In Hand Images of Fall of Cybertron Blaster

Love it.

I really want a classics Blaster but I'm just soooo torn on this mold. :/

On a relaxing day, it looks like Blaster uses Steeljaw as his coffee table.

... dammit.

I was going to get Soundblaster but this... looks good. And comes with Steeljaw.

And a damn gun. Seriously, what's with not giving Soundwave a gun? I'd understand cutting it for budget reasons and rationalizing it by (well... he has a shoulder gun) but WHY FEATURE IT IN THE PROMO PICS.

Dick move, Hasbro.

I think I like Blaster more than I like Soundwave.

Curious how he looks next to the WFC Soundwave mold, that said. Blaster WAS always bigger after all...

Also this.

I really like this! His Cybertron car mode is pretty pimped out, but I dig it!

I'm really looking forward to this. Blaster has always been a favorite character of mine, and this toy, despite being a remold, makes for a pretty awesome Cybertronian Blaster (way better than the Universe repaint of Cybertron Soundwave).

I think that's a pretty natural reaction!

Nice that us non-double-dippers are getting fun remold choices (Ultra Magnus, Blaster, Sideswipe if you're all Jazzed out, Wreckers if you already have Energon Bruticus...)

Oh, very much so. The remolds have all been great on this toyline. Some of the best we've seen, to be honest - I'm still amazed they completely reshelled Jazz.

This is actually a nice remold! Remold is it? Oh well, its a great toy! ^^'

Mostly buying this for Steeljaw and the weapon.

This will be my Classics Blaster.

Bleh. Just don't think this chunky clunky design looks good.

A tad disappointed his visor doesn't flip down, as that would've been awesome to 'swap heads' between comic and cartoon, but I love Blaster and will get this.

I know it's G1-accurate, but those dishwater-grey legs are pretty bland and ugly. Would have been nice to see the thighs broken up from the lower legs, color-wise.

The upper body looks good, though; going the extra mile to remold the chest as well as just the head was a good call, it seals the figure as unquestionably Blaster (even though Blaster is a character that I've never cared much about, personally). I'll still pick him up, of course.

gotta love how they never EVER show a side view or the back lol.

all because of that huge off-putting lever for the chest gimmick

Same here.

See! this is what the repaint a few years back shoulda been, new head, new chest. new character! Totally bought!

About time Blaster got some love.

wished they made a deluxe sized oned

Will be used as a Classics Blaster as well and placed upon my dedicated Lost Light shelf along with Rewind when he's released.

Not too shabby.

I wonder which diskbot will be with the Twincast version?

Now I'm second guessing my original decision to pass on this figure due to the horrid data disk.

I want this guy so badly! Can't wait!!

I sort of want this guy. The cassette is really good, too.

Must say I'm looking forward to this^^
I've got the voyager soundwave on standby and I'm planning to get Blaster too. I like the size of them in robot mode and that you can get a 'boombox mode' out of this larger toy much as you could the original deluxe. Always a plus
I will admit that I'm leaning towards NOT using the 'datadisk formers' though... Steeljaw's cat form looks very awkward to me :S

...
Also, LOVE the gun ^^

Is this Hasbro or Takara?

Hasbro

Sweet I didn't think they were going to release him. Gonna cancel my Takara preorder.

After seeing this pic,am looking forward to Twincast if they are going to do one

I may not double dip on this mold and just get Blaster!

IDK, if it's the size or the gimmick or what, but as much as I want a classics Blaster I'm just not feeling this guy.

Really thinking I'm going to pass on him and grab Kickback instead. (Which is insane considering I'm not into beastformers, but he just looks so much better IMHO.)

Actually looking forward to this. I'm not a fan of the mold as a "Classics" Soundwave (Music Label is perfect for this, IMO), but on Blaster, it just seems to work better for the character.

What about that universe blaster with wings?

You guys think we should get this for 50 bucks or wait it out?

That's what's up!

He's not planned for a us release though right?

He is. Wave 2.

Oh with grimlock? For some reason I thought someone said he's Japan only around here

I think he is? Ypu can order him On toyarena right now

yeah, pretty much this as well. :

I'm passing on Soundwave and Soundblaster to get this figure and once I do get it, I'll put it with my Classics figures.

Think hes worth 55 bucks to get?:0 or wait till hes retail for 23 but i feel like well never see him retail

Wait til an online retailer has him for the $23, never pay double for a figure unless you know for sure you will not have any other means to get him.

Blaster looks good but I prefer WFC deluxe Soundwave. If I get Blaster its gonna be like G1 toys all over again with Blaster being taller than Soundwave. Wish they just make a WFC or FOC deluxe Blaster.

I am liking this color scheme but I have a strict one figure per mold limit. So would you guys suggest I return the SoundBlaster figure and just get this one when it comes out?

That's Skywarp (so far).
