Blurr

Here is everyones favorite fast talking Autobot. Voiced by the legendary Micro Machine man John Moschitta, Blurr was an interesting addition to the main line up in the third season of the original cartoon. His toy had a really interesting design, and was based on his animation models. His vehicle mode was that of a futuristic hover car. His color scheme was made up of primarily different shades of blue and grey. To transform him, you simply remove the front portion of the car (becomes a shield), flip out his legs, fold back the rear of the car, flip his head up, fold back the front side panels to form his arms, and presto! You have a unique figure. His legs were made of dye cast metal pieces, and the rest of his body was made of sturdy plastic. Although he did have a very slender robot mode, Blurr was a great addition to the Autobot forces in 1986. His figure would be rereleased in 1987 as a Target Master.
