The LEGACY of Blitzwing | #transformers Legacy Leader Class Blitzwing Review
This video is meant for adult collectors and not for kids.

[@MisterBurgerBeachball]

Little anecdote about spikey bits being made in soft plastic. So MPM Megatron had a lot of spikes cast in soft plastic, and of course at least a couple people complained. In comes KO MPM Megatron, which changed all the soft plastic into hard plastic. And guess what? Some of the spikes snapped. People tend to not care about toy regulations this, toy regulations that, but this just goes to show that some things are made of soft plastic for a reason beyond "toy regulations".

[@Jedishill680]

Softer plastic for spikes and pointy objects also make figures with them less of a hassle to handle

[@revampedrenegotiate]

Cough cough, *planet x Megatron.* Thing can easily cut your finger with the back spikes.

[@Flandre_Scarlet8]

Personally. I dont mind soft plastic at all, it's just a way for small kids won't get hurt and if thin soft plastic was just normal plastic,it would just snap off like a twig. And if hasbro would make like.. A legacy IDW universe Whirl (Please hasbro) for example, his hands/Claws would be soft plastic so small kids won't get cut or stabbed and so they won't snap off

[@RingoLoadagain]

I do think that hastak takes into account the longevity of their figures more than 3p/KO companies do as well.

[@elxr9434]

I hate rubber swords but that said my Netflix nemesis primes sword snapped in like 2 hrs

[@localr0bot]

Honestly genuinely surprised by how much I loved this guy. The transformation is addicting, the robot mode is absolutely phenomenal, the alt modes are definitely compromised but still really fun to me, the paint work and the sculpting is excellent, there is so much I just adore about this guy. Highlight of the line to me

[@terogates1]

I agree about that transformation being addicting

[@Customlycool]

Animated Blitzwing is close to perfect. The tank jet and the actually tank mode (as wacky as it is) work for the animated feel.

[@moham-wp2jq]

The fact that blitzwing is one of my favourite purple color scheme characters and now he's got a unique toy like the titans return-animated one,make this toy even more better

[@theonewhotouches]

Little fun fact blitzwing is actually meant to have the tank turret facing opposite of the cockpit not parallel everyone in the g1 animation staff just mistransformed him and now he has a COCKpit

[@choppergunner8650]

Exactly. Blitzwing is supposed to be both a Soviet MiG-25 Foxbat and a Japanese Type 74 tank. The tank mode clearly has a sloped upper glacis with molded headlights (which also become the jet's engines), which is exactly like the real-life vehicle's upper glacis. The G1 animation staff messed something up, which led to the entire thing about him having a cockpit in the front of the tank today. Not to mention, but I think I also saw an original Diaclone ad (where they also show an unreleased triple changer that was both an AH-64 Apache and an F-14-looking jet), and I think the guys behind the ad also did not understand the toy's looks, because I think they also had the cockpit at the front. It was supposed to do this cool thing where the helis attack and the tanks transform into jets to chase after, but I guess the guys were like "oh, the jet canopy is in the front of the vehicle!", which is completely nonsensical.

[@megazaracklordofdeath]

Most people seem to fail to grasp that blitwing's jet mode is a mig-25, which is known as a very large and chonky jet, instead of a perfectly seemless f15 eagle.

[@banobobot]

Yeah, but the MiG 25 isn’t that chunky, nor does it have an additional pair of wings below the main ones.

[@bilal_Hadjlaoui907]

as much as the kibble runiee the alt mods,i think with a reissue release,or with a heavy retool,i think legacy blitzwing will be the best triple changer alongside thrilling 30/generations springer and siege astrotrain,i hope for more solid triplechangers(we really need a new octane and broadside,sandstorm)

[@LegendaryGary17]

I'm gonna have an unpopular opinion, I like the jet mode. I feel that they intentionally left the tank kibble there because they were trying to be screen accurate. Let's be honest, blitzwing was never supposed to have an aerodynamic jet mode, it's a tank going to jet, we are kinda expecting too much.

[@izzik2781]

Fair. Except Titans Return did it better with less kibble, and a more proportional jet, and the treads face down to potentially act as landing gear. So this new one is just worse is most ways

[@shockwaveshockwave356]

@SilverSurfer-mg6tihard to do it when you have to make that jet turn to a tank, then into a robot, with decent enough posability, and on top of all of that make it look g1. You also have a budget that forces you to compromise aspects of the figure for the sake of not going over budget

[@shockwaveshockwave356]

⁠@@izzik2781titans return blitz wing also used shitty stickers and didn’t have to worry about where the head goes. TR Blitz also doesn’t have to worry about being G1 accurate.

