Title:
Blackout With Demolishor Powerlinx
Description:
Powerlinx Demolishor w/ Powerlinx Blackout (Super-Con, 2003)
Takara ID number: MD-10
Takara release date: September ??, 2003
Part of the final wave of Hasbro Armada Super-Cons, "Powerlinx” Demolishor and Blackout were redecoed into a primarily off-white color scheme with burgundy accents.
The Takara Legend of the Microns "Ironhide Super Mode” and "Spark Search” are once lightly tweaked to look more cartoony, in darker, more primary shades and in more matte paints and plastic.
According to Aaron Archer, this set was originally intended to be colored like Generation 1 Sixshot, because Demolishor’s gun-hands reminded him of Sixshot (we don’t get it either—maybe he meant Six-Gun?), but the red color scheme was decided upon and used in the animated series first, so the toy had to follow suit. Reflecting the late nature of this change, his packaging depicts a normal-colored Demolishor toy, as the colors had not been decided upon by the time cardback photography was required.
This toy was repurposed as Beast Wars: Uprising Black Out.
