"BLAST THAT...(Yawns even harder)"
  • Blastwave (Warrior Class, 2016)
  • Accessories: Double-barreled blaster, sword
Part of the ninth wave of the Robots in Disguise Warrior Class line (now sporting the "Combiner Force" subline logo), Blastwave is a heavy retooling of Warrior Class Megatronus, with pretty much all of the figure from the waist up being redesigned, plus new kneepads. He transforms from a robot to a double-barreled tank of fictional origin. The cannon barrels in tank mode are articulated, and can be removed from the figure's back to be used as a hand-held weapon. Blastwave also has a peg hole on the back of his head meant to "store" the sword in tank mode; but it can also be used in conjunction with the cannons to allow for him to be displayed in a more offense-focused configuration.
This mold was also used to make Bludgeon.

Notes

[edit]
"Wait... where's my shoul— (yawns the biggest yawn of all)."
  • Despite being a fairly extensive retool affecting nearly every area of the toy, Blastwave's card art (pictured right) and on-screen character model are blatantly an unchanged yet recolored Megatronus body with only a new head and chest.
