Toy Review - Titans Return Blurr with Hyperfire

[Dimi194]

Really nice mould, in both robot and vehicle (wasn't too keen on the hovercar thing but he does it very well!)

Good to pose... I can see why people don't like all the blue (esp with Scourge in this wave too) but to me it's not a big issue, he's just a very blue figure :P

Stands out I suppose...

Otherwise very nice, comes recommended.

This mold must've been designed by Shogo Hasui. He's sleek looking in both modes, and the simple yet very effective engineering, abundance of articulation where it could fit, and that amazing, amazing head sculpt, all give that pleasant Hasui vibe.

The Legends version is miles better in terms of deco, but I don't actually don't mind the Hasblow blue but each to their own.

Oh the "floating" effect in alt mode is quite nice too.

When I look at the blue on this figure I also have qualms. Blurr would like better in an aqua/marine environment as a submarine with that predominant color scheme.

Ok so now I have both versions of Blurr (one with a different head)



Takara's LG release is my definitive Blurr, but I really do like the colour/tone of the Hasbro release, something about that slightly metallic teal like colour...

So I stuck a new head on it, and called it a "new" character. TR line is going to be great for this stuff.

I got the TakTom version too, the colours really bring this guy to life, and the Mold is not bad either, above (current) average articulation for a deluxe and his hollowness is disguised well.

Overall I'd say legends Blur is my second favourite TR release so far.

Where is the cheapest place at the moment to get the TakTom version?

[Doubledealer]

I double-dipped and bought both the Hasbro and Takara Blurr (Hasbro version in-hand, waiting on the Takara one to arrive). Looking at the Hasbro one, I just don't get the thought process when it came to colouring TR Blurr. Generally speaking, when it comes to the new Headmaster toys you go Takara for cartoon likeness, Hasbro for toy likeness and yet, TR Blurr doesn't seem to do either? Closest match would be the representation of Blurr on his G1 toy box so perhaps that's what they were referencing. Poor choice of colours aside, this mold must have been an absolute labour of love for whoever designed it...It is just about perfect.
