He transforms from robot to vehicle (or vice-versa) with a single step that automatically swings everything into position. Unlike most prior 1-Step Changers, Blurr has a little extra articulation (aka "any articulation") with simple swivel shoulders. Naturally, he lacks the scannable roof insignia from the ''Robots in Disguise'' toy.

The name or term "Blurr" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Blurr (disambiguation).
Blurr is a Velocitronian Autobot from the Cyberverse continuity family.
I feel great! I feel great! I feel great! I feel bad. I don't even watch football! I don't even watch football! I can't remember my legs!

Blurr is the Autobots' high-speed intelligence agent. There one second and gone the next, this Velocitronian is fast enough to drive circles around any Decepticon. Of course, his mouth is every bit as fast as his wheels, making it nearly impossible for his teammates to catch what he's saying half the time.[1]

Fiction

Voice actor: JC Ernst (English), Mitsuo Iwata (Japanese), Matteo Zanotti (Italian)
Here goes the wood-davers train! It's takin' off! It's a new century!
At this point, the test subject was dead.

Blurr welcomed his old friend Bumblebee when he arrived on Velocitron for a visit, though he quickly sparked a rivalry with Bee's guest, Hot Rod. He encouraged them to try one of the tracks off the beaten path if they wanted the best racing experience, leading them to a massive and dangerous course. The three took off at high speed, but Blurr neglected to mention part of the track was being repaired, causing Hot Rod to wipe out. Their argument was interrupted by a crashing repair drone infected by the Plague of Rust, which began quickly spreading. Blurr quickly led them to his garage, believing it would keep them safe and refusing to leave his home. Unfortunately, a plague victim managed to breach the door, proving it less safe than expected. Finally relenting, Blurr led Bumblebee and Hot Rod to the space bridge as the planet continued to deteriorate, but they realized someone would have to stay behind to operate the bridge while the others escaped. Blurr volunteered, revealing he had unwittingly caught the plague himself and couldn't risk spreading it. As the others entered the portal, Blurr was consumed by rust and reduced to dust.
