6 years later, this video still saving us from breaking a figure during transformation. Thank you immensely!

[@calebianking9221]

Same

[@Glitch969]

Even after all these years, this guy is still great. I love that he has a big, chunky transformation that isn’t a bunch of panel management that we see far too often these days.

[@heavyarms01h]

This is probably the best-looking G1 Blitzwing I've ever seen. They did the impossible with him: his robot mode is great, his tank mode doesn't look like garbage, and his MiG-25 Foxbat jet mode looks amazing - almost all the tank mode kibble gets hidden away. The design of this figure is amazing.

[@classicmail8239]

Blitzwing is by far one of the coolest decepticons.

[@raazaqandraaz]

Agreed he needs some more action to

[@Sigma.974]

I agree but he only starred in one episode

[@Glitch969]

Yep. He and Cyclunus are my two favorite Decepticons. I have a bit of a thing for purple Transformers.

[@davidm4566]

He is a fan of the long bomb for sure.

[@dancharles6009]

Blitzwing and Astrotrain. Triple changers rule.

[@BeasBotBonanza]

No joke this is one of the best jet formers i've ever seen, especially considering he is a triple changer! I've always wondered why they never made more MiG31 type jetformers because its such a blocky aircraft in real life and is therefore perfect for hiding a robot in. Much better than the F15s that the seekers are because its a much slimmer airframe. I've never dropped the money for a third party transformer before but this might be my first...

[@CGJ7755]

MandaloreTheMad MiG-25.

[@rebeccaluis1223]

MandaloreTheMad simple but cool

[@JohnnyEFromNC]

I’ve just started with some third parties. I have this one and I have a third party WFC Megatron. I just got my Weijiang Mpp10 Optimus, which is an absolute must!! He is huge

[@HYPERELITEX616]

if hasbro were to use the design, it will be a shellformer to cut corners like usual

[@crayalt]

I just dropped 150 on him rip my wallet 💀

[@Ryasis12345]

I bought mine off of eBay and I love him!

[@leetri]

Man, that might be THE most articulated thumb I have ever seen on a toy so far.

[@junliyu2944]

Nope. Almost ALL the masterpiece figures have that

[@leetri]

junli yu A rotating hinge with a double ball joint and then a joint at the knuckle? Most masterpieces have a ball joint at the base and maybe a joint at the knuckle.

[@Asher_Tye]

DX9 boxes are almost artwork in and of themselves.

[@zookdom3347]

DX9 boxes are part of the value of a DX9 figure. I sold my DX9 Chigurh, and I really did not want to give up the box :P

[@crowningchristopher8273]

I really dig this figure. He looks great in each mode and doesn't take a day and a half along with a degree in engineering to transform.

[@davidyancey7761]

ahh you are the one who does the "visible head syndrome!" You should do a "best of" one of those. great stuff man!!

[@JohnnyEFromNC]

Got this figure. Just mastered the alt modes. I love the robot and jet modes. The tank mode... it’s not my fave. It’s fine when you look at it from the side. But not so much from the front or back. It’ll have to grow on me. I’m getting Decepticon repro labels in the mail so I’ll put one on the chest just under the cockpit. And maybe one on each wing.

[@crassii8904]

Why do third party companies do better molds of Transformers than Hasbro? Takara is good too.

[@rebeccaluis1223]

Jarmo Verriet that is true

[@axltheriolu8791]

The reason why third party companies do better molds is because they WANT their figures to be good and actually cared about transformers while Hasbro just sees another franchise to milk so they don't really care how accurate they are just slap a somewhat similar design and the name and call it a day

[@crassii8904]

Axl The riolu it’s a shame it’s like that

[@sapientcube9788]

@@crassii8904 More likely because hasbro is first and foremost a TOY company which makes toys for CHILDREN. Not to mention they also have a fair few action figure lines, a series of toy guns, and something involving pastel horses. What I'm getting at is that the people at Hasbro probably have to divide their time effort and resources into more than just what amounts to puzzles that can be posed.

[@duongallen4094]

RWD that excuse can be applied to some of those mass produced line, but not those high end collector’s figure like the Masterpiece line. In which case Takara takes the designing role

[@TaliaIGhul]

I'm kinda impressed with the DX9 stuff so far.

