Due to demand

Not much is known about the enigma that is Bluestreak (ブルーストリーク Burūsutorīku). He looks like Bluestreak and operates alone in Asia, where he blends seamlessly into human society and is rarely seen in robot mode. He specializes in mid- to long-range combat and isn't daunted by the prospect of fighting multiple opponents at once.

Masterpiece

• Bluestreak (08-29-2015)
  • Japanese ID number: MP-18B
  • Accessories: Disperser Rifle, 2 Missile Launchers

Bluestreak is a redeco of MP-18 Streak, a retool of MP-17 Prowl, this time in Diaclone-accurate colors. He transforms into a licensed Nissan Fairlady 280Z-T. Varying from previous releases, Bluestreak uses Prowl's head and waist rather than Streak's, but uses Streak's car mode roof. Roughly as tall as a Voyager Class figure, he is also in scale with MP-10 Optimus Prime, and can fit inside Prime's trailer in vehicle mode. In contrast to previous larger entries in this line, Bluestreak lacks die-cast parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.

For accessories, he comes with his rifle, which can be held with his hands, or can mount onto a flip-out mounting point on his roof via the separate peg on its jointed handle. He also comes with a pair of built-in "Electro Bolt" shoulder cannons that can be deployed in robot mode. He also includes two non-firing missile launchers that clip onto his built-in shoulder cannons.

This mold was also redecoed and retooled into MP-19 Smokescreen.

Notes

• Bluestreak's name is less confusing with the knowledge that in Japan, Generation 1 Bluestreak is known simply as "Streak" (ストリーク Sutorīku). Here, the character's Hasbro name is used as, obviously, a direct reference to the figure's color.
