New Pictures of RotF Blaze Master

I'm on the fence with this one too.

It's OK, even with the chicken legs and oddball excuse for hands.

But yea ... lackluster is the right term here.

Everyone should use it in their posts

gross

I actually really like this mold, but the "news" deco and bleh colors don't have me sold. If it had Blades' red and black color scheme or a green Springer deco, it would be much cooler. Heck, even yet another Evac deco would be better.

Gunna have to see this one in person to make a decision, methinks.

Is this a scout or deluxe?

That's ugly. Why didn't they just repaint Evac who looks similar to Blazemaster in both modes? I don't mind multiple repaints of a figure if it's an obvious homage?

I mean c'mon, you look at Evac you can see the resemblance to Blazemaster not this monstrocity.

It's like the new Banzai-tron repaint of Dreadwing when Energon Banzai-tron was obviously based on BT but again they repainted an inappropriate bot.

Another example is Clocker. We got Cybertron Clocker and Swerve, Movie Clocker Botcon Tigatron and Cheetor but where's Hot Rod?

I normally like repaints but I'm sick of missed opportunities.

After seeing more pics of this guy im kinda on the fence. The alt mode is awesome and i love chopper modes (plus theres actually a ch7 action news here) but, those chicken legs and the way the arms are make me want to pass. The head sculpt kinda redeems it but Ill wait until theres a really good gallery so i can see it from all angles.

Chicken legs and no hands... Who am I kiddin....I will pick him up for the alt mode and colors alone. Love me some chopper-formers.

Assuming by the ball-joints, it looks like a deluxe. Or a very small voyager...

Already seeing that trend. I know that the stores have a good supply in their stockrooms of the new toys
but most stores that I have gone into have abnormally full displays given the time of day and the days themselves that I have gone in. By the latter part of the day on what would normally be an inbetween stock day at the Wal-Mart nearest me, there was no need for the TF's to be restocked. I've noticed it at the Target stores in the area as well. With the economy still being crappy Hasbro isn't doing themselves any favors by coming out with less-than-stellar designs.
