not necessarily,
some of the figs are short but the alt modes are larger ala lugnut.Same with the leaders,megs and bulkhead have large alt modes to make up for being shorter.

No, the groove on his arm has little divots at the bottom, and the cannon piece has little tabs that snap into the divots. Like so:





It locks on quite securely. You can pick him up by his cannon and even wiggle him around fairly vigorously without the cannon detaching:





Something weird I just found, He has a landing gear in front without the cannon assembly attached:




Not sure what's for, since leaving the assembly detached exposes his robot head and looks bad. Even if the cannon itself could detach from the grey part, the grey panel prevents the landing gear from being folded down. Weird.

maybe they intended to have a slot on the grey piece to let the gear fold down, bu dropped it? though it looks like even if the gear and the canon could be deployed at the same time, the gear wouldn't clear the canon. another animated toy engineering mystery, along with bulkheads right arm gimmick of pointless i guess.

Maybe it's like Energon Omega Supreme. If you lose his HMaster a little divot pops up for a tiny head, but a head nonetheless. Here if you lose his cannon he at least isn't tipped forward and has a landing gear.

Wow! Animated design in all its glory. I love the robot mode: very imposing and a lot of personality. The vehicle mode has a nice and swift design too but looks a litlle bland overall. Nice review, many thanks for all the pictures and video review. I want this figure NOW!

And I was knowing that Lockdown was tall...but not THAT tall!

Wow, awesome figure. I'm really interested in getting one early. If anyone knows where I can get one (I checked eBay), I'd appreciate it if someone could let me know.
