Ever since I saw the first toy proto pics, I knew this guy would kill! I just wish Megatron and Starscream would look as cool as this one on this style (don't like the style they have).

Blackout is so beautiful! I just, I just want to take him and kill loads and loads of autobots!

It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.

*Stunned silence before bursting into applause.*

The more we see of this guy, the more he rocks.

Hey, AK... Are you sure the rear section is detachable? I see the pic you're refering to, but it kind of looks like perhaps the rear can be made to swing around so the blades can be used as a weapon. I suppose it would probably be easier to just make it detachable than to try to make it swing around, but to me it looks like the rear is still attached.

I must say, though, that if the rear IS detachable, then the figure is worth getting, IMO.

I like him fairly well. I wish his body was maybe a bit longer and he didn't have that huge helicopter tail hanging off his back. I don't mind the blades, it gives him some personality, but the tail looks to me like they just couldn't figure out what to do with it (or maybe they couldn't make him stand so they put it there).

i dont really like the blue, but this guy is awesome. i assume hes going to be an ultra

by **Shockwave06** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 8:10 pm

It does look like the back side (most of it) swings around and turns into a weapon which is cool. Looks like you can swing the back to either his left or right hands lol. nice.

I'm lovin movie ratchet blackout and prime so far. Can't wait to see a better 'bee.

by **TARDIS** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 8:14 pm

Even if the back isn't detachable, I like the new look and all its functionality.

Magnificent!! Absolutely Magnificent! The detailing on the face is fantastic! These faces remind me a little bit of Cybertron Menasor, but this guy looks totally, throroughly EVIL in a way I can't remember ever seeing in the TF line...I love it! It even looks like his transformation is similar to Armada Cyclonus. The way the back section swings over to become that massive rotator blade weapon is brilliant!

Like OMG get some control will ya and don't wet yourself :lol:

Very cool. I must have him!

by **Tom_Servo** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 8:28 pm

The white hands with the blue body sort of make him look like he's wearing a military dress uniform.
Even if I hate them when I see them in person, the coloration of one part is nothing. This boy rocks hard.

by **Thunder_breaker** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 8:48 pm

That is the most beautiful toy I have ever seen. ~Sob~Sob~
Does it remind anyone else of Depth Charge? I see a lot of him in there. The copter assembly shifting forward into a weapon-GENIUS! I love that the blades turn into a sword as well. Does he come with a gun?

On a different note - I like the background that is used. Any ideas how to duplicate that without buying a professional grade photography paper/cloth?

Wallpaper. Get a 4'x4' sheet of it and pin it to a wall.

Or like he's wearing stupid Mickey-Mouse gloves.

If it weren't for those ugly white hands, this toy would be a perfect 10.

Now here's a movie toy that I'll almost certainly buy. He looks flat-out wicked. Maybe the fact that he's not based on an original character broadens my acceptance of the design, I don't know... but I really like this guy.

by **sparkofchaos** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 10:53 pm

the alien face here is actually surprisingly badass looking

News Credits: 9 · by **Zeds** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 10:54 pm

OMG! That is simply awesome! So far most of the toys from the movie line look pretty decent with some well thought out transformations. I am looking forward to collecting them this summer!

Cool. Really like it.
Though they could have done something with the back of the helicopter like have it open up to missiles or split apart an shift around into big ass cannons on his shoulders.
