- 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
- For each Energy Attack that hits Blaster while his Shield is up, he instantly Repairs 7~17% of Max Health. Additionally Blaster’s Shield allows him to shrug off the impact of Basic Energy Ranged Attacks and reduces a further 20% of incoming Energy Damage.
SPECIAL ATTACKS:
Special 1 – Amped
Turn up the volume, start the beats.
- Blaster gains up to 2 additional Amp Charge(s).

- 7% Chance for each Amp Charge on Blaster to Stun the opponent for 3 seconds.
Special 3 – Boom Boxers

SYNERGY BONUSES:
Mutual – Allies – Ultra Magnus, Arcee
+2~8% Armor.
Mutual – Enemies – Soundwave
+2~8% Attack.

1.5~10% Damage Reduction while Shielded.
Outgoing – Brain Drain – Shockwave
Shockwave generates 1~3 Energy Charges at the start of the fight and every 25 seconds.
Incoming – Brain Gain – Shockwave
25% Increase to Attack against Demolition Bots. Shockwave only gets this benefit if all bots on his team have this synergy.
STRONG MATCH-UPS:
- Galvatron – Galvatron greatly relies on his Ranged Damage, something Blaster is an expert at reducing.
- Soundwave – Blaster is able to Repair himself with his own Reflected Projectiles. Let the Rivalry Begin.
WEAK MATCH-UPS:
- Bumblebee GS – The little gold speedster will break through Blaster’s Shielding, inflicting Shock damage on him every time he blocks.
- Bludgeon – This tanky warrior does not use energy projectiles and will not allow Blaster to Repair when struck by his projectiles.
RECOMMENDED MODULES FOR BLASTER:
Laser Guidance Module
- 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.

It's not G1. G1 Blaster isn't a headmaster. Titan's Return ISN'T G1. It shares similar designs to G1, yes, but it is NOT the G1 designs.
Protostar
Yea but, TR Blaster is a toy of G1 Blaster tho
lordmegatron64
No. This Blaster is from Titan's Return.
primalxconvoy
No, it's TR Blaster.
Coffee
Love the Marvel inspired design. Love the use of the micro-cassettes. Fuck he\'s cool.
CorePrime
But it is?
mute
That transformation on the alt mode is quite humorous.

Thanks. Now I can't unsee that.
Majayrick
If I have learned anything from Hasbro's product shots in the past years
it's that they always find a way.
always.
lordmegatron64
That's not G1 Blaster. Please change the headline.
OriginalFire
When does he join the MP line
Elbastardo
How did they manage to mis-transform him?
LegoLover58
Part of me kinda wants him to waddle around in radio mode.
Robots78
Wow, his hip skirts are excited!
iuJacob
Yeah, they rely pretty heavily on the TR and CW stuff for their ‘G1’ characters, save for a few exceptions.
denebian
Interesting they chose to use the TR Blaster model, but transform him in a way the toy can't, completely ignoring the large speakers on his legs.
Nemesis Otaku
Nice. Now we can see who's got the better tunes.
King Glurch
Soundwave sound system superior. Blaster sound system inferior.
Purple Heart
Hey no way, two can play!
