Mis-transformed or not that is by far the ugliest Transformer I've ever seen. The jet mode looks good and I'm floored the sword has a sheath but, it's just ugly.
Shuttershock wrote:Maybe it's just the excellent art and personality of Sarah Stone's drawing style, but it seems like no medium other than the Windblade comic matches up her design with her personality. Every other one, the toy included, gives her a generic, aloof, detached look that doesn't help her character stand out as an earnest if naive civil servant.

To all the people who said ugly Robotmode, I can see that the shoulders of Windblade are not in the right transforming position. I think when it's done the right way it will be look much better. Have nice day.
For this post I had to make an account

I just can't wait to see all the repaints and remolds this figure will get, you have to know those are coming since this was a completely new mold and tooling.

The hate has died down significantly ever since her comic series began, which has been critically-acclaimed among the fandom.

I'm telling you guys, Hasbro would be complete and total morons if they don't squeeze a Slipstream out of Windblade. It wouldn't be perfect fit, but it would be a hugely missed opportunity if it doesn't happen.

I foresee Slipstream for sure. Perhaps a TFSS or Convention Exclusive Airrazor?

Aside from the color scheme, it's a fairly accurate representation of the IDW iteration of the character in robot mode, as the wings are on ball joints and can be folded down and back out of the way, and the whole figure can be posed in a "hunched over" position.paul053 wrote:Is there any good reason to pick up Armada Starscream remolded Jhiaxus besides it is being named Jhiaxus?

You not buying that one figure could be the loss that causes Hasbro to not make their projected quarterly goals and thus Arcee, Chromia, Windblade, and Cosmos (any future versions) will be canceled never to be made; or not.

Cosmos is already out. Windblade is in the same wave. Okay, I got what you mean. I buy one Jhiaxus and that will save Hasbro's business.
