It looks like the front of the car is missing. Is there a detachable "shield" piece or something not pictured?
...so, is that the Velocitron Blurr we're rumored to be getting?
Huh. Well, so much for it getting retooled into Pointblank.

Shame about those front wheels not even coming close to touching the ground, though.
That sure is IDW's "it's got wheels, it passes for a car".
(was going to post the pic but Sabrblade beat me by seconds. )
But I'm happy, I was never satisfied with the Generations Drift retool and never got the TR mold, so I'll finally have IDW Blurr.

This reetool, doesn't fix the obvious flaw, the holes on the arms at the front!
Jokes on you, Armada Blurr adopted the head style and colors in 2005!

Still weird they went with this Blurr given Studio Series is so plentiful and recent.
On a weird note, the new pics DID answer my quesiton on how Menasor's ankle joint avoids snapping the hood of the car-leg off at the clear plastic where the hood connects. It does it by having the hood of the car hover ABOVE the actual foot part. No load-bearing on the clear parts at all. On the other hand it does mean that the sole purpose of the car is to fill in the leg, but we knew that from seeing the frame of the body.
Oh, is IDW a version of Studio Series? Didn't even realize it.
...guess that dashes my hopes of Lost Light Rodimus, then.
They TRIED to release Blurr's Targetmaster a few times now, but things just went...well, you know...
You'll get it in 2024 in a retro box with a MINOR retool of Blurr and a $15 price premium
IDK, by 2024, it might be a $25 premium...You'll get it in 2024 in a retro box with a MINOR retool of Blurr and a $15 price premium
....I'll still have to pay it...
First look at Legacy Minerva?
I thought it was a custom at first then i realized elita is not even out yet....

Minerva images.
Robot mode looks nice enough - the slightly blockier proportions suit Minerva more I think. Despite the cheesecake art she is *supposed* to be a teenage girl, and the headsculpt is a lot better than the terrible one Elita received.
But dear lord, I assumed they were going to do something with that alt mode re-shelling wise. That looks absolutely terrible.
That actually looks pretty nice. I don't have any strong feelings for the character one way or the other, but the mold does look really good in those colors.
Wish they had done more remolding to further differentiate her from Elita-One, but she still looks good regardless.
