Interesting.

Not that interested. I'm happy with Device Label Blaster.

If it's the size of a G1 tape I'm interested in Ramhorn. But it doesn't really look like it.

Anyways, Label Blaster is perfect for my needs.

I'm interested but for once I'm content with hasbros foc blaster at the moment .

Yeah, I think there are enough of this character. How about some love for characters we don't have anything on? Terrorcons? Horrorcons?

[Edit] Seacons?

I would go for a Classics Blaster to replace my FOC Blaster. This looks promising. But I’ll stick with KFC Ramhorn.

I’m one of the minority who hates Device Label Blaster. Besides the lame USB hub gimmick that raises the price, from behind he looks like he transforms into a refrigerator.

I'm with you on that. I kept contemplating DL Blaster for the longest time because of how much I love my ML Soundwave and ML SoundBlaster, but his legs always bugged me. They're way too huge and screw up his proportions from any actual 3 dimensional view.

I'd love a better Classics/Generations Blaster. Of course more than that, I'd love an MP Blaster, but I'm still confident that Takara will get around to that one eventually.

Seeing this makes me realize how much I want an MP Blaster.

Yeah, I think that's the only response I can muster as well. Call me scum, but I'm no longer of the opinion that a Transformer can get away with solely transforming into an accessory, unless we're talking Masterpiece of course.

DL blaster is by no means perfect, but I don't think hes that bad. My biggest complaint is the laptop kibble hanging off his back, i can live with the dodgy legs. If I didnt already have a blaster I would be tempted, but surely there are other more neglected characters out there as others have said. SKYLYNX, anyone?

Pass, pass and pass. Device Label and FOC Blaster are fine and dandy for me. Want my money? make something Hasbro or takara haven't made!

I've got one part of my brain saying yes you want this it's g1 and the other side is saying FOC Blaster is absolutely fine and there is no need to replace him and i agree plus i don't like the look of ramhorn . i think i have a bit of a complex.

If this had been designed to accommodate KFC's cassettes (including the oversized ones), I'd have been all over it.

Device Label Blaster doesn't work for me, I want something like this.

It will have to fit a normal TF cassette though, or be deluxe sized like ML Soundblaster. Not sure both are possible.

Transformers fans need a Classics Blaster!

Considering his alt mode is an old school boombox, I would be more than happy with him being Deluxe in size.

This was my disapointment with the recent FoC Blaster, being released as a Voyager!

If Hasbro wanted to release a repaint of FoC Soundwave as Blaster, they should have used the Deluxe version surely?
Maybe it might still happen, I dont know...

After Has/Taks people putting the kibosh on FansToys Masterpiece Blaster a year or two ago, I assumed we would have seen a G1-esque updated version of a boombox Blaster at sometime soon, but all we got was a massive Voyager Cybertronian Vehicle.


I hope Unique Toys version of Blaster gets a better reception than their take on Predaking as I think this could be a welcome addition to every Transformers fans collection!

Dear Unique Toys, large Deluxe sizing please, lots of love, Mel.

I would only have Blaster as a voyager in the g1 cartoon i always thought he was a tall robot.
Personally a deluxe blaster would never fit in my collection and until this is up for sale foc blaster is good for me he looks great with kfc cassettes

Sure i'd love a proper Blaster, who wouldn't? But i'm waaaaaaaaaaaay more pumped on that Sharkticon!!
Don't f@ck around UT. Make it happen.....fast. Please. Or at least show some more pics of it.

I'm actually liking this. A lot more than MegaSteel's, anyway.

More blocky/G1 and less sleek/modern is the way to go.

I like the knees and arms and head on this one much better than the Megasteel one. If the size is small enough to fit in with my ML Soundwave without looking too terrible, I'll probably get this and I might do so anyway even if it's too big. It's just perdy .

Yeah, I'd probably have to say I prefer this one over MegaSteel's as well. Although it might be cool to have this guy as Blaster and MegaSteel as Twincast.

My biggest uncertainty right now is still whether I can accept G1 alt. modes for Soundwave and Blaster anymore.

I don't really care if he can store cassettes or not, and I certainly don't mind having a more stylized or "modern" blaster. I care for articulation, detail and a slight sense of scale. So, knowing MegaSteel's one is voyager size, so far he's the winner for me... But we don't know the size of UT's version, do we?

We do kinda, it's also Voyager sized. I saw a pic of that Nemesis Prime repaint of Energon Optimus on Facebook earlier today. It was posed next to Pepsi Prime, and based on the size difference between that and what we can see here, this Blaster is about Voyager sized.

Hmmm... If you're right, then I don't have a favourite anymore
