TRDQ: Transformers Animated Blurr & Cheetor Review

Oh they're so fast! Oh my. OW!

[@Xpninjadan]

I want to see a third party company make masterpiece style figures based on the Animated character design.

[@Stomski]

Bumblebee aside, what figures need any sort of update?

​​@@Stomski A bigger lugnut, and a swindle who's arms aren't clear plastic wouldn't be bad either.

[@Cdr2002]

That would be awesome! Like sure Takara will do them EVENTUALLY but it’s going to be slow moving since MP hasn’t even produced the entire G1 season 1 cast, ditto for Beast Wars, nor have they done all of the 07 Decepticons, and Lio Convoy and Star Saber are practically islands as the only reps of their respective series

[@leftygurl]

cant get enough of the hollow wheels for the ankles. hollow wheels are cool, wheel ankles are cool, but putting them together? magic.

[@idkjordash]

I’m frightened by what unspeakable acts are committed in the TF Nation hot tub

[@tomjames9681]

Aaaaaand of course Gavin has the Cheetor version of Blurr. Never disappoints.

[@dogrobot9933]

This one of those Transformers figures that just perfectly defines the toy-line it came from.

[@greninji3593]

every time you mention the tfnation hot tub, i feel compelled to search it up and am immediately disappointed by seeing the exact same thing i saw last time i searched it up

[@Robotfan987]

Looking at that vehicle mode more than I ever have previously, they could make a Legacy Animated Blurr and retool it as a Mach Five crossover super easily.

[@Theover4000]

I'm really glad that I rewatched animated (thrice!) last year because of you, Gav. It makes me continue to wish that I had been collecting animated back when I was a kid. Still though, fun to experience them through you! Sidenote-- My sister's wedding was the only reason I never went to Botcon, the year they had the Stunticon-Job, I really wanted to go because it was in Austin, and it was a "short" trip for a Texan such as myself, but alas, 10 year old me was to never get my box set. For the better, in hindsight. Would've had the first destroyed Botcon 2011 set, probably before the con was even over.

[@Hooy-Jaymay]

Gavin just what is going on at that TFnation hottub.

[@Sp00kyBones]

I think it would have been so cool if we got a retool of this figure referencing Speed Racer.

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

Great video! Thank you! This is a great mould; I wish they'd te-release it. Maybe we'll get an update . . . .

[@zoltanperei4789]

My heart is bleeding because of the cancelled Transtech series.

[@threeerasers4873]

It sucks we never got that black and blue kinda Tron like repaint. That would have been a cool figure

[@twistederror]

Transtech did somewhat see the light of day but it is it's own separate universe it's a highly evolved Cybertron that essentially study the transformers multiverse and have a city where travelers from other Universes can possibly arrive whether on purpose or accident

[@originaluddite]

As a _hater_ of faux-parts I love what they did with Blurr's head crest.

[@euclid1068]

When you reach 100k subscribers could you film a review from the TFNation hot tub?

[@ae_double]

Someday you'll present something that's not my problem one of these days.

[@thefirstguyjaek255]

There is nobody funnier who reviews Transformers. Thanks, Gavin! Now lead us to that hot tub!

[@antesdequenacieranadiemeco4332]

how much for your botcon strika??? and where is my legacy dragon megatron and kingdom dinobot reviews?

[@WendythePuppet2023]

Animated blurrs alt mode reminds alot of the Mach 5 from Speed Racer

[@Psientologist]

My problem (not yours) is that I still don't own TFA Blurr and I should.

[@danielgaylor]

Prob my fav animated figure in terms of looks right next to Swindle. so nice

[@SkageXL5]

Loved thiis Blurr, So cool, he was in my Main character shelf for a long while!

[@sparkles122]

Great review. Have to say that blurr looks as though something should clip onto the back but they forgot to add it

[@MellowGaming]

I need more animated lads. Only have Leader Bulkhead. I should fix that. Blurr looks rad and I may have to keep an eye out for one. Wanna get a Hot Rod too.

[@michaellombardi1620]

This toy! Man! One of my faves of the line for sure!!!

