War for Cybertron: Siege

• Autobot Greenlight & Dazzlestrike (Multi-pack, 2019)
  • ID number: WFC-S15
  • Accessories: Slashing "Fire Blast" effect

Siege Dazzlestrike is a repaint of the single-packed Battle Master Lionizer, using the same plastics but having green paint on the blade, as well as a number of other small applications and color changes. Dazzlestrike transforms from robotic lion with a back-mounted blaster cannon into the "Shadowsteel Iceblade". The cannon can also fold down and act as a much bigger tail. As a part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. System, its weapon mode can be attached to any toy with a 5 mm post-hole. Thanks to the handle being on a swivel-joint, its weapon mode can also be mounted perpendicularly, such as on a robot's forearm or on the side/top of a vehicle mode, without sticking straight out and looking ridiculous. Thanks to the C.O.M.B.A.T. System, the back of the blade has a 3 mm post where the "Fire Blast" piece would attach.

The figure includes a new "Fire Blast" effect piece to simulate a fiery slashing attack (odd for an "Iceblade" (better off swapping effects with Lionizer)), clipping onto the back side of the blade or the handle in beast mode, simulating a pounce effect. Dazzlestrike is packaged with Greenlight.

This set was only available via Amazon Prime in the United States and Canada, but was released at general retail in Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Notes

• The figure's name is spelled "Dazlestrike" with one "z" on the front of the packaging, whereas on the back and in the instructions, it's spelled "Dazzlestrike" with a double "z". We're operating under the assumption that the spelling that makes more sense is the correct one, and the other one is a typo. (The official product descriptions on Amazon US and Amazon Canada also spell it with a double "z".)
• Dazzlestrike's box-art is recycled from Lionizer's.
