXIRAPTOR-

And normally I'm not one to buy multiples of the same character in different size classes, but I'd so be all over both a Leader Blackout AND Voyager Bonecrusher. Those two need much better then what they got. I could only imagine the sheer size of Blackout's alt mode had he been a Leader class, it would have been glorious! |