[@izzik2781]

@@shockwaveshockwave356 I have the Takara Legends version. No stickers, and easily more G1 accurate than the Legacy. Also the headmaster doesn't count as a criticism. It's something you personally didn't like and that's fine, but the reason it's not a valid criticism is because its inclusion doesn't change the design of the figure. The only reason the headmaster exists is because it was the line gimmick, but you can see how it would have worked if it wasn't included. The head would have just folded into the chest where the other gimmick is.

[@shockwaveshockwave356]

@@izzik2781 that’s the takara version though. Not the standard release. And the headmaster gimmick doesn’t bring that figure down whatsoever, I brought it up to simply point out the designers didn’t have to worry about it unlike the ones that worked on legacy blitz. And again. Titans Return Blitzwing didn’t have to worry about being g1 accurate. It nailed down the look and expanded on it while legacy basically nailed it 1:1. Both are good figures, but they each had different priorities when being made, is all.

[@GauthamSwaminathan]

Here’s a tip. Flip the jet mode upside down. Now you have a cybertronian tank jet hybrid mode for Blitzwing!

[@bilal_Hadjlaoui907]

Blitzwing is always been my favourite triple changer besides springer-broadside and sandstorm,octane and astrotrain,especially his role in the g1 cartoon and his cool looking design,while his TR toy did give the character a lot of love (it needs some more articulation),i honestly love this figure,the robot mod is a pure mini masterpiece,but the kibble kinda ruined the alt mods,i honestly want a fever dream out of this mold,i hope if we can get more solid triple changers like energon scorponok,cybertron megatron and generations/thrilling 30 springer and siege astrotrain etc...

[@moham-wp2jq]

One of the most unique blitzwing toys ever,the jet mod were unique and great,the robot mod looks very accurate,this figure is really give me a lot of titans return vibes,i honestly want to see a animated blitzwing repaint for this mold

[@ragingsaviorkami9862]

I'm absolutely in love with mine. Due to limited budget I was hesitant on whether I should get him, but arm posability seems to be much better than I thought. I love the sculpt, I love the mold, I love the transformation, the accessories, the alt modes, even the kibble. Definitely worth it. That does not go on to say that it doessn't leave much to be desired. There was so much room for improvement and better looking alt-modes. Kibble management is this figure's main issue.

[@octobotimus]

It’s honestly sad how this figure focuses and purposely goes out of its way to replicate animation errors and the animators mistaking what the G1 toy was supposed to be.

[@domydomy6668]

Honestly my only complaint about this figure is how those arm panels are as well as the wings on the lower legs not pegging in the best

[@Itransformit]

Keeping my Titans Return version, it's plenty good (at least for me). I did however see that someone removed most of the tank parts on this and displayed him without the tank kibble which really improved the jet mode a lot. Don't know exactly what they did but it removed most of it quite easily.

[@backyardboy5236]

I like to think of the hulk hands as like ancient artifacts from the primes like leige Maximos arm from prime not hard to believe Blitzwing may have picked up something like that on one of his many errands runs he does for Megatron

When they made a legacy blitzwing I was hoping they would make it like a new version of animated blitzwing cause the face thing is cool

[@ZeeengMicro]

As someone who owned the G1 Blitzwing before knowing about the cartoon, I can say for sure that the protruding cockpit in tank mode was supposed to be in the back as a thruster, It was even shown in the manual.

[@duyphan4617]

well. and that was before you knew about the cartoon.

[@izzik2781]

[@izzik2781]

@@duyphan4617 yeah I know. So why design figures that look like animation errors? Why not design figures that are accurate to the intended design?

[@ThyBigCheddar]

​@@izzik2781 Blitzwing was consistently drawn that way in the show. At that point it isn't an animation error, that's just what he looks like in the G1 cartoon. He may have been drawn that way because of an error, but he was still designed that way the entire time.

[@awesomusprime8611]

The tank mode is the perfect example of why animation accuracy is not always a good thing. I would be perfectly okay with the jet mode being trash if the tank mode was great but that’s just not the case. The cockpit just makes it look terrible and it was 100% intentional. Thankfully the robot mode looks good, but sadly it’s just too short and I don’t just mean for a leader class figure. Blitzwing and Astrotrain were both larger than Megatron in G1 so having this and the Siege Astrotrain be shorter than the Siege Megatron just hurts. I wish this figure was better, I was so hoping for the perfect mainline Blitzwing but I guess I’ll just have to wait until Hasbro gives him another go after a few more years.

