You may test that assumption at your convinience.

They need to do ALL the cassette bots in that style. I don't even care if they never make transformer they can fit into like soundwave or blaster. I want the cassette bots, as many as I can have.

Related note: my pile of loot is like 12 days from shipping out and the ENTIRE TIME has been spent waiting on ******* rumble and frenzy to ******* drop. WTH is going on with BBTS?

I'd like to have it, but I'm skeptical I'll ever manage to get it.

Wanted a Blaster ever since I was a kid, but he always manages to elude me...

I just wish Steeljaw got the love that Ravage does.

Wondering about the possibility of Hasbro eventually getting around to Core class versions of Rewind and Eject since they're starting with Steeljaw. I still don't think those are that good a value, but it sure beats having to buy Eject and his Blaster accessory.

Pass from me. Not enough to double dip. Plus a TRU Exclusive up here which is awful even if I did have one near me.

Half of the stuff I preorder on BBTS ends up in stores before the order comes in. Or the preorder is delayed for months (I have one Gundam kit that was supposed to be in last August and still hasn't shown up) and inevitably shows up about a week after I ship the previous POL. There is very little in between.

I mean, this Blaster looks great, so if someone missed the first go, this is definitely a great way to fix that.

I didn't, however, and i'm okay with my clear eject. I *AM* definitely on team more casettes, though. Its the main reason Soundwave and Blaster exist, and right now Blaster is out numbered. Gotta fix that.

Yup, I already have both Billy Blaster and Blaster Twincast, I don't need to get a second Blaster to get a cassette guy I already have but in non-clear plastic this time lol

I never use POL, but I am still waiting for my Frenzy to ship this month.

A solid blue tape guy is kind of a draw but damn the chest door is tacky. Even a solid allspark blue window would be preferable to having a fake cassette drawn onto it.

And Blaster didn't even have cassette minions originally. His toy's cassette door was even sealed shut during its original 1985 release before the gimmick was restored for his second release in 1986.

Yes it was like that on the cartoon but it’s clearly meant to represent the sticker on the toy meant to look like a cassette. It’s dumb but I get it, Blaster has to take any differences from Kingdom he can because there barely are any.

This is absolutely not true about the US release. I had the original 85 Blaster right when it came out. Door spring loaded popped open when you pushed his buttons fine right from the start. It's called out in his instructions that he holds the cassettes even before there were Autobot ones.

-ZacWilliam, never ever heard anyone even claim this before.

Edit: A glance at TF wiki confirms that Blaster had working springloaded buttons and opening chest right from the start, though there was an assembly error that happened sometimes that caused some of them to jam up and not work internally but that was a defect and not intentional.
