Via Chefatron on YouTube we have a new set of in-hand images the upcoming Transformers Legacy Deluxe IDW Blurr.
This figure seems to be a redeco and heavy retool of Studio Series 86 Blurr with a design inspired by the IDW comics incarnation of the Autobot speedster. Featuring a new head, several new parts on the shoulder and arms, and a mix of blue shades as deco this figure really shows its own personality. Alt mode shows two new front wheels which don’t really touch the floor or roll. We have comparison shots next to Studio Series 86 Blurr and Shattered Glass Blurr too for you to spot all the differences.
See all the images after the break and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Yeah, this figure is the only version of the mold I got, it looks much better than the SS version if not for this version I’d probably if I had to try the SG version.
Optimus1138
Yeah, they should've just left them off. He'd still look good with only the new blue parts, and I doubt anyone would be complaining about the lack of fake wheels that neither rotate nor come close to touching the ground. But at least with the way they're stylized, they don't look like they have to be wheels/tires. If I get him I'll just pretend they're exposed hover-coils or something.

It's my own fault for being disappointed about it, I didn't pay attention and assumed they would be working wheels.
It's still so superior to the other blurr, it tabs in so much better and looks amazing
Edit : my 6yr old daughter has decided he also has ice powers. Hot rod has fire powers. There you go.

Sucks but it’s not a big deal to me. Wonder if some 3p person/company will make the back turbine pieces
Dmharper80
Confirmed they should actually touch the groud
.
Dang it.

I hope someone makes new hand parts for him then, because that makes me sad. I got him today and was only disappointed by that.
Zentropy
I’m fairly certain in the comic they were actual wheels.
Dmharper80
Question, because it's a long time since I read the comic, but does he use wheels?
I was under the impression from the toy that those aren't wheels, but they are disc to help hover.
Or am I wrong and this is just dumb none functional wheels?
Crossbonesss
guess this relates to that one listing that a guy posted on here
idw blurr pre-order or something
IgnikaMarcus
That's because none of these have been officially announced.
Once they are, preorders will be up on Walmart and possibly Pulse.
Quippy
that's cuz the pre order is not open yet.
Magnus Ambus
I couldn’t find it on their website
AlphaCentauri
I believe this is a Walmart exclusive
Magnus Ambus
Is this up for pre order anywhere yet?
IgnikaMarcus
My SG Blurr will have a regular Blurr to go against.

I passed on the original too because I was planning on finding Legends TR Blurr (and Haywire) online, but with this version, I may just need to find Haywire then
IgnikaMarcus
Both SG Blurr and this guy blow the SS86 outta the water.
That's really a shame but also makes me glad I passed on the original.
Ektris
I feel real dumb for not realizing until now that they changed more than just the head lmao. All I noticed in the original tease picture we got but now vehicle mode comparisons make it so obvious… Kind moved up from skip to consider territory for me.
Optimus1138
Ooh, I didn't notice that the little bits on the sides of his shoulders were metallic blue. I'll have to add some paint but I think I'm sold on him now.
