Blackout eats little kitties?

Sure looks like he has the face of one molded into his forehead.

Anyhoo ... rounded packaging. Didn't like it in Armada, not going to like it now. But then again, who needs the packaging except weird hardcore collectors. :P

Does it HAVE to be on an angle? why can't I look at the toy unless I were to pick it up and put into weird angles just to see most of it? Oh that's right Hasbros secret marketing tactics to make me pick up the box. Damn those smart and smug so and sos... :P

Burn, why don't you keep the packaging? Or just cut out the pics you want or something?

Cool alt, Ugly face(Naturaly) and awful box, you can't flaten it.

Blackout is clearly a fan of Beast Wars Second, to the point where he had Moon's face carved into his headdress. Not that there's anything at all wrong with that :)

I look at it from a storage/display perspective.

I don't have much room so a lot of my TF's get stored. Now if I store them in boxes those things aren't going to pack very well.

However if I display them, they're also not going to display well.

So I will stick with what i've been doing for Cybertron. Provided there's a bio and stuff on the back i'll cut that off and keep it.

But otherwise, rounded packaging, I just don't like it. :?

It might just be the lighting, but he looks to be a nice respectable gray in this pic.

Nice touch witht he battery to give us a size perspective.

Yeah I feel all your angst about the pacikaging, its always been pretty crappy how American Toy manufacturers package their products. They could learn a thing or 2 from Japanese Manufacturers and their openable, collapsable boxes.. that you can break down and store, or place the product back in for transport...

I just hope the white "MIME" gloves are gone in this final version..What idiot at Hasbro decided that would be cool??


Its a shame really, if they are still white, then it just shows that they get so far, but keep missing the mark..

in the immortal words of William Shatner as Kirk: Still, "old friend." You've managed to kill everyone else but like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target.
Hasbro...on the Transformers Movie toys coloring and sculpts..


If only they would up their quality on that aspect..


Still its not all bad, i do like the overall look of Blackout, just not too fond of the white hands..of course it could have been worse, he could have the hands of Ratchet.. :shock:

Is that Shredder's or Sub-Zero's face on the front of the box?

Yeah, he does look like Shredder...

Still a cool toy, but those white hands just kill it for me.

Well, I was going to say so we don't have boxes 3 inches wide and a yard long, but yours is funny.

Not a fan of the arted face, but I love the fig.

Blackout's face actually works for me, and I like what I;ve seen of this toy so far. I want.

Blackout carries Scorponok in him, why? Cause Blackout was originally going to be Soundwave, making Scorpy act as a a tape-ish mini bot.

Barricade wasn't always Barricade and neither has Blackout always been Blackout.

Blackout was supposed to be Soundwave and I also heard they were going to call him Vortex.

I like this one, and I'd probably want to pick it up.

His face looks like a protoform Rampage, I like it.

Prime, Ratchet, Ironhide, and Blackout are definitely figures I will own in this line! Some of the others are OK, but those are by far the best I have seen and overall some of the best incarnartions of Transformers ever in my opinion. I only wish they had done better on Starscream and Megatron. I am hoping Deluxe Arcee is as good as Prime.
Re: Transformers Movie Blackout toy in package Image. (16797)

Is this the bigger size one not the legends of? I'm geting him, Prime and Barricade, don't care much for the packing, since I will open them up, cut out any pretty pic to keep.

I can't imagine how ugly Arcee will be.
