KFC Toys Ditka - Masterpiece Blitzwing - Preview

- Video preview with comparisons of a very early test-shot sample for KFC Toys E.A.V.I. Metal Phase 7:A Ditka, their take on an unofficial Masterpiece Blitzwing. This figure transforms from robot, to a tank, to a jet. While not complete nor final, this very early preview sample gives us an idea on how KFC's version of MP Blitzwing will look beside other Masterpiece Transformers. His robot mode looks like the G1 triplechanger, his jet mode looks like his G1 toy, and his tank mode looks very realistic. This version of the Decepticon character might be a good fit for your collection once the final retail release is polished, improved, and available for sale.

Tank mode is by far the most thought out and best mode for Ditka from this test shot
6 years later thank you for the help Chosen Prime
Awesome review, love to the comparisons, the tank mode ion this one is so much better than the competitors
Thanks for the review! Out of all the reissues of Blitzwing that I have seen, if I had the $$$$$ I would get the KFC Toys Ditka Masterpiece Blitzwing. It looks so much like the G1 version.
thanks for the review
I'm not gonna judge this thing too hard, being a test shot and an extremely early one at that. I can see some paint being in places where it's needed, like the face. I love how much he looks like the Toon model and the football is just great! Triple Takeover is one of my favorites in terms of G1 episode. The tank and jet modes are also really good. All in all, can't wait till this guy is out!
It wasn't covered in the video, but the triangular tan pieces right next to his robot mode head can fold down flat in robot mode, which cleans up the area around his shoulders.
Great review, can't wait for Fanstoys version to come out, to see which one I get. I definitely like the tank mode of Ditka better, but the plane mode is definitely better with the DX9 Gewalt (in my opinion).
tank mode looks very clean, and is very evocative of G1 Blitzwing, as is the jet. I don't know if anything can ever be done to hide the tank treads in jet mode.
Does it not have small side-tail-wings? They're often forgotten on the G1 toy, but they are there (they flip out from the tank tread section).
gewalt isn't a stylized take on a jet he's a MIG 25 ditka is the stylized one considering he's meant to be the same jet
The robot mode for Gewalt looks leaps better than the KFC version. Only mode KFC has DX9 beat on is the tank mode.
cool figure, but i think that purple needs to be lighted up a bit. just seems to dark. hope they change that for the final product. great review! thanks
Their both good figures, but I prefer the DX9 gewalt, b/c to me it's more cartoon accurate.I gues it's just a matter of preference.Nice review.😊👍
Gary sendaydiego not sure if we watched the same cartoon, but as far as g1 accuracy goes kfc wins in every category... especially bot mode. my only gripe is how dark the purple is on kfc. I prefer the color choices for dx9.
Gary sendaydiego Gewalt is modeled after the transformers game, devastation. Kfc ditka is more toon accurate in all modes.
Psyberian Tiger I wouldn't worry too much about the colors at this point. As stated in the video, this thing is a very early test shot, so a lot of things can change from this thing and the final, mass production version.
Face the Devastation then.
I don't regret buying Gewalt
DX9's jet mode looks like a MIG!
He really looks good beside Starscream. if TT supposed fan favorite character that is coming out this year isnt an official Blitzwing. I'll most likely pick this guy up
Dont he has extremly loose joints.
Every time you say "Ditka" all i hear is - "Daaaa Bears"
lets see what fanstoys does. Ditka misses the mark in Botmode. Surprised but I dont hate the jetmode with the downturned intakes. But the botmode at least at present looks pretty weak
Gewalt looks so much better and he is less finicky
Or not, aside from the tank mode DX9 takes the win...
Es de Kentucky Fried Chicken? :)
No offense, but I kept hearing "dicka", lolol gj, btw
Alex Da' Blitzwing
Dikta has loose joints consider it before purchasing.
A nice figure, but Gewalt is better looking.
Mann! This is tuff, I mean IMO Ditka is the superior figure over the DX9 Gewalt just because his more accurate to G1 and more in-line with the MP figures, but the DX9 Gewalt is the superior figure in Bot mode. I guess I'll have to get them both, really great review! And thank you for the comparison.
KFC has yet to make a figure I like.
DiggitySlice crash hog?
DiggitySlice ii
Well damn that sold me on DX9. Tank mode on Ditka might be more realistic but DX9's still looks fairly cool and both other DX9 modes are just WAY better in my opinion.
LUV the tank, LUV the plane... HATE the bot! that bot mack! still hoping to get him but would need to judge it on its final retail release. that bot mode can't stay like that! awesome that you compared dx9 and kfc. keep it up guys!
The sliding mechanism on the legs won't work, it's locked or something (can't transform it back to tank or jet). I tried removing the screws, but one won't come out at all. Any suggestions?
10:52, don't know if someone already pointed it out but those are smoke bomb launchers
I like my dx9 though tank is crazy and this looks class in tank mode however I prefer bot & plane on dx9 than this. but I'm interested in this too. FT also
Thank you for the detailed review.Close but not a Blitzwing which will offset what to me is DX9's best offering thus far. Bottom line to each their own but a step back from Wreck Gar and at the same time tackling a Triple changer is commendable / respectable from any manufacturer. They should have had a peg mechanism for Robot mode via wings...... Please for the love of Alpha Trion will somebody get us a proper MP Astrotrain. DX9 Astrotrain FAIL............Toyworld Astrotrain FAIL. We need yin & yang ....cookies and cream.....you get the request.
Fancy Cell's Transportation Captain is a great 3rd Party version of Astrotrain. Unlike the other versions, you do not have to fumble with the stupid train wheels being seen when in shuttle mode.
I want a mp alpha trion too
Why does this thing, make a tank and jet mode than Dx9 in so much fewer steps
Wich is the heavier?
At least it looks like blitzwing
Great tank mode, crap plane mode and okay bot mode. Where DX9's version has good bot mode, great plane mode and crap tank mode. What can you do though it's the curse of triple changers.
idstealer000 I don't really mind the plane mode. Hey, it's how he looked in the cartoon and the toy.
both of them looks to me like they are not finished... :| maby titans return will look cool
all this long wait for this crap?!! geezus
I’m leaning toward kfc
wait its partsforming?? nobody toldme that. PRefer Gewalt then :/
"What? You have to take parts off and put them back on? Pass!"
Who cares how you get from point A to point B? As long as you get there what does it matter?
I feel like this muthalicka is going to maybe outdo the fanstoys one a little bit... which is weird to try and accept!
Gewalt is the one for me
Gewalt
actually youre wrong gewalt is more animation acurate.
The only thing I dig more is his feet otherwise I prefer Gewalt
dx9 kick ditka ass forrrr soooo muchhhhh
Dx9 gewalt looks way better no competition
the purple face just ruins it!
cartertj04 Don't worry, mate. I'm sure that there will be some silver paint on there when the final comes out.
cartertj04 either that or they'll do a second run with a different coloured face
