Freaky! Does Bludgeon take over one of Blitzwing's personalities? :lol:

Love it!

This all looks pretty awesome... wonder how it will stack up against the SXS set (which I already have on order...) :-?

Is that last photo meant to signify the Doc is providing a new nose cone?

I think it's just supposed to show that the new head fits better than the original and allows the nosecone to tab in better.

No new nose cone no sale for me.

Thinking about it, I would probably get this set if it came in blue for Doubledealer. I know it's probably not cannon, but that skeletal face would help differentiate DD from Blitzy.

Um... I think Doubledealer has a new head sculpt. Blitzwing's head on him would be silly...

It doesn't appear there's any shoulder fixes. So pass for me.

Ah. Gotcha. I didn't think about that.

oh look, the SXS Blitzwing upgrade kit just landed in my Pile of Loot.

Sorry Doctor, but not this time.

Those 2 random pieces appear to be shoulder fixes.

It's a shame, because I find the head and face sculpts to be more G1-ish than the SXS offering.

Presumably the face isn't actually purple, as shown in the art?

Do we have a price/release date? I might get this instead of the SXS set. As I've said in a previous post, I like that the head is somewhat blocky and more G1-ish looking. Also, the face options are a nice touch.

I had decided to sell my Blitzwing until I got the SXS upgrade kit the other day and I couldn't be happier with the shoulder fixes and the new head. So I guess Dr. Wu's kit is a bit late for me this time.

Oh and btw, it's the first time I bought reprolabels but both Blitz and Springer look SO much better with them

Reprolabels does good work. I have a couple of Scourge set for my Sweeps, and look forward to stickering up my Metroplex when I can put aside 3+ hours to do so...

On this Dr. Wu kit... the question remains: price/release date??
