Rumour: First Image of Titan Wars Blaster, Including Base Mode

That looks like so much fun. Baseformers/playsets are sorely lacking, been on a drought since that nice run with Dark of the Moon Cyberverse and Metroplex. Also, this is one step closer to my pipe dream of Ten's Lost Light playset being realized.

i'm guessing he's about the size of ultra magnus, conjecture based on the the hypothesis that the recently announced buzzsaw might somehow fit in blaster's chest.

which wold in turn, lead me to speculate regarding the possibility of a repurposing of the mould for a generations soundwave (who lets face it, is the biggest g1 character not to have a proper update)

Recently announced buzzsaw? Did I miss something?

I don't CW to end until Galvatronus gets his limbs and the Technobots see justice and when will we see the Predacons?

I feel like Soundwave is going to be coming out 2016 then Blaster 2017. If they can hold the cassettes or onyx tablets or whatever they are now they'd have to be leader class, there's just no way to get a legends class figure to fit inside a voyager or deluxe.

There on side of his legs in bot mode not front but outside side look closley

I would agree that the speakers fold and tuck to form his legs, especially after checking out the line art.

It does appear that a square thing is designed to plug into his chest.

Probably leader sized, but I'd rather voyager class.

While the Technobots is obscure, Hasbro confirmed that they are not working on any beast combiners. But that makes sense since Predaking isn' scramble city and is more likely to be a titan class figure down the line. Hasbro did comfirm that they are making 1 titan class figure per year from here on out and that it probably when they will release Pradaking. He isn't part of Combiner Wars.

Also, Galvatronus will never have his own limbs, that was made pretty clear with what the toy is meant to be, even to the point of giving him a fiction that he can mind control other parts to become his limbs.

I know they are not identical, but Blaster's base mode gives me a real Powermaster Optimus Prime vibe:



Anyway, cool looking toy. I may have to think about retiring the repurposed FOC Blaster I currently use in my collection. I just hope that he gets a corresponding Stealjaw, Ramhorn, Rewind, and Eject to go with him.
