    It's no Armada Blurr, but it looks really good.

    Oh yeah, now I'm really hoping that Road Rocket has a least the chest retooled.

    He still has gigantic, incompetently designed forearm kibble. Instant pass.

    Looks much better than the SS86 version, though SG is still my favorite

    Ultimately, I don't plan to pick this up, but this is a much more interesting final product than just G1 toy colors as expected

    Wow, Hasbro really is making everything Transformers now. Looks good. Maybe an Animated Wasp is possible one day.

    Nice effort. Shame the arms couldn’t be fixed, but replacing that garish mug took care of 80% of what made SS86 Blurr 100% rubbish.

    I'm so upset. This looks leagues better than SS86 Blurr. I'm actually buying this mold again.

    Goddamn you Hasbro.

    I like him much better than 86 Blurr, but man is that arm kibble bad. Even worse than on the 86 version.

    All of which barely do anything to distinguish him from the original mold.

    As one of the few fans of the SS86 Blurr, I'm surprisingly torn on this. It looks great in both modes, I especially love that smirk, but I don't really collect much IDW stuff. I might get it just because FOMO if it is indeed the in Velocitron line. If it's mainline, it's probably a pass.

    He looks pretty awesome. Clever of Hasbro to go back to IDW occassionally b/c they sold so many waves of those starting back at thrilling 30...some people would like a complete IDW shelf.

    It’s my favorite Blurr design in plastic!! If the big ass wheels actually worked it would be perfect
