Think that's a high price to pay for a 6.2 inch tall SXS Blurr 3rd party in between size classes deluxe-Voyager toy.

But this is actually not voyager, it's MP scale like the Warbotron bots. It's a new 3rd party fad, MP scale figures with neo aesthetics. Not my cup of tea.

Well, crap. That price is too much for me. Just like last time, I'll wait for clearance, because it will be coming.

Hate to admit this, but he's growing on me.

Still like Generations Blurr better... but this is growing on me.

Okay, that really reminds me of the big armoured jet powered Decepticons in Fall Of Cybertron.

I dunno, just doesn't feel like Blur to me. Not digging the shield.

You're a United Blurr kind of guy? Interesting... I always liked the Generations deco a bit better.

Hey SXS......do a voyager Hotrod/Rodimus and do a pre-order exclusive with an IDW style head. Could be your 2015 comeback!

The sculpt is beautiful. But it looks like he is devoid of paint apps. Like, a final production prototype or something.

I really like it, but it's just too big. If only they had made it the size of Gen Blur I'd be so down for this.

News Credits: 4 · by **craggy** » Wed Mar 04, 2015 12:22 pm

too big for my liking, and I only recently got Generations Blurr, and love him*

I can't see myself paying 3rd party cash for this, even if it looks kinda cool.

insert (seemingly) obligatory rant towards people who are excited for this project, and those who're making it, and then come back and read this again 40 times in the same thread because that's how we roll nowadays.

*thanks Va'al!

I really love the sculpt. I really hate the size.

If this reaches Continuously Variable levels of clearance, I'll have no excuse to not buy him.

Think the robot mode reaching Almost seven inches tall. Is due to the broom stick thing on top of the helmet.

Ignoring the broom stick. By just measuring from toe to the top of the hemet minus the broom stick. Will probably give the robot a height of around 6.5 inches tall.

I'm with you on this. Waiting for this to go on clearance until I decide to buy.

Think the $104 US import price is high for a Voyager class toy. A fair price for me to
pay for this is under $70.

Calculating this is clearance bound as it might be a bit too tall to fit into HasTak's MP Voyager class cars bots toy scale.

Thinking it might fit in decent with the 30th Generations Voyager class toys. As most 30th Voyagers were around this robot height.

Is it just me, or does he look kind of....bland. Maybe some stickers would help. I don't know. I thought I would be more excited for a truer to G1 cartoon Classics update, but I'm not...

Paint!!!

Really, what does he have besides a little yellow? Everything on him is just different casts of blue.

This take on Blurr looks really nice, so much so I would definitely replace my Generations version with this slightly taller bot!
