Here it is: my last part of my review for Legacy Leader Class Blitzwing. Its time to focus on the much maligned "jet" mode. This TRANSFORMERS: LEGACY 7-inch VOYAGER G2 UNIVERSE JHIAXUS robot toy is inspired by the animated series, Transformers: Generation 2, updated with a Generations-style design. JHIAXUS is a calculated strategist, with a vision of a united Cybertron spread across the universe. The action figure converts from robot to Cybertronian jet mode in 23 steps and comes with 2 combinable blaster accessories, including an Energon blaster that attaches in both modes. It still looks dumb, but furthers it from the idea that this is supposed to be a realistic jet. Its goofy, but kinda interesting in a strange way.
His "Hothead" personality speaks with a "rude" American accent and spouts English words and phrases such as "Hey!", "Now" and often ends sentences with "Man!" Sadly, his cannons cannot tilt forward over his shoulders when in robot mode. Though promotional photos showed the figure with a gold traditional Decepticon insignia, the final toy used the movie variant in the tampograph. Blitzwing's design was used in the More Than Meets the Eye comic book as the basis for a generic member of the Titan Hunters, chumming around with that continuity's Lugnut. Blitzwing also has a minor misassembly problem, in that his upper arms are swapped. This is the reason his wings cannot press down flush with the rest of the jet fuselage. This can be fixed by pulling off his arms, unscrewing the one screw visible on either forearm, then separating the upper arms and switching them, which makes for a much-improved jet mode.hell, no way around it. You know what.? Blitzwing is a muthaf**** war machine, let go big or go home. let’s own that massive jet mode”
If I were to rate Blitz in a scale from 1- 10, he gets a solid 7.5. He's going to look great standing with his fellow Decepticon warriors. I'll be more likely to switch him to tank mode before jet mode. The bot mode saves this toy so much, as he's the best rendition of the character. The front view wouldn't be terrible if those tank treads werent so...out there. Blitzwing was never a super trim jet, but this is ridiculous. Imagine trying to pose this on a figure stand? HARNESS THE POWER OF ENERGON: Gear up the most powerful substance on Cybertron, Energon! This Transformers Triple Changer Blitzwing figure comes with 2 articulated Energon missile hand accessories The name or term "Blitzwing" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Blitzwing (disambiguation). I know it’s because of the transformation, but I absolutely cannot get over the idea of a robot that turns into a jet needing to have fake wings in robot mode.
The large hand parts. I have absolutely no idea why they added them. They do tend to fall off. The only way they peg is with a small groove on the end corners as seen in the picture.
Great Deal
