    Default Unite Warriors Bruticus and Blast Off revealed

    Looks like we will get Space Shuttle Blast Off and 4-blade Vortex after all

    not overly surprising, like many have said, would have preferred if Vortex looked more like an actual attack chopper.

    Pre-ordered at PC. happy chappy.

    The 4 rotors on Vortex's back don't look nearly as good as I thought. Blast Off looks fine for a shuttle. I'll probably stick to Hasbro, since I have Swindle already.

    Yeah the Alpha Bravo mold is overstaying it's welcome. I really hope they fix up the colours on that guy too. It's one of the things that has been holding me off getting the CW release.


    The shuttle mode Blast-Off is better than I expected but (like Groove) is not groundbreaking stuff. Still intending to get a CW Blast-Off for the thematic sense of it all.

    It wouldn't be hard to do a shapeways/3rd party add-on to replace the front of Vortex's helicopter mode since it's literally just balljoints.

    I'm pretty happy with Takara's Version of Blast Off for this series. I like that they have at least attempted to make the arms part of the shuttle mode (booster rockets) and has a more accurate head

    I was ok with the choice of a fighter plane for the Hasbro version but could not for the life of me understand why they chose Slingshot's head Alpha Bravo's head would of been an much better choice IMO...it at least has a face plate...