[@choppergunner8650]

The tank mode looking like it does nowadays is thanks to an animation error way back in G1. If you look at the G1 Blitzwing toy, it has the jet canopy in one side, and then the tank's upper glacis with the jet engines under it on the other. Funny enough, the guys behind the show got the front of the tank wrong, since the toy has both the upper glacis and molded headlights, but the canopy for the jet would technically be where the engine sits on the tank. Blitzwing is a Type 74 tank, and if you look it up, you can see the sloped upper glacis on the front, just like the toy does. I wouldn't even say it's 100% the animation team's fault, because the original Diaclone ad (where they also show an unreleased triple changer that could transform into either an Apache helicopter or an F-14-looking jet) also had this same error as far as I know, where they would make a cool sequence of the tanks transforming into jets, but they also got the original toy wrong. One mistake led to several mistakes later on. And seems that nobody notices it, either.

[@moham-wp2jq]

Can we apperciate the fact that that this toy manged to give us one of the best robot mods,but did sacriface the alt mod ?

[@izzik2781]

No, because the Takara Legends Blitzwing still looks just as good, if not better, and didn't sacrifice the alt modes nearly to the same degree

[@keiz5052]

⁠@@izzik2781yeah because we love a bunch of purple stuff just hanging right off the back of the tank mode !! also wtf are those proportions also notably worse engineering also lack of poseability

[@izzik2781]

@keiz5052 sure, it has compromises. And the articulation isn't up to modern standard. But it also cost half the price at retail, it's bigger, it's both better and more accurately proportioned, and still has better engineering. The Titans Return had compromises due to trying to be a triple changer at the Voyager price. The Legacy is compromised for..............no reason. Its just bad. The TR mar have the Jet wings down the side of the tank, but at least it doesn't have a democracy manifest on the front

[@keiz5052]

@@izzik2781 ‘cost half the price at retail’ didnt know leaders were 70 whole dollars also its compromised because _it is still very much a generations figure with a budget of its own_ like dont tell me you actually expected all modes to be near-flawless because that is insanely unrealistic for any mainline triple changing figure now i _do_ think that more budget couldve been allocated from those ,, weird gorilla hand things that have no actual reason to be there but even then theres not much else they couldve done hienstly

[@izzik2781]

@keiz5052 where I live Voyagers are $50 and Leaders are $100. So yeah, double the price. And no, it's not just compromised because it's still a generations figure. Its compromised because of bad design decisions. And no, I don't expect a mainline figure designed for children to be flawless. But I do expect it to be better than a figure that cost half the price from 5 years earlier. I also expect that if you're going to ruin the tank mode by adding the Schlong on the front of the for the sake of "toon accuracy", then it should at least be the right shape, colour, and be the correct tank. Which it isn't. So if it's not going to be sculpted to look like the tank in the show, why does it have the penis for toon accuracy? Why ruin the mode in the name of accuracy if literally nothing about any of it is accurate?

[@S0n0fG0D]

Also, I really don't mind the jet mode. They made 2 practically perfect modes, at least one mode is always going to suffer when it comes to triple changers. It's just a fact. They made a near perfect tank mode and a PERFECT robot mode. Plus the chonky jet is just funny.

[@Jetblast01]

Like this figure. Only issue I have is the QC issue involving the folding tank treads. The tab just doesn't work. I had to use thick tape just to hold it in. Other than that, solid figure. I honestly dont give af about the tank mode. I like to pretend the tank has a "pilot seat" on the front for a driver and boosters for mobility.

This is a good figure with some solid transformation sequencing. The robot mode's writs are very nice with their inward movement thanks to transformation. Toyhax does a great job with this figure the jet mode's under wing gets caked with missile pods and the tank mode's shlong is decked out to be a battering ram.

[@tehuselessguig3138]

blitzwing should own the "weird" look for his alt modes. something like the Halo pelican/scorpion instead of regular earth jet/tank

[@serPomiz]

blitzwing has always been one of my favourite transformers. this one is pretty kibly, but FFS, on-screen blitwing was just as kibbly! legacy gives the impression of sturdiness that is somewhat missiong from the other version, and the engieneering is superior to anything that was before the veicles mode are all serviceable; the tank is a 1:1 to both the inspiration and to the G1 appearence; the jet is chonky, but every bio litterally has it just as chonky, the cartoon intro has it just as chonky. the kibble is a bit visible, but yet again, pay attention to the intro. the very same parts, visible treads aside, is there. the only note, is that the 'point' has a separate cover on the top a small note, this model while extremelly similar to the cartoon, but is absolutelly identical to the Blitzwing from Transformers Devastation. check the model wiever, shlong cover included I have to make a confession here, I had the chanche to grab one of those "right after the official announcement but boxless" copies for 50 and I decided not to grab it. as now it has been impossible to get a copy here for less than twice that, I am still kicking myself for not being a asshole in that case the gloves are just, what? at least they can be fit in all modes

[@someonewhocommentsonyoutub3779]

This is why too much G1 accuracy, whether it be screen or toy, can actively be a problem. The nose cone was based off a mistake due to animators not realizing the reference material they had included the tank being mistransformed, and so much of the tank being visible in the jet was just due to engineering limitations. We've come so far, and to deliberately mess it up when it can easily be avoided this time around is downright stupid, all to pander to nostalgia

Hey. it's me Joker. sorry about everything, good luck on youtube. I'm gonna get some appointments and hopefully fix what is going on.

