Saw this on TFW. Looks interesting, hoping it's Voyager sized and Classics themed though rather than MP, it's not G1 enough for MP.

I hope it's voyager too. I could care less about MP scale. But hopefully they paint it G1. The grey deco blows.

The triple changers are a tough consideration for the MP line. They generally look to combine an accurate vehicle mode to a cartoon accurate (as much as can be expected, anyway) bot mode. MP Blitzwing could accomplish the bot mode with no problem. The tank mode could probably look decent (as this one does, though scale could be a real problem). But how in the world does one create a realistic looking plane from the Blitzwing G1 toy or animation model? It's supposed to be a Russian MiG, if memory serves. (TFWiki calls him a MiG 25.) I like how this group did it, but it's not a realistic looking plane mode. Therefore, it really wouldn't be an MP, right?

Still, I'd like to see how this one comes out.

I want to see the robot mode, first. I've already got the Generations Voyager, and despite his flaws, I'm satisfied with him.

It's pointless and overly repeative for this to be Voyager scale. HasTak has already geven fans Two beautiful,Well made Voyager scaler Blitzwing toys. The 2009 TFA & 2013 Blitzwing toys were both Voyager scaled toys. Creating a 3rd party Blitzwing toy in the same Voyager scale as Hataks is stupid and wasteful.

3rd parties need to create different things that Hastak hasn't done yet or refuses to do. This toy needs to be in the Eight inch or 9 inch MP TF scale not in the Generations deluxe or Voyager scale.

Having a Eight to Nine inch MP Blitzwing 3rd party toy. Means fans who buy and love those MP TF toys. Can Have a Blitzwing toy in scale with the MP Seekers, MP Soundwave, MP Grimlock with his moon boots, MP Rodimus Prime & MP-10.

are you Serious :???:

Those are the early renders colors. Ofcause they plan to give it the 1985 Blitzwing toy colors.

If this is MP scale then I am disappointed. It's just a more detailed version of the G1 toy. The transformation is identical. They couldn't try hiding the parts that stuck out on the G1 toy?

I love how Daimchoc put his watermark name on certain parts of this toy in all the different modes pics. Daimchoc probably did this so he gets credit for first showing these pics.

Someone who might not know who Daimchoc is. Might guess, Daimchoc, Is the 3rd party company that's creating this toy.

Where is Daimchoc, Wasn't he a active poster here. Notice he's actively posting on TFW. I enjoyed his 3rd party updated info and pics.

If this IS voyager sized, it looks pretty impressive, so I might replace a Hasbro Blitzwing with this.

If it is MP sized, I have to agree, it is not G1 enough for me, and would not make it to an MP shelf.

If I keep my Alt/BT shelf, which I am probably going to remove for space considerations, it could work there.

Love the Jet and tank design. Hoping the robot mode looks equally impressive.

He's just a enthusiastic fan like the rest of us. He just does most of the effort in breaking 3rd party news.
I can assure you he's a person and not a toy company lololol.