[@CollinBuckman]

The turret looks a bit small for the large tank mode if you ask me.

[@ls_rus4666]

Painis joke?

[@HybrydATP64]

"Crush the REBELLION, join the EMPIRE " STAR WARS in transformers okayy 🤔🙄😶

[@decpticonscramble692]

I also thought of Star Wars.

[@dominicfeliciano9462]

Name: Blitzwing. Faction: Decepticon. Function: ground air commander. Alt modes: tank, jet, and robot. Subgroup: Triplechangers. Motto:” Destroy first, think later.”

[@BoozyBeggar]

I love this Blitzwing, I absolutely LOVE it. It's like a giant CHUG with MP complexity. I *LOVE* it.

[@deathepyon1743]

This is amazing in so many ways, the transformation, the style, the ferocity, just the pure epicness that is Blitzwing!! The only gripe I have is how the hands look, I know it's for the transformation and it is deferentially a unique way to store them they just don't fit the menacing persona they look like they would be torn off in a arm wrestle. But, that don't harbor much towards the main figure and I can look past it, besides I'm pretty shore everyone who get's this wouldn't display him with open hands that much. Blitzwing for life!! XD

[@keithwesaw5308]

These reviews are so helpful I would be lost without them sometimes!!

[@nedmurry7283]

This Blitzwing keeps blowing my mind over everything this figure does. The changes are so unique and there's surprises at 'every twist and turn' the hands are amazing and the turret is so well thought out (for robot mode)

[@dude666fx]

This is an excellent video Emgo it explains everything really really and your suggestions and personal touches made a lot of difference when I transformed mine ( just got the reissue) I also Just wanted to say many thanks for all the great videos over the years, I've been tuning in since 2017. Keep up to great work bud and don't grow up

[@arielcordero]

At first, I was a bit unsure about Gewalt. But I just got him and I think he is a great figure all around. Not much diecast as far as I can tell, but he is a big bot and doesn't really need it much. He is pretty stable as he is. Could've used a bit more paint, but ht looks great as is. The transformation into each mode is surprisingly easy and enjoyable (thanks again for your easy to follow, step by step transformation video guide). I'm really impressed with this Blitzwing. And I'm glad I finally decided to get him. Now I have to get Astrotrain. lol

[@goawayihavecommentstomake1488]

I got this guy and used yr video to transform him- thanks! He’s pretty incredible; not overly complex, not too much panel forming, but capable of incredible changes. His jet form is an amazing rendition of a MiG-25, his tank mode completely hides features that give away his other forms, and his robot mode looks tough and definitely passes my “does it look cool?” criteria. I like his jet mode air intakes next to his head, like on a seeker jet (Starscream etc) in bot mode. I think it just looks cool and doesn’t interfere with his shoulders at all. I also think I prefer him with his wings fully extended, again, like the Seeker jets. I’m looking forward to doing some additional detail, wear and tear and depth painting on him.

[@companylovesmisery1463]

28:48 the gun finally gets some love. I always prefer Transformers whose accessories, especially weapons, store unobtrusively. Or, you know, AT ALL. That's quite rare that a figure is designed with absolutely no place for weapon storage.

[@aarcade6676]

Well to be fair his tan coloured gun stores well in every mode. The purple gun is just a bonus.

[@mangjose5446]

i thought that decepticon tank was astrotrain too.. a train, a space shuttle and a tank. they are almost the same color.. astrotrain and blitzwing

[@keithwesaw5308]

Once again thank you just got him from plane to tank by reversing your review instructions!! You are professional at doing this!

[@kevinz5992]

''give me your face'' that is a transformers reference right there lol

[@rjc7289]

When you brought out the 4 triple changers at around 4:00, it got me thinking. Are there also Masterpiece versions of Springer and Broadside?

