This one is still a total pass for me. Looks like something left over from Armada, so that's def not going into my Classics collection.

His car mode is great and the swords are good but his robot mode is very kibbley and too base heavy. I'll probably get him though.

Looks nice.
The design of the shoulders reminds me of the new Core Combiners figures.

The alt mode is awesome, his robot mode is ok, a lot going on there. I will get him but I honestly do not see how he is streamline enough for Blurr..
Too much kibble IMHO.

The figure looks excellent, I'll definitely pick this guy up. The accuracy to his artwork is quite astounding. Nice job HasTak toy engineers.
I will be interested to see if the kibble limits posability at all though, which I suspect it may in the shoulders.
There's a hinge at the handle, so it would seem that the one that appears bent is just not extended fully. Unless you mean the slight curve in the other blade which can be fixed in about 5 seconds with hot water.

I suppose the other good thing is that Drift has quite a tall head, so there should be plenty of room for Blurr's headcrest thing when he gets retooled.

His knives have hinges at the hilt to store in car mode.
You can see the pins in th picture with them at his feet.

Deluxe-class car mode = instant buy. If it'sa really good mold, I'll buy the repaints. The giant upper arms/shoulders worry me tho.

Cool figure, seems like a lot of kibble though. The alt mode paint and detailing is kind of lacking too. I want to Ryan's gallery before I make a decision.

It's good to have AHM dudes take the toy spotlight, but I am worried about back heaviness. Not primarily the shoulders but the back of the car being the back of the legs.

I hope there's some serious modifications for Blurr. A straight repaint wouldn't do the character justice.

Your joking wright? Better than Prowl's mold? I know that everyone has their opinions aren't you exaggerating a little bit. Has i said before this guy is very nice but better than Prowl's mold? Even Mirage is better than this one even whit the wheels on back of his head making him a little hunchback.

Heh. At first tons of people made the comparison of Drift to Blurr. And now there's a bunch saying "NO WAI HE DUSH NOT L00K A THIN LIEK BLURR!!!"
Me, I'm just happy he isn't a friggin Bugatti Veyron.
Of course it's probably just Drift hate. What with Blurr being a retooling of him and not the other way around.
Not that I would ever suggest that I like Drift better than Blurr. I am of course also disappointed that he didn't get his own mold. But then again, I'm just happy I'm getting a classics Blurr, period.
As for him looking like a leftover Armada toy... Pfffft ahha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!
Ok yeah he does have some hip and shoulder kibble. But we've already seen that most of it will not hinder his poseability whatsoever.
Plus. Do you see any gimmicks? Because I don't.
*Edited for justice of retooled head n guns!

Definitely better than the universe prowl mold. Sure prowl mighta had heel articulation and looked almost exactly like he does on the show, but for now, Drift looks more solid, more interesting, and he's got swords, perfect for taking on fansproject blastoff. for 15 bucks, Yea, all of you who don't really like him, don't get him, increase my chances 
Who really cares about Blurr, baby blue, crack addict, can't even manipulate a dumb version of grimlock into a ship... He died a long time ago when the autobots just used him as a loud distraction

This mold was mediocre to me at first, but I'm definitely coming around. I am really glad Drift is getting a figure, and I'm sure I will be buying him on sight.
Still not sure how I feel about a Blurr repaint. I refuse to pass judgement until I see it.

REALLY leaning towards buying this, but the all-white color scheme is really going to ruin it if it yellows. Repainting it might not be an option due to the intricate red Japanese wording tampo's (?) on the doors.
BTW, I love the swords.

From the beginning I never made this comparison..
I still say that there is too much going on to really make an accurate Blurr (classic Blurr is streamline and sleek with not much kibble).

I like the alt mode. At a glance, the bot mode looks ridden with kibble at the shoulders and lower legs but it seems fairly accurate to the comic book artwork.

Bought on sight. Still, like someone said, a yellowing issue could pose a problem. I'll probably just stick in him an area of my collection that doesn't get much light (same place I keep my G1 Jetfire and other notoriously yellow prone bots). I can't really see him as Blurr, but I like the overall design of the bot so much that I'll probably get both, especially if they remold the head. I just love bots with swords and this guy has THREE!

I love this guy. I think he is spot on. Kinda skeptical about the Blurr, but i'm sure with a new retooling, ah la new head mold and weaponry, it will look good. It would be cool if they could tweak the transformation a little too. Anyway, Drift and his long sword are full of win.

Ya know, the more I think about this retool into Blurr I don't like it. Sure a new head is cool, but did he really have any memorable weapons other then a targetmaster? I also can't see them making a new one or adding in a place for it to mount in vehicle mode.
Do be honest, he'd make a better repaint into Marvel Crossover Deadpool.
