It's magnified almost times five though.

Perceptor's head is disappointing. Dunno if I'll get him.

The Ghost Starscrean head looks amazing, but making the connector out of translucent plastic is a recipe for disaster.

There is no escape from it once you are caught in a landslide.

Cool as the Cerebros and Ghost Starscream heads are... I'd be heavily reluctant to use any of them in head mode with their translucent plastic head-slot pieces. Shame too since the Cerebros head mode is the only of Spike's two modes which isn't terrifying.

Whaaaaaaaat?! It'll be fine. A bunch of stuff is made of translucent plastic and it is sturdy! Some transformer weapons, plastic forks and knives, other things I'm sure of that I can't think of currently.. ;)^

Ooh, boy those blue eyes on preceptor make a world of difference. That looks so good. Plus his Titan Master being painted is awesome. Everything else isn't different enough for me to jump on.

Ghost Starscream and Spike being translucent is indeed a bit scary, but I wouldn't worry so much about the balls, but more about the sockets inside the bodies. Any stress marks start there as I've seen.

You know, I wonder if Blitzwing will have a companion too...[/quote]Hooray!! See, errybody celebrate by using your clear plasticware to enjoy your favorite dessert.

These dang Transformers. Dang it.

Cybertronian Rhapsody

Is this a knockoff,
Or from the factory?
Bought it on ebay, I think the seller was scalping me.
Open your eyes, Robots in disguise, you see
I'm just a poor boy, can't afford takar-ara
Sixshot was a gun, now a boat.
Use to shoot, now he float.
I'd ask where's Windblade, but it doesn't really matter
to meeeeee

Yeah... I have too much time on my hands.
(Also yes I know sixshot is a sub but it just didn't flow.)

I'd just be happy for a Legends Blitzwing announcement, period. It wouldn't surprise me, though, if Takara did something similar with an extra something for Blitzwing to parallel Octane. What would be as clever as a Ghost Starscream Headmaster, though? Another thought: Blitzwing could come with a Titan Master vehicle instead, akin to Broadside, who will come with Repugnus' body.

Maybe two extra Titan Masters to mimic Animated/Thrilling 30 Blitzwing?

How did I not think of that!? That would be wonderful if Takara went to that much trouble, and heck, why wouldn't they? Fingers crossed!
