Ebay seller minmeiiloveyou has put up a auction for a boxed Transformers Movie Blackout figure. This time we get all angles of the box and a glimpse of his Bio.
BLACKOUT is the largest of the DECEPTICONS. Most often seen looking silently over the right shoulder of Megatron. He is his leaders hound. He pursues any target he is given with relentless efficiency, allowing nothing to stop him on his task. Those who defy him beware his raage knows no bounds. He will fill the air with fire and burn the land clear to take his revenge. Paired with his minion SCORPONOK. He is a dangerous and deadly foe.

Colour scheme (including yellow around windows). Popout minion. Function and loyalty. Sounds like Soundwave to me.

Yep, I think you hit this one right on the nose! Glad they didn't make him Soundwave though. Hopefully they truly will "do him right" in one of the sequels. Like this toy though! So, if Blackout is the biggest Decepticon, then none of the city-formers or gestalts exist on Cybertron in this continuity?

Thanks, I was kind of wondering about this myself. I still need to watch that movie. -.-Megatron_Wolf wrote:Sonic wrote:"Birth of the Hybrid?"

Scorponok mini-figure doesn't transform, huh? I'm sure I've asked before, I'm just curious.
I'm looking forward to this one.

Perhaps they mean biggest one on Earth.

Nope he doesn't transform, but we know there's a Deluxe Sized Skorponok figure that does transform, so that should make u for it.
In any case, i'm not to fond of Helicopter TF's but this one has got me intrigued.
Although I think he should have been leader class.

He's gonna beat on ALL my CopterBots and hang out with Beast Wars Inferno...

His Bio sure sounds similar to G1 Soundwave, and I thought that Bonecrusher and Megatron both would have been bigger than Blackout, but they aint.

Could those in fact be the casualtuies to the airfield he transforms in in the early trailers, I hope?
I love this figure too.
