So I made a road trip down south with my wife and daughter in tow, on the hunt for Animated. I think I hit up two or three Walmarts, a Target and a TRU and by the end of it, I had found and bought every one through Wave 3 of deluxe and voyagers. Then I spent the next few days rationing out my haul by only opening a few at a time.

To this day, it's still one of my favorite toy lines ever.

oh animated... how i miss that toy line. it ended far too soon.

even with some limited articulation, animated blurr is still one of my absolute favorite figures. i love the blue, i love the vehicle mode (one of my favorite vehicle modes), and i love the long slender practically kibble-less robot mode. oh, and it's also super accurate to the show, and those wheels are just awesome looking.
