Not sure but I'm gonna guess cinematic? All the bots that have (CIN) after them have both movieverse and G1/CombinerWars incarnations in the game so am assuming (CIN) are the movie ones.

that makes sense, thank you.

Blaster’s Shield lasts 50% longer for each Amp Charge on him.

Signature Ability – Absorption Shield

Blaster’s Shielding system can be upgraded to absorb incoming energy attacks and repair damage. A similar upgrade was requested by his fellow Autobots for their audio receptors as an answer to his taste in music.

While Shielded

Blaster’s Shield allows him to shrug off the impact of Basic Energy Ranged Attacks and reduces a further 20% of incoming Energy Damage. Additionally Energy Attacks that hit Blaster while his Shielding is up have a 40% chance to instantly Repair Blaster for 7~17% of the opponent’s Attack Rating, if the attack is a Special Attack he repairs double that amount instead.

Weak Match-ups:

This module will greatly increase Blaster’s Ranged Damage and Speed, a perfect fit for a bot that can do the inverse to his opponent.

Repair Module

The Repair Module will add to the constant Repairs he gets with his Signature Ability unlocked.
