2. Hasbro revealed the figure as Autobot Blanker, not Pointblank, so he will be releasing in the West as Blanker.
Blanker is the stupidest f-ing name to replace his actual name of Pointblank. I went back and saw that they were releasing him under this stupid ass name after I posted.
So no correction, this name swap crap confused the hell out of me.
I agree, blanker is the dumbest copyright name swap they could do.
I'd say it's the least dumb one. At least Blanker is the character's name in Japan, so they are still calling the character by a name linked to him since G1. It's not like they called him "Redcar" or "Poopybot".
Now I want to report you. But anyway, I'd actually be less insulted by redcar or potblank/pitplank/poblank...
