Blog #2259: Toy Review: Transformers: Legacy Leader Class Blitzwing

Transformers: Legacy Leader Class Blitzwing

Blitzwing

Tank Mode: Blitzwing’s tank mode is awesome. They did a fantastic job on him. The two first accessories, that I’ll talk more about later, look great as missile pods.

Jet Mode: Blitzwing’s jet mode is garbage. It looks great if you ignore the chunks of tank hanging off the bottom, but that is impossible.

Robot Mode: Blitzing looks great in robot mode. He has two guns and a sword. The extra large fists are stupid and serve no purpose. They are part of Legacy’s weapon gimmick that I still don’t understand. Some toys have them, some don’t, it’s completely stupid. However, at least they did give him his correct weapons. It’s a pity Legacy Skywarp did not receive the same treatment.

Overall: Two out of three of Blitzwing’s modes are awesome, the other one is ass. If those extra parts hanging off the jet were detachable he would be a much better toy. God forbid they make him a partsformer that would be a better toy. I have to recommend him, but that jet mode hurts.

Thanks for reading!
