Will his head look up in this pose or will he be looking at his feet while his cannons fire aimlessly The reason is that, when I get him,I want to pose him like how he is this clip (5:06 mark)

From the way his wing move along with his arm, it looks like his G1 namesake's sword

 

That video review gave us a great look at the figure. Blitzwing looks even better on video. Awesome figure.

I will pick one up the second he is available for $19.99 (at WALMART, plus tax  )

 

Yep I like them anyway. They are in the cartoon and the concept drawings but yet again some ******s dont shut up about anything I love the tanks mode as well looks very accurate to the show. THE ROBOT MODE IS GOD!

 

THe robot mode is nothing but win!!!

 

Yea Exactly! Very Accurate to the Cartoon and compared to G1 Blitzwing this guy has Amazing Articulation plus both his alt modes look amazing while hiding the other mode as best as they can. It's hard enough to make a accurate Transformers and then on top of it add a 3rd Mode? Either you are gonna see parts of the other mode(Classics Astrotrain) or it will be a Triple Changer with Alt Modes that look pretty much the same(G1 Springer)

I give the designers AMAZING Props. To make toys that aren't super complex and expensive and can transform this good while being articulated I am AMAZED!

 

There are a few available on eBay from one seller for $150 total:

The guy's a good seller (I've bought from him before) and I'm putting this out there so that people who want Blitzwing for a lower price can get one, but mostly so that people will buy all of them before I lose control and drop $150 for one!

 

I still want to know if this comes with blue "ice missles" as well. Someone here mentioned that they're expecting to receive 2 sets of missles when they ordered BW off eBay, but I haven't actually seen any pics beyond the red "fire missles".

 

Sean- awesome review, but I do have 2 minor things to point out that you could do to improve the overall quality for next time.
1. Seeing BWing and Lugnut together was awesome, but most people at the time of the review don't have Lugnut for a comparison they can relate to. Throwing in the G1 BWing and Movie Starscream was a good idea, though.
2. I found it a little difficult to hear at various points throughout the review. Mostly when you picked up the figure or reached off camera for another one. Not sure how you could fix that, just throwing that out there.

Regarding BWing- That's a must-have. No question. Waiting for the price to drop into my range will be -very- difficult.

razorchrist- I haven't heard anything about "ice missiles" but that would be pretty cool if it were true.

 

THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK

1. Yea I wanted to compare him to some Animated Figures and Figures People have too.

2. I will make sure my volume is up at all times.

If if has Ice Missles that's cool but it's no big deal for mine didn't come with them

 

Amazing fig and excellent review. I always love your reviews because you always showcase the figure in a way I like. I like how you always pick up more figs for comparison.

 

 

Sean great review man, just wondering could you take a pic of your all your animated toys together please, as id love to have that pic as my wallpaper.

 

SURE THING! I will take a great shot for sure!

 

Thank you

 

Well in their defense.
The treads are MUCH smaller on the jet mode in cartoon.
To the point where they're hard to see.

Although I now wish the cartoon jet had the same sized treads as the toy.

 

That was me. I'm waiting for mine to get here to confirm. If there ARE different missles, I will post pics.

 

another good review sean. i too don't like the tank wheels on is jet mode but oh well. if u could flip them up on their sides that woulda been better but i love how big his jet mode is compared to how compact the tank mode is. very cool. i just don't understand the size isues with these figs. it's like hasbro hasn't even watched the cartoon. lugnut and bulkhead are two of the biggest characters but they are the shortest toys? yes,i know we're getting a leader bulkhead and hopefully a leader lugnut but come on hasbro!

 

Holy shit how did you get this guy!

 

looks awesome but stubborn.

 

So can he do the pose mentioned in my last post, Sean?

 

Yea it can work that way