[@acoote1701]

There are multiple versions of 3rd Party MP scale Springers out there, Emgo has reviewed most if not all of them, so far there hasn't been an MP scale Broadside that I'm aware of.. YET

[@LiamDyC]

​@@acoote1701 Fansproject had their own Broadside, which EmGo also reviewed

[@SilverSpoonRiche]

Okay no joke, this is definitel the most well done of the three Deception Triple Changers. Very decent tank mode. FREAKING AWESOME JET MODE! As you said, if you didn't know better you would never believe the jet is also a tank! Makes me miss my own G1 Blitzwing. ;^_^ Needs some Decepticon insignia on the wings and turret though. Then it will be PERFECT!

[@007hellz]

This dx9 is by far the best version of blitzwing I seen so far. 3rd party tformers are pumping out some good work.

[@jodonnell05]

Can you do a collection tour? Plz

[@asmr_daisuke1785]

YES he needs to do that!!!!!!

[@dinoduelist2219]

Well this is odd I just watched jobby review this figure

[@mangjose5446]

those dx9 blitzwing and astrotrain are my favorite. amazing super transformation and engineering ❤

[@midget-low3113]

When are you going to play Transformers Devastation on EmGames?

[@skepticalpunk170]

he's finished with emgames

[@benbot0733]

Poor blitzwing ;_;

[@froglet1232]

ben bot07 why ?

[@basssboom]

thumb's up for g1 precious

[@camrendavis6650]

Blitzwing is my fourth favorite Decepticon. Tripple changers are the strongest types of transformers (next to Seekers and Phase Sixers)

[@franciscoduarteauthor]

This is one of the best models I've ever seen. That MiG-25 mode is the best jet mode I've ever seen on a transformer. Like someone else said, it's surprising those jets are not used more often.

[@SirBroccolingtonIII]

It also scales surprisingly well with the MP seeker mould. Yeah, it's a little bigger than it should be, but I was expecting it to be at least 2× bigger than Starscream's jet mode.

[@combocat9444]

blizwing is cool

[@Mstngklrz06]

great review emgo. great triple changer, dx9 does a pretty good job with these

[@lesserz6310]

It finally hit me after seeing other reviews, it's the distance between the turrent and treads that has been throwing it off to me. Also the tail of the plane being a box. But it came to me after seeing G1 tank comparison.

[@theredoctopus3196]

this Jet actually looks like that in real life. it's a Russian fighter jet but I forgot it's name

[@theredoctopus3196]

it's a MiG-25

[@lesserz6310]

Can Seref Kurtulus Yeah man, I understood that about the plane. It was that tank that was putting me off from buying it, but I couldn't exactly figure out why until just now.

[@nextgenwarrior]

I don't know why, but the turret going from the top of the tank to the undercarriage of the jet, and eventually split in half and stored in the legs is just really really cool to me.

[@nalditwisterron]

Wow.. Proper triple changer Love the complexity, makes all modes look amazing

[@fangiresaga]

Blitzwing's out of ammo and his sword is busted, "You know what...time for the big gun." Tossing his weapons aside before the cannon launches off his back and into his hand, "Megatron's got nothing on me!" BOOM!!!

[@Eric-lb5ok]

Thanks a lot for making this video. I never would have figured out how to transform him without it.

[@littlespiderjunior6798]

Woah this starscream figure is awesome! (This is a joke don’t take it seriously

[@keithwesaw5308]

Thank you I just changed him back to tank because your review was excellent you are a master!

[@Ryasis12345]

The "Mt. Rushmore" is actually from Season 2 Episode 36 where the triple changers try to overthrow Megatron. It was in the beginning where Starscream, Astrotrain, and Blitzwing carved their faces, and Megatrons into the mountain then had the discussion that one of them does not belong..........HINT HINT Megatron!!

[@wingzerofor]

That's an awesome jetmode for a triple hanger, great review as usual.

[@largol33t1]

Amazing, I didn't know in plane mode, he looks exactly like a MiG-25 Foxbat. The high tails and shape of the air intakes and cockpit are unmistakable. Even the landing gear is similar in shape to that of a real MiG-25

[@acoote1701]

Gewalt's jet mode is a MiG-25 Foxbat, his Tank mode is a type of Japanese Army Tank (the model of tank escapes me, but it's been retired from service for a number of years now, from memory)

[@LiamDyC]

​@@acoote1701 For his appearance in the IDW comics, Blitzwing turned into a MiG-31 Foxhound

[@acoote1701]

@@LiamDyC I knew he turned into a MiG-31 Foxhound in the IDW comics, the 31 was a successor to the 25 in a lot of ways, based off what the Soviets had been able to learn from the F-14 Tomcat program

[@LiamDyC]

​@@acoote1701 It's a Type 74 tank

[@DinobotMaximize]

I just recently got this guy! Mine's front landing gear is just as loose if not looser than yours. Any chance you done something to make it tighter? And if so what did you do or what would you suggest?

