It gels uniquely well with the overall rounded body. Here you go with the red eyed, yellow mustached and neck-less robot mode! I particular like the yellow mustached head piece of him. All are actually fold-able to either sides in order for the transformation.

There are 6 blades for the main rotor of the helicopter. Quite nicely concealed as a part of the alternate mode. Speaking of it, the rotor itself is the primary weapon (“the disc” launcher) for the robot mode. You can see the large tail rotor (which is like a ducted fan designed) there which actually you can turn the rotor inside. Anyhow, you will also get to see gold metallic color painted on the side Gatling guns as well. That’s the only part of the entire alternate mode being painted in silver metallic color. The Decepticon insignia is imprinted clearly in purple color with silver metallic painted background. and i wonder what’s that for? I am pretty sure that’s not a weapon or some sort but it does make a funny impression of a mole. You can only turn or twist them which is for the purpose of transformation only.Ī point to ponder here though, there’s a BIG yellow mole in front of the helicopter…. However, those weapons are not detachable. The built quality for this Blackout is very solid (and heavy too!) indeed and no abruptly loosen joint as well (though the joints are soft and easily to be turned) which adds to the value of it being a Takara Tomy. By count, he has 3 pairs of Gatling guns and a pairs of 2 missiles launcher which is enough to crush any Autobot (or human being) on sight. I think he is one of the most heavily equipped animated Decepticon as compared to others. But don’t let the cuteness of the alternate mode deceives you as he is heavily equipped with missiles and Gatling guns here and there. The alternate mode for Black out is a round and cute helicopter. Well, no regret in getting the Takara Tomy version as i really like the design for this robot.Īlternate mode: Unknown Cartoon Helicopter Anyhow, Takara Tomy is guaranteed with better repainting and QC (normally). I never seen a Hasbro version selling in Malaysia before. I got this voyager Blackout in Takara Tomy version. And of course, being an Animated, you will definitely see the cute, streamlined and simple design of him instead of the normal or realistic helicopter. For what i am going to share today is not the Blackout from the movie, but is from my favorite Transformers toyline – the Transformer Animated! The animated version of Blackout also has an alternate mode of a helicopter. Either, you might remember the big bad helicopter Decepticon that appears in the first Transformers movie. Well, that’s Blackout. Blackout, a name you might be familiar or might not.
