This is just my opinion, but this is the best "Tank Mold" ever released.

Here's what I like:

Rubber Treads, Awesome!
He's a Samurai
WITH "2" Swords!
The Turret does not come/fall off, like some tank molds do

Excellent design mechanics, the cool face, the simulated bones, it will blend with Universe/Classics or Movie lines!
Perfect Class/Size, Voyager.
Excellent choice of orange color scheme.
It's not an exclusive, so the price won't be $25 or $30 and more people will be able to find one.

How could any TransFan so no???

Tell me, HOW??? What's not to like???

Aside from the rubber bits, it looks great. If they'd made the swords green instead of grey it would've done a lot to help the integration. In tank mode it looks a little weird with half the barrel in grey.

Definitely buying this as soon as I can.

Best tank mode? Movie Leader Brawl would have a bone to pick with that.

Still, it's very awsome in both modes. After reading some of the comics, I wanted a Bludeon ... but I never really liked how G1 Bludeon looked like. This happily solves the problem!

I've been loving this figure since the first photo's of the slideshow popped up and yes I am getting this figure. Now all we need is a Thunderwing and our Marvel Pretender epicness will be complete!

Strange, I was thinking 'All we need is a Mindwipe, Bugly and The Fallen'... :mrgreen:

We're getting Mindwipe (sorta) and we've had enough of the Fallen this year, thank you! Still, gotta represent what you love and Dreamwave doesn't get enough.

I really like what we have seen of Mindwipe so far (I have relatively little love for the G1 mould, it looks like Soundblaster in alt mode, dressed up for Halloween with some pink paint and brown bat bits), I just hope that either A) Hasbro made him a headmaster, or B) a 3rd party company pops one out for him. After all, in the Japanese continuity Mindwipe would be a empty Transtector without the head!

I know what you mean about 2009 Fallen overload... ...however after seeing this review and those pics, I am sure that Hastak could make a pretty wicked Classics/Universe 'The Fallen' by repainting Bludgeon black with bits of gunmetal and dark purple (I am sure he had flecks of purple on him) some nice flame apps, and most importantly a different Head, chestplate and talberd/crotch cover thing, which could be all shoved into a single sprue, like they did with the 'conehead' parts to alter the Classics Starscream mould. Hell, I suppose with Mindwipe coming out, they could attach those parts to the black sprue there and just set them aside as they are taken off for sorting in the factory, ready for a later retool job. Hopeless optimism on my part I am sure.

Edit: One thought. Hasbro LOVES repaints, they are easy money. Bludgeon's distinct features does not lend him to repainting very easily. 'Stealth Bludgeon' 'Jungle Attack Bludgeon'? I hope not. I wonder if Hasbro thought of this in the design stage. We may yet see a Galvatron retool.

Saw this yesterday. It looks amazing.
I mean, he has a lot of kibble, but it's arranged in such a way that it looks awesome.
Will buy on sight!!

Titanium Fallen is actually pretty good. I won't go as far as to say that it's perfect, but it's probably the best Titanium mold I have all ways 'round.

If we ever get a new version of the Fallen, I'd rather he be a new mold. Preferrably one closer to how he actually looked like in the comics rather than just any other random thing. It's like if Bludgeon was a repainted / slightly resculpted Cybertron Unicron. It'd certainly like it enough to buy, but this just blows that easy idea out of the water.

Glad to see it got posted over here.

Also, for the record, since I saw it posted in this thread, the Peaugh on PSN playing Revenge of the Fallen is NOT me. I haven't even played the game yet.

Yeah, good review! Bludgeons a must buy. How much did it set you back?

Or your customs, damn I want to know how far you are with your Devastator!

Guess I'm the only not liking this figure. Never really was a fan of the character in the comics, so not really looking forward to this.

Whoops, sorry Peaugh, my mistake. #-o

There would be another player with a name like yours. Well, it's a great game with awesome online multiplayer, I highly recommend it.

Nice review! it was the last thing i needed for determining if i would buy the figure as soon as I see it in stores, or waiting a while. It's cool how bludgeon has a slot to place his katana in robot mode, and his skeletal sections in his hands and legs.
