The torso and upper legs are exquisitely designed. Detailed and aesthetically pleasing, these components approximate what the fan and collector community now expect from superior Transformer artwork. The chest compression that brings the figure’s upper torso into proportion with the rest of the body, keeping one mode from compromising the look of the other, is particularly impressive. The hood and trunk stick off the back and there is a bit of kibble from the mechanism; all in all the kibble project only about half an inch off the back.
The arms have a very classic Gen 1 feel, with doors off the shoulders. The seats fold onto the arms, and off of their backs a set of double barreled wrist guns can be pulled up. The lower legs are the disappointment in looks as well as function. The shins are formed out of the entire rear of the car. After the clever compression of the chest it’s sad to find the shins are as wide as the shoulders. The bulky shins feed into a scrawny ball joint ankle and a set of awkward toes made of backseat. The rest of the rear of the car has been oragamied into a ginormous calf and heel assembly. It holds up the figure, but let’s just say it’s not stylish. Not the worst legs ever, but juxtaposed to the rest of this impressive figure, they are a letdown.Head | Turns from side to side |
