Well if it is actually Bluestreak I might be a little.

Yeah, I can't see me getting multiples of a mold anymore, so if it's a decent Bluestreak I shall pick it up.

Nope. I have a G1 Reissue Prowl and Action Master Prowl. MP's being a bit larger take up more valuable space, and I was always fond of Bluestreak.

The only way they can trump it is by making a Blue one.

I've always been puzzled by something concerning Bluestreak. I always remember him being a metalicy dark blue color. I'm sure I do. Why is every toy of him grey and not blue? WHAT'S GOING ON?!

His name comes from him talking so much. "I talk a Blue Streak."

Oh yes I remember that from the comic. But I seem to remember pictures of him, possibly toy advert pictures, colored blue? Or have I dreamed it?! There's talk on other (far inferior) boards of folks wanting a blue Bluestreak.

Yes some promo art had him drawn Blue, indeed the covers of the Transformers exercise books had him in blue.

Well I'm glad I didn't imagine it! I must say, the blue Bluestreak holds far more nostalgia for me than the grey Bluestreak. Has there ever been a blue Bluestreak toy?

Was he sliver/grey in the comics? I know he wasn't in it much and the coloring was a bit off sometimes.

Yes that's the art I remember of him! That's why the blue on Bluestreak is so nostalgic for me.
Thanks Phil and Andy!

The last time I saw a Diaclone blue Bluestreak on eBay was about six years ago, and it went for about six hundred bucks. The only reason I can think of that Takara hasn't done one yet is that one of their executives has one and he's holding onto it until he retires so he can buy an actual Datsun Z80 with the money.
Do Japanese car dealerships take Paypal?

Bluestreak has a different crotch to Prowl! Different crotch! Different crotch!
