Thanks for the pic. Think this is epic good news. Can't wait to buy it and play with it.

Heavily speculating that DX9 Blitzwing's toy will be in scale with DX9 Astrotrain. As they are a pair that have always been portrayed the same scale in the G1 Cartoon and G1 toy line.

Can't say I'm shocked, but I wonder what this figure will do that the official Generations version doesn't. I guess the good news is that this along with Chigurh and Unique Toys' Provider will make a nice beefy set of triple changers.

This will be the first MP style Blitzwing So i would say it's gonna blow all 3 mode of Generations Blitzwing away and will be around the same height as DX9 Astrotrain , so it's gonna do whole lot more .

If anything, this should actually help the sales of their Astrotrains. Lots of people were complaining about these 3P Astrotrains not having a Blitzy to scale with.

What's with the numbers on the front of the tank? Are we going to get more June 9th ? Or is it some other significance?

Either way I would totally dig a Blitzwing to go with Chigurh

I thought those were homages to his homemade army from Triple Take over.

Nice catch i would never have clicked on to that .

Thought that HasTak Blitzwing toy looked terrible in all Three modes. Think it's going to be rather easy for a 3rd party to create a CHUG or MP Blitzwing toy that is better.

I'm pretty much done with Generations Blitzwing . I enjoyed the figure when i was collecting classics and he's one of the couple i have left but tbh i never even transformed him the alt modes looked so weak .

I can't wait to see what DX9 does with him , Also i want a giant poster of that teaser

Me too on the poster!

This pic should solve the numbers on the tank mystery.

Good catch! Forgot about Blitzwing's keeping score on the zone defense.

I still hope the date thing is interlaced in there...

I have no need for this figure, as the Hasbro one suits me fine. As is the style of the time, I will periodically return here to tell you all of this all over again and make snide remarks towards those of you who are interested in this figure.

well where would the world be without folks that like to stir the pot? Of course you should wait until there are actual prototype picSs to use in your arsenal of admonishment against us.

but they've not even made prototypes! what a bunch of layabouts and con artists! until there are prototype pics I am compelled to repeat this sad act with only the teaser to complain about!

Wonder what the, AB, inside the tant turret is in reference to?

Noticed the pic says, DX9 2015. So at least we know it will released sometime in 2015.

AB= Alternate Blitzwing?

AirBlitzer or AeroBarrage or...AeroBlitzer?

I think it's for the first letters of both of these characters names: Astrotrain and Blitzwing. But maybe it's for the product name of this figure?

Might be a mini comic that comes included with the DX9 Chigurh toy.


Might give buyers a hint at what DX9 Blitzwing's toy might look like.

Interesting. Though it would have been best if the teaser was a prototype. Oh well, at least we know it's coming.

I would also like to see how the figure would look when be retooled into Doubledealer. (I know, I'm weird like that).

Let's hope it stands for Absolutely Bananas. As in, this not-Blitzwing is absolutely bananas (whenever we see the proto )
