New Age H4 Murphy

The rapid-fire releases continue with Murphy, aka G1 Bluestreak in animation colors.

The Box

The box is a G1 tribute in the same vein as Max.

Inside the box you get instructions, a rifle and two redesigned shoulder cannon.

The Robot

The anime colors look great on this mold and the red parts really pop.

The Datsun

Not surprisingly, the vehicle mode is just as impressive as the other Datsuns.

The wheels are dark grey rather than black.

The Name

As originally speculated by Scurv on the TFW2005 boards, the name comes from Robocop (1987). This thought was most succinctly put by zeroblue2099 on TFW2005, “Alex Murphy starts the movie as a cop (Prowl) and is rebuilt into a black and silver cyborg”.

The Conclusion

This will be the primary Bluestreak for my display as far as robot mode goes.
