Shattered Glass Blurr

Shattered Glass Blurr is still a speedy character, just like the normal version, and makes use of a very unique paint job.

Blurr’s alternate mode is an extremely areodynamic, streamlined car. Featuring a beautifully detailed paint job, Blurr is mainly gloss black, with silver used on his engines and the middle of his car hood. His windshield is cast in translucent orange plastic, along with his headlights and cyber key. Detailed over his entire form, is a pattern of electric blue lightning. These neon reminiscent colors contrast beautifully with the gloss black, providing a glowing, impressive look.

Blurr’s transformation pattern to robot mode is of a medium grade. In between the vehicle and robot modes lies a flight mode, enabling access to his weapons from a vehicle form. His cyber key in necessary to his transformation. His robot mode sadly lacks leg articulation, and features only limited arm movement. He does feature a unique new head sculpt, which is very similar to his original head, save for a damaged and patch over left optic. His right optic is red, and, located around the left optic, is red hydraulic fluid, which makes for a nice touch. His helmet is black, and a metallic silver is used for his face.

For his paint in robot mode, a deeper, rich blue appears. The lightning pattern is still visible on the outside of Blurr’s arms, and on the front of his wings. Featured on the center of his chest, is the purple Autobot symbol on a white background.

While Blurr does lack articulation, he more than makes up for it through his incredible paint job. Placed on a display case in vehicle mode, he is sure to attract attention, and Blurr makes an excellent addition to the other Shattered Glass figures.
