Notes

  • Windblade is the first "fan-built bot" ever - the result of various polls on Hasbro's official website to determine her character and physical traits. In addition to getting a toy, she'll also get a special IDW issue written for her. Perhaps appropriately, Windblade wound up with a number of somewhat stereotyped 'fan-character' traits, such as being a female who transforms into a jet and wields an elaborate sword. Amusingly, she sports Japanese motifs that weren't an option in the poll and seem to be the work of the design team, making her look even more like the usual stereotype. One could even make the argument that she's on par with Drift for being one of the most Japanese Transformers ever designed.
