    15 minutes of actually reading the thread would have saved you from that MASSIVELY uninformed comment.

    With that red canopy, that could be an even better Rotorstorm stand-in than the SS version.

    This seems to be a more accurate representation of Dropkick from the film rather than the Studio Series figure.

    Ya know, after seeing Bumblebee, this Dropkick looks better than the Studio series figure.

    If there isn't going to be a SS Blitzwing for a while this Nitro Igniters version of him would be a good stand in that is if he at least has good enough articulation.

    I don't know why they called him Blitzwing in the movie when he all he turned out to be is generic con #5.

    Keeping the name actively in use to protect their rights to keep using the name.

    I'd much rather a Studio Series version of Blitzwing and since I'm sure they'll eventually make one... I'll wait.

    definitely be purchasing blitzwing. I like dropkicks robot mode, but that alt-mode is just too much for me, too bulky. I hope they do his helicopter mode, but scaled down to mid-sized power series.

    Wow, those actually look half decent compared to the absolute trash the Energon Igniters have been so far. That is a much better Dropkick toy that the Studio Series. The only thing that looks bad without seeing it in person is the massive hole in the backs of the legs to accomodate the stupid gimmick. Definately no knee articulation though.

    What does the motor do in these? I assume it spins Dropkick\'s rotor. At least it looks like Blitzwing has a good compartment to hide the hole.

    There is no doubt in my mind a Studio Series Blitzwing will be released, but I think I\'ll pick this one up. It can\'t be too expensive and it doesn\'t look too bad.

    These toys look nice to look at, but it\'s the gimmicks and lack of any articulation that\'s turning off the collectors.
