Thanks to friend site and sponsor Dorkside Toys we can share new stock images of Transformers Studio Series SS-65 Voyager Blitzwing for your viewing pleasure.
We have a clear look at the robot mode revealing a very nice and detailed figure. We just noticed the head is white and not black as we may have expected for movie accuracy. Talking about this topic, jet mode is not very close to what we saw in the film, maybe due to a license issue. Anyway, we are sure many fans are looking forward to add Blitzwing for their Studio Series collection.
Check all the mirrored images on this news post and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

This is a nice figure. HasTak should re-release this mold in the three Seeker colors. Or in the color scheme of Powermaster Dreadwind and Darkwing.

I'm excited for this too. I picked up Blitzwing a little while back and the bot mode is rad but I returned it after a couple of days because the alt mode was just too egregious. But the Cybertronian jet will most likely look a lot better and I can pick one up and actually be into both modes instead of just one

I might but for now it has no issues in transforming and is easy to tell which way it should go without feeling like it will break. Besides, I don't have anything on hand easy to shave the excess off at the moment

It’s probably just a tiny bit of mould flash inside that’s acting as a latch. It should spin both ways, I actually have mine in alt mode right in front of me and it spins both ways fine.
You could always open it up to make sure, it’s only three screws and no glue.
Man I can’t wait to see Blitzwing retooled into Cybertronian Starscream. The robot mode is too good to only use once.

Mines only goes in one direction and I am scared to force it, mainly from the standstill it moves one way. When midmove it moves both ways, but from robot to vehicle and back it only goes in one direction to move
John TheDestroyer
The one for transformation? I'm pretty sure it can turn either direction
Jmaster99
Okay, I have a question to ask anyone here, but the cockpit/head section is meant to turn in one direction only right?

I finally got my Blitzscream! Can't wait to compare him to my other big seeker boys. X3 He can probably pal around with my Seige Starscream and Netflix Hotlink. They don't have a third. And hey, he comes with a cool background thingy …which'll probably last me about a week or so.

And pretty sure I am going to pick this up. I hope they do some repaints with Movie styled heads but more a G1 feel for Thrust, Skywarp, and even Starscream on this mold

I\'m selling my copy of Blitzwing, so if anyone wants him, please send me a private message. He\'s still in MISB condition.

Managed to nab the last Topspin at my local Walmart. Man… I was hoping for more. He's not as bad as Roadbuster, but the abundance of soft grey plastic really dampers what would otherwise be… a rather mediocre figure, honestly.
Think I'll keep Leadfoot, he's rather good, but Roadbuster and Topspin are hitting the BST boards when I can be assed to make a new sales thread.
Blitzwing still looks good, though. Definitely keeping an eye out for him.

In regards to the soft bendy weapons…..what's the reason why this new release has those, but the original deluxe was able to have chunky solid ones?

Just saw a wave 10 voyager case at a local Walmart. Still haven’t seen one at Meijer yet. The Targets here appear to be sold out of Blitzwing.

Saw this guy on my grocery run at Target today. Feels early? I dunno, anyways it is awesome and has a ton of presence.

A simple google search should give you details. It depends on the country.
Venixion
What stores will he be in?

Oh yeah! Easy cop for me! 3 things that bug me though
1. Bendy plastic for all weapons scares me
2. Was hoping for a little bit of yellow on the chest
3. Arms look a teeny bit long when they are just straight down.
