In all the fiction I've seen and read, the one that stands out as having given the spotlight to Bluestreak more than any other fiction has was the much-reviled Transformers Trilogy novels (A.K.A. the "Keepers Trilogy") written by Scott Ciencin and David Cian, in which he was portrayed not as a yammering blabbermouth, but instead as a tortured soul with a heavy chip on his shoulder after his having been killed in combat by Jazz (the two were forced to fight each other to the death lest some innocent humans be killed in cold blood, and Bluestreak was willing to let Jazz be the victor to prevent further human killings), and then having his corpse being reanimated and possessed by a Keeper as its new host body. He got his life back later, but the possession left him as an unwilling sleeper agent of the Keepers until they were finally destroyed, freeing him completely in the end, but not without having endured so much misery and torment through it all.

That's a fairly nice paint job the bot mode is sporting.

I was waiting for this one as I don't have a Bluestreak MP and figured the Hasbro one would be later this year. Now it looks as though Hasbro will get my money, even though I REALLY WANT THIS COLOR!!!!!

NOT TWO SETS OF FROWNY FACES!! Seriously though, hard to pass up. I mean, BLUEstreak would've been cool if I had ANY Diaclone stuff, but I don't
I need to focus dang it!! Stop frowning!!
Why is BLUEstreak so awesome looking. I should get him just for the alt mode color. He's that good.

You made a wise choice buddy. Especially if you didn't already have the mold, and for that price. Any paint job looks good on the coolest TF ever made.

Well I have Prowl..
I have no ties to Smokescreen, and if I got BLUEstreak I might as well get Silverstreak. And then it's and endless spiral.
That I'm now contemplating...
COBOTROOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!! (said like Optimus, when he thinks Megatron is leaving at the end of MTMTE)
