In Hand Images of Prime Wars Blast Off with Megatronus Showing Different Options for Chest

Darn. I wanted to use the Takara version transformation but he kinda looks plain with the all brown chest.

Also, bizarre decision in its using the Shuttler transformation instead.

They are tampographs, not stickers, though they are meant to mimic some G1 toy sticker detailing. No Deluxe sized figures or smaller have yet had stickers in the Generations line, outside of smaller partner figures included with some Titan Class releases. Stickers have mostly come on only Voyager, Leader, and Titan figures for now.

If that's the case, their being tampos is even worse.

Found Inferno Yesterday. Just want to make sure though...the back of the box shows similar Prime Armor/Feet as Hun-Gurrr, only black, but what he actually came with was the same prime armor/feet as Starscream and Elita-1, does that match up with anyone else who has Inferno?

Now just to find those wave 2 Deluxe Dinobots and I'll be caught up with everything that's been spotted in the U.S. so far.

The cockpit glass needs work. Looks unfinished.

They colored it toy-accurately.

They overdid it. I guess coloring the individual sections and leaving the struts(?) as is would have been too complicated compared to a single smear.

Requesting comparisons with Jetblast in advance.

At least the jet scaled better than a shuttle

Excuse me if this has been answered before but can blast off do a rook and do hulk hands?

He can indeed.

The glass painting is kinda shoddy but otherwise I actually like this better than the Takara deco. I never minded the ochre-brown of Takara Blastoff but this is definitely nicer looking. Even the tampos are kinda cool in that old-timey toy way. Having them be optional stickers on a separate sheet for the consumer to apply if they wanted them might have been better, but they look cool.

Now I almost want to get him and the rest of CW Bruticus. Or at least, I would if I hadn't already decided I like the look of the UW Baldigus/Ruination set better. Still, this is cool.

I’m down to get one as I’ve yet to experience actual Blast Off or Strafe. I just hope it won’t be a major pain in the ass to get one.

Also, translucent hinge joints on something as small as a Titan/Prime Master is a little worrying...

Glad they went with Strafe's design instead of that UW version of Blastoff with the barrel chest.

So the only question now is, is only Robot Kingdom selling this figure?

I don't like ordering from them.

Blastoff and Strafe are the same design, just with the arms switched. Anyone can choose and use whichever chest they want for Blastoff (both Takara and Hasbro) and Shuttler/Movor. All you have to do is swap the arms then rotate the head and waist 180 degrees.

Amazon has a placeholder listing for Blast Off so I'd keep your eye on them.
