Split the front windows of the helicopter apart then rotate them forward and down.Swing up the panels on the underside of the vehicle behind the nose.Detach the rotors and fold of the blades on the halves together before separating them from each other.It works great, which is cool given this is the fourth use of this tooling. Press the translucent blue button on the left side of the vehicle and the rotors spin. Overall the deco looks fantastic and I really love the callback to Fly-Up.īlades has a gimmick that spins his rotors. This includes white Autobot symbols on the tail section and a really ornate Autobot symbol with two lines behind it resembling "wings" on some emblems and medals. Some additional embellishments have been added to the deco that don't appear on Fly-Up. These details are based on stickers located on the sides of the figure. On the engine section under the rotors are silver details painted on both sides. There is also a blue stripe painted from the front to the sides which echoes the blue front end of Fly-Up's vehicle form.
In particular the white and blue sections are directly influenced from Fly-Up. This color layout matches up quite a bit with Fly-Up. The rotors are black and the windows are translucent blue. Most of the front to the middle is white. More relevant to this set, Fly-Up was a redeco of G1 Blades, so this was a natural redeco.īlades is cast in white, black, blue and translucent blue plastic. Fly-Up was a member of the "Guard City" team, a group from the latter days of "Generation One" who appeared in the print-only "Operation Combination" story. The name may not be familiar to many fans. Blades' deco is actually based on a character named "Fly-Up". However, for this release the designers decided to go deep into "Transformers" G1 lore. It would've been easy for Hasbro to just take the Blazemaster figure and paint it red and white and call it a day as a homage to G1 Blades. This review will focus on the changes made to the figure for this release. Check out those earlier reviews for details on this sculpt. It's a very unusual design (which I note in the previous reviews) and I liked it in an odd way. The same sculpt was later used for "Revenge of the Fallen" Evac and then Tailwhip (a Decepticon). Protectobots Blades is a direct redeco of "Revenge of the Fallen" Blazemaster. Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.
Your Blades figure converts from robot to helicopter mode, while your Hot Spot figure converts fast from robot to fire truck mode! Your rescue adventures will never be the same once you have the Evac Squad Pack. Roll to the Transformers rescue with the Evac Squad pack! These Protectobot Blades and Hot Spot figures are ready to handle whatever threatens innocent bystanders.
The way you'd hear them tell it, even saving a cat stuck in a tree qualifies as a high-wire mission on the edge of danger. Their knack for dramatic rescues is rivaled only by their knack for dramatic storytelling. Sure, they might showboat after they do it, but since they're working in the most extreme conditions with no margin for error, you can't really blame them. Need a daredevil rescue? The Protectobots Evac Squad can get it done. *Images above with asterisks and text below in italics are from : "Platinum Edition" Year of the Snake Optimus Prime.Protectobots Evac Squad with Blades & Hot Spot.
