- Blue Maximus was to be a Decepticon from the 2010 Transformers line.
Blue Maximus is kind of outdated. If he had existed, he probably wouldn't have liked Crosshairs.
Toys
Transformers (2010)
- Blue Maximus vs Crosshairs (Multi-pack)
- A redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Ransack, Blue Maximus transforms into a German Albatros D.III biplane. He has a non-firing weapon on each arm and a "Battle Mode" in which his wings are deployed in robot mode, presumably for flight.
- This sculpt was also used to make Revenge of the Fallen Divebomb.
- Blue Maximus would have been available in a two-pack with Crosshairs, a Revenge of the Fallen Rollbar redeco, but for a long time, the only information on this set came from a set of instructions[1] on Hasbro's website. Like all Transformers instructions, they're in black and white, making it impossible to tell how Blue Maximus was to be colored. His alternate mode's deco was eventually revealed when Makoto Ono posted his 3D renders for various toys from the 2010 Transformers toy line that were (or were intended to be) used as those toys' package art on TFW2005.[2]
 Proceed on your way to oblivion. |
Notes
- Blue Maximus is named after The Blue Max, a 1966 film about a German fighter pilot during World War I.
