Could that be a combining Targetmaster Haywire?

Blurr was not a convertible. Other than that nice design. But MP Scale means no buy for me. I wish they would have gone through with that G1 style head for Generations Blurr.

Like SXS Blurr better.

Think UT's Blurr is too flat in car mode. Think car mode looks more like a boat or jet, less like a car.

Hrm...I'm not feeling that alt mode at all.

Preorder up at BBTS:

Y-02 Buzzing

I thought the name "Runman" was clever, and it brought back memories of MegaMan. I guess it's time to update the title of this thread.

BBTS is reporting on their pre order listing for this. That the toy stand around Nine inches tall in robot mode. Think the $109 price is low for such a big toy.

Doubt the Robot mode is anywhere near Nine inches tall. As these have been wrong before. Guessing somewhere around 8.3 inches tall in robot height.

The Blurr design would make a good base for an Elita-1 3rd party fig.

He's flatter than we thought the earth was.

eeewwwwwwwww....
Now I know what two of my biggest TF pet peeves are:
Unpainted rims.
Poorly designed/disfunctional crotch pieces that make things look weird.

That's pretty much what I was thinking. Dat codpiece!!

Masterpiece crotch ?

If lifting up that waist piece. Is the only way to get high karate kicks and a sitting pose. Then it's a failure in design.

It's only weird if you let it be weird....

Here's a statement from RobotKingdom which was posted earlier on TFW2005:

We have contacted Unique Toys and they said they will be making changes to the crotch plate, Probably divide into 3 different movable parts so the whole thing won't stand up when you want to pose his legs to a larger angle.

Let's hope this doesn't negatively affect alt mode, which also has its detractors.