[@greenisnotacreativecolour]

I really like that this version of Cheetor is based off the Beast Machines colour scheme rather than the Beast Wars one. The green and yellow look great together.

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodGeek99]

Always thought the animated blurr mold would make an awesome custom batmobile

[@RamblingCatastrophe]

If you turn the ‘shield’ sideways on his arm, it looks much more like a ‘shield’ without the quotations.

[@JackieKog]

As a Beast Wars fangirl I am super jealous of that Animated Cheetor, been looking for one for ages

[@mattr75]

I've owned Animated Blurr for many years, and it still holds up incredibly well

[@There_Is_No_War_In_Ba_Sing_Se]

Had this as a kid broke it the moment i tried to transform it.

[@KingshipKRP]

You might be wasted on all of us, Gav, but at least you’re not wasted! 250 eps and still feels as fresh as ever! Keep them coming! I might be a bit wasted this afternoon though. Pruno’s hitting hard.

[@Bearded_Bream]

As lukewarm as I am to Animated, the Blurr / Cheetor mold has always looked amazing to me, and I'm so bummed that I wasn't collecting back when they were available at a decent price.

[@incoherentbabbler4636]

do you know where to source new elite guard stickers? the one on my blurr's chest is real worn from play

[@Squiddlewheel]

Toyhax probably has some. They have a ton of replacement stickers on that website.

[@incoherentbabbler4636]

@@Squiddlewheel no dice - all I found was an old retired set for animated Optimus that included an elite guard sticker - nice trip down memory lane though

[@BenDaresAll]

0:26 aaaaaaah! That scene was pure trauma!!!

[@a_world_made_of_cardboard]

You are really showing the fantastic engineering of the Transformers Animated toyline in a way that makes me regret skipping out on the line for being so different from G1. Great review!

[@AlexReynard]

CAT CAR! CAT CAR! CAT CAR! CAT CAR!

[@emeraldphoenix5868]

Blurr had the best Design,I wonder how Legacy would tackle this.

[@SuperMookles]

Don't tempt fate

[@darkestcloister]

I'm worried Blur might have an eating disorder

[@michaelpytel3280]

Revving the The powerful MACH 5 as he guns the car around the track . Go Gavin! Go Gavin! Go !

[@noprobllama9747]

Quite honestly an amazing looking blurr figure. Works so well in robot and alt mode. Thank you for the showcase.

[@talljoke]

I appreciate you liking Animated Blurr. I appreciate you not liking the tradition of Blurr shields even more!

[@HereAlex]

I don’t know why but this is probably my FAVORITE mold of TFA, I just love my TFA Blurr Unfortunately one of his legs snapped so I REALLY hope he gets a straight up rerelease at some point and hopefully a Cheetor with a better head not to mention that Vortex Blurr repaint Hasbro gods I beg of you lol

[@robwilson4975]

Oh nooo, TRDQ’s back on a TFA kick, that’s not what I like at allll I appreciate you always signing off with a little dismissal to keep us riff-raff from getting too pally

[@kiemares2516]

idk why I read that thumbnail as "Blutor"

[@oliverrichardson4429]

I have this blurr! He’s so tantalysingly close to being complete, he’s just missing a heel on his leg. I keep him in his alt mode on the shelf!

[@CardboardBots]

What great looking bots.

[@CardboardBots]

And orange repaint was a bold choice. PINK would have also been bold.

[@jaykettavong4109]

Anyone else can’t unsee blurr car mode looks like the lighting mcqueen tongue scene 👅

[@pancakepower1006]

That cheetor looks amazing.

[@BonkProd]

I will never be able to look at this toy with the chainsaw out snd not hear the Yoshi Tongue sound effect

[@elpizo1789]

Both of them with the blade out in car mode look like they're having a contest on who has the longest tongue.

[@bradensmith8682]

That's a badass Blurr figure.

[@theuhohstory8995]

Imagine a legacy animated blur

[@NightmareZerogbs]

This is a fantastic piece of engineering.

[@mechanwhal6590]

I love Sensitive Material. Such a great character.

[@benjaminmcgovern188]

I love animated toys and the show

[@FREKKI]

Still my favorite Blurr of all time.

Agreed, they did my boy sooooo dirty in the show😭
