    So we've gotten a few Blaster's over the years, was wondering which you consider to be your "Classics" Blaster?

    Alternators
    Universe 2008 Blaster
    DL Blaster
    FOC/Generations Blaster

    I presently use DL, but he seems a bit... off. and with Gen Blaster possible available soon, been thinking about it. Especially since I kinda like the look of Steeljaw.

    Device Label for the moment. Considering the number of DJs out there that use laptops for portable setups, it almost makes sense.

    device label - it's somewhat in scale and can hold cassettes, and the best alternative out there.

    Having said that though, I'd welcome a new version that doesn't come with all that kibble and that more closely resembled G1 cartoon Blaster.

    Device Label, though the FOC one is a close second.


    Edit: FOC Blaster is more of a "Space Ice Cream Truck" not a "Space Winnebago." Yeeesh...

    When they make an actual Classics Blaster, then I'll vote. As it stands, I don't placehold, and FOC Blaster will be FOC Blaster in my collection, ironically enough.

    Device label for looks. Foc for play.

    None of the above. Device Label comes close, but the kibble & price don't make a lot of sense to use as a stand-in. So for me, no Blaster at all until/if they make a proper Classic-verse version.

    I agree with this, though I don't think FOC Blaster looks bad.

    FOC. DL doesn't look bad but is a bit too small, and the reissue belongs with G1, even though I love it.
