It's as if by talking he tries to drown out his own fears and memories somehow. At the beginning of the war, Bluestreak's home city was totally destroyed by Decepticons. His friends realize, however, that his jabbering hides a deeper pain. Or they imagine that he's a fool who doesn't know when to shut up, that he drones on and on and on and on because maybe he just likes to hear himself speak or something. Some think he's vapid, that his mouth just moves a billion times faster than his brain, if his brain is moving at all. Words are coming out of his mouth in a near constant prattling stream. Could be about things on Earth, could be about things on Cybertron, could be about just about anything, but the point is, y'know, he's talking. Any subject, any time of the day, his lips are flapping while his Autobot comrades are rolling their eyes. PONDEROUS, f***in' PONDEROUS.īluestreak (aka Silverstreak ) is a talker. If I have the time, and can make myself care I'll try to setup the lightbox to take pictures that can really show the color differences I spoke about in the review.I'm f***ing PONDEROUS, man. Also if there was already a review of this release of Blaster I apologize I didn't find it when I searched for "SDCC Blaster". This is my first review of anything on TFW let me know if you like it or not. BUT, if you are looking to replace a vintage Blaster this may not be the choice for you. It's a decent value if you don't already have it. If you don't have a G1 Blaster or any of the Autobot cassettes get it. Which is really a shame because I am a big fan of tampo'd Transformers! To my surprise while Steeljaw, and Ramhorn are tampo printed, Eject is not. I did pop eject out because he was mis-transformed. Due to the disappointment of Blaster I didn't care to really look at the cassettes. He comes with his gun, Ramhorn, Eject, Steeljaw, their weapons and cassette cases. This Figure is no where near the quality of the TRU Preceptor, or Insecticons that, with the exception of the stickers, are perfect re-issues. The off colors and overall cheap feel of the plastic leave me feeling pretty disappointed. However now that I have it, and have seen it in person, I may not bother. I got this to be a replacement for my Vintage Blaster I have on display. That being said it has all the problems of any original Blaster, stiff buttons, tape door, and handle. If you haven't seen a G1 Blaster by now, I'm sure there a million reviews out there. I wont bother getting into the figure itself. The Yellow is more vibrant, but works with the red they used. It's missing that hint of orange that the original Had. The Red while not the same pink as the Universe G1 Prime is still not Blaster red. It has a weird opaqueness to it, along with metallic flakes. The gray on his legs is the same gray used on the Universe G1 Primes trailer. As soon as you see Blaster, if you have an original G1 Blaster, something in your head goes "that's not right"! Yeah, so you remember that off color G1 Prime release from Hasbro last Holiday season? It looks like Hasbro had a bunch of left over plastic from it, and decided to use it to make Blaster. The adjacent window reveals Blaster and friends all in there robot modes.īlaster comes packaged in robot mode with the stickers (poorly) pre-applied. Oddly enough the Figures used in these pictures are either originals or a TFC reissue because they are the original color (yeah I'll get to that in just a minute). The box art depicts a very happy, almost jolly, gun wielding, Blaster! The inside of the cover sports pictures of the figure. Removing the sleeve reveals a very large book style Transformers Universe Commemorative Edition G1 series box. It dosent look like any Transformer packaging I can remember, but it screams 80's! The sleeve has a red foil reflective pattern, and gold print. The box comes in an outer sleeve that slides over the box. Surprisingly the boxes were in fair shape with minimal shelf wear. SDCC Transformers Universe Commemorative Edition G1 Series Autobot Blaster (Yeah that's all on the box! Well not SDCC.)
