Yep, the guys who brought you Fall of Cybertron weapons for Optimus Prime and Megatron are also making an upgrade pack for Generations Blitzwing! This set will include a G1 style head that does not spin like Animated, as well a rifle and missiles for the jet mode!

 

 

Personally I like this, as I'm not fond of Blitzwing-E-Faces.

 

BTW - Remember when people were preaching from the highest soap box that the new Generations toys would lead to the end of third party Transformers? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! There is always room from improvement.

The changing face head doesn't bother me. I don't use the Animated heads. While the included rifle could be a little larger, it doesn't bother me either. The missiles could be useful, as there are already alternate places to put the sword and rifle in jet mode.

I kind of figured this would happen. I am surprised they didn't do a sword as well that was more G1 in style too. :shrug

This third party head is cool, but quite frankly, I like the spinning head that's already on it, mind you I don't even have it yet....lol. It adds a new twist on the character. So, if you don't like the other faces, just leave it on the G1 style. A little bit more bang for he buck!

Did SXS ever give a pricing projection or release estimate?

Oh the shoulder fix parts will make this sell pretty well....especially for those who don't want to modify theirs. How does that work anyways?

Nice. Did they ever announce a price?
