2001 was a year of head-to-toe repaints, with entire molds being presented as different characters. Occasionally, this makes sense, like with helmet or mask-wearing troop builders or ninja.
Double Blast is a repaint of 1984 Roadblock. To make Double Blast his own character I did a few things. Double Blast now has a full head of hair. Roadblock's mustache and goatee are gone, replaced with full face stubble. Double Blast has a smaller frame than Roadblock. But as a nod to Roadblock, Double Blast now has the vest of the 1986 Roadblock, instead of the tank top of the 1984 version. |

This is a cool way to visually differentiate between Roadblock and this clone...
FYI, I LOVE Whiteout because of his filecard.

If you love that filecard, then let me recommend The Political Orphanage podcast, hosted by Andrew Heaton. I suspect you're already aware of it? |