[@la-nk8hq]

Dinobot Maximize the similest thing to do is fold up a small piece of construction paper and wrap the landing gear shaft and gently push it in. thenpaper will hold it firmly without needing to modify. very easy tomremove as well.

[@tucktimosprime]

DX9 didn't give him the same attention to detail like they did with Astrotrain, this guy looks like he was made by IKEA.. Good review as always, really enjoying this channel..

[@caffeinedelusions]

The fact that he has an integrated gun thoroughly explains why the extra gun gets no respect.

[@Rapid99]

This figure is really nice!, if only I hadn't committed to TFCs Liokaiser I'd have some money to get this :|

[@titanfreak2936]

TF Fan peoblems

[@markasuncion6955]

That is a very clean jet mode. You really won't notice that it turns to a tank except for the tank threads. Still, digging this figure

[@NoahRichard]

Your enthusiasm never grows old!

[@Tarn92]

Third party figures are now surpassing officially licensed figures. Come on Hasbro step your game up. Most of the Titans return figures are garbage.

[@samuelmartinez4700]

great job on the review. smooth transformations too. i herd this one was a pain but you crushed it.

[@AdamPrime3274]

with his neck's transformation joint makes him like a rockem sockem robot

[@AutomatedComet]

2:42 My favorite song. Visible head syndrome!

[@BeasBotBonanza]

my only complaint about the looks of this fig is that his cockpit canopy is a bit small in bot mode but its worth it since the jet mode is so perfect

[@Freddyfan1428]

Is it just me or were others expecting EmGo to quip as he took out Blitzwing's fists, "Release the hands!" lol! ;-)

[@kre8or465]

even if hes not perfectly cartoon accurate, hes still one of the coolest 3rd party figures of all time, hands down.... in my opinion.... I just really like triple changers and transformers with unique modes (battletrap and skytreads come to mind)

[@Outeggy]

you should do a live event showing all your transformers

[@markdrakan]

Great review, helped me make my mind up on him. What you think DX9 Mightron up to now?

[@AstonWave007]

Very nicely done Blitzwing.

[@blitzwing-ou2rw]

this is my favorite blitzwing figure of all time ..........great review emgo

[@ultrajazz5335]

Just got this guy and man he is so cool. He is definitely one to get. He does fit nice with the rest of my MP collection.

[@javeronh.3996]

a jetformer that looks like a jet. only took having to be a triple changer. ha ha. really good job on the design

[@murdermusprime7065]

out of all the triple changers Blitzwing gets all the love from Hasbro Takara and 3rd party figures.

[@ReneeSitra]

That's funny I was just thinking that it was complete bullshit that blitzwing didn't get a combiner wars or masterpiece figure But I can settle for this

[@SilverSpoonRiche]

"JOIN THE EMPIRE!" So is this a Star Wars Crossover and Blitzwing changes into a Tie Defender or something?

[@Livingbog]

SilverSpoon01 I would pay money to see that

[@brandonmiranda6529]

Megs should have said "just scan a boat then." Blitzwing would say "BUT MY PARENTS DIDNT TEACH ME TO SCAN!!" Megatron facepalms. "Then how are you a tank and a jet?" Blitzwing runs away crying. "Don't know!!"

[@LizardSuit]

I think the turret is a little small in tank mode

[@MTWENTY]

Had the tank mode been a little more thought out and he scaled better with masterpiece figures this would’ve been an immediate but for me......

[@josephreynolds2374]

Blitzwing was incredibly cool, shame he was such an overlooked character.

[@The_Draganox]

Emgo, will you be getting the DX9 War in Pocket Hulkie? It looks pretty funny, in a good way. I didn't even know about their War in Pocket line.

[@johnsadler2766]