So thing about blitswings altmodes, he’s always been designed like that, even in the g1 artwork so I personally can’t complain about their choice regarding that as in I don’t mind it cause it’s accurate, but I completely get why people don’t like it, I just ends up making the other modes look incomplete and wacky but then again, he flew with those chunky wings in the series so is it really that wrong?

[@Michchall]

Small tip for Blitzwing tank barrel. Use fork from core Skywarp, it has small enough pin to securely peg into barrel and can work as adapter for blast effects (can hold even big ones like those from Omega etc.).

Is so bizarre as a figure. None of the modes look quite right, but the transformation steps between them are so fun and engaging that I can’t help but keep doing it

[@inosuke2679]

One thing I will say about him is the head mold I love it

[@robthepuppet7007]

As bad as the jet mode looks as a jet, I’m okay with it when I think about who blitzwing is as a character. Blitzwing is this hulking brute who is all about causing mayhem, and pummeling people, so a tank of course fits him, but jets always feel secondary for me. Even in the bumblebee movie when Blitz attacks he only uses the jet mode as a sort of speed boost to assist him as he pummels bumblebee. With astrotrain and octane I think about both modes, but with Blitzwing it’s all about the tank with the addition of flight via jet. And this jet mode as chunky and non-areodynamic as it is conveys that character really well for me, a sort of “yeah I’m not faster than a seeker but I hit harder and I’m going to ram you straight into the pavement” type of decepticon. So for me this jet gets a little bit of a pass

[@trashmammal9430]

I feel like they could have found a way of the arms and tank bits pegging together ans swinging around in jet mode so the tank stuff is hidden by/a part of the wings and the arms are less egregious hanging out the bottom

Hope the price drops on Blitzwing soon,I just found legacy Galvatron for $22 probably because he was released twice but I would still pay $30-$35 for Blitzwing during the right time bracket(I've seen extras people just aren't buying)It has to be at just the right time because a few months after it disappears from shelves the price will begin to rise again.

I watched a video on blitzwing don’t remember the KZbinr but the turret is facing the wrong way the cockpit of the jet is supposed to be on the back of the tank. Also they used color theory to separate the vehicles where this is going based on what was in the cartoon the original idea was that the other modes colors would be erased by the mind. The g1 artists didn’t catch on this and so we got this bad version of blitz to deal with.

On the fence with this one. Only ever owned the Animated and thrilling 30 which I feel almost broke me as TF collector as in it was that bad. Gun and sword were literally the only redeemable quality I remember from a toy despite it's Voyager price felt flimsy, and cheap whichever mode he was in. Legacy looks to have done a decent enough job, accessories again are good though could easily do without the glowey hand bits. Strange they'd give this guy a rubber sword when I literally just got Legacy Laser Prime, and is sword though transparent is non pliable, and super pointy in that you would not want to stab yourself with it.

if only the backpack could rotate then the treads would line up with the wings and you could fold out the secondary wings. At least then it would look like the G1 jet. One rotation joint instead of those stupid mittens would have made a huge difference.

I love when you have figures in the background of videos foreshadowing future ones. it gives a strange sense of continuity/something to look forward to lol.

I think that your nit picking toy guy, he this blitzwing is probably the best main line version of him, cant really nit pick on the kibble cause its a triple changer most of them have some form of it as there are 2 vehicles and a robot plus im pretty sure he had it in the cartoon in robot mode comprimises will always be made for triple changers.

I actually like the jet mode. It's uniquely Blitzwing and evokes how it appeared in the toon and the original toy. Sure it's not aerodynamic in the slightest, but it's certainly got a special charm to it.

That blitzwing legacy would be cool to have it oversized. If I see one I may get it. I’ll just keep it in bot mode.

I feel better about the tank cock-pit since it's accurate to the g1 toy. Sounds stupid but dang it does it give me some level of comfort...or coping....

[@revampedrenegotiate]

Are you gonna review studio series sideways?

[@ThatToyGuy]

Once it arrives yes. Gamestop just shipped it so I should be doing that soon

[@t.j.5842]

Mines legs where they clip together so do you have a fix

[@projectshininglight]

I'm homeless now but damn I wish I could have had that titans return version of bkitzwing...oh well

[@bestariel._.yuh029]

After all these years the vintage G1 still looks amazing! For $50 & it’s not even a leader class scale

The jet is a mig 25 foxbat

Honestly, if I get Legacy Blitzwing is for robot mode. I prefer the tank and jet mode from TR.
