Unique Toys Buzzing - Blurr

I was never a big fan of Blurr's hovercraft alt mode in the cartoon, but it seems to be pretty faithfully represented here. There are a couple of mount points for the included rifle. Haywire doesn't fit in the cockpit. A display stand would have been a nice accessory to include.

Transformation from robot to vehicle starts off easy enough, but it's easy to get a little turned around when dealing with the legs. I also had a little trouble getting the thrusters on the arms to go into the undercarriage and the seats to tab together. I'm not sure what to do with the dark blue panels in the cockpit.

Buzzing really shines in robot mode. The face sculpt looks fantastic and features metallic painted eyes. There are three different shades of blue throughout, interspersed with yellow, white, and metallic silver. On mine, the cockpit window has some paint globs, some of the edges aren't well-defined, and there are tiny paint splashes in a few places. The blades behind his elbows are a little exaggerated, but don't get in the way of articulation. If you lower the knee caps, you can make use of a shin swivel.

His head is on a swivel and hinge. His shoulders are on ratcheted swivels that hinge. He also swivels at the waist, biceps, forearms, wrist, and upper thighs. His fingers are single pinned, but the pointing finger is independent of the lower three. He has double jointed elbows and knees that go well past 90 degrees. His hips are soft ratcheted universals that can hold the weight of the leg. He has ankle rockers and feet tilt, but the sculpt of the legs gets in the way of the rockers.

His accessories include Haywire, a rifle, and a transformation cog. Haywire doesn't make a convincing rifle on his own, but he can combine with the other rifle to make a longer rifle. The longer rifle isn't that great either. Whatever configuration, Buzzing holds the rifles very securely in either hand without the need for that silly Masterpiece-style tab. As a Nebulon, Haywire is pretty well-articulated, but his legs keep popping off. It's nowhere near as bad as Grax from Toyworld Swamper. The transformation cog has accents in translucent plastic and fits nicely in the palm of Buzzing's hand.

I'll be displaying Buzzing on my Masterpiece shelf because of his size, quality, and likeness to the character. SXS Overclocking already works very well on my CHUG shelf. The paint application could be better applied, but I love how he's not simply a solid block of blue. This is a great figure. We are so close to having a full cast of Masterpiece Autobots from The Movie. Fans Toys is almost done with the Dinobots. I believe KFC is working on the Junkions. We just need a Masterpiece style Arcee, Kup, and Springer. Ugh, Wheelie, too.
