But seriously, maybe it's not that bad, but there's no denying the decline of the Deluxe figure. Bumblebee is merely dainty. Soundwave is like a little origami crane. Wheeljack is pretty damn short. Cliffjumper is pathetic. I don't have high hopes for Knockout here.

Just for fun, I'd like to see a picture of him standing next to Generations Windcharger.

Peaugh's review shows that comparison. They're the same size in car mode, but Knockout's twice his size, if not more in robot mode.

Do you realize how tall Deluxe Starscream is? And watch Peaugh's review. This guy's actually taller than Cliffjumper and Bumblebee.
I should not have pointed out, not so much of the height as Im looking more of the daintyness of the figure. Just does not come across well to me as the character from the show. I would say almost every one of these figures SCREAMS "Im the guy from the show you know" Not this one...

Yea..yea...I know what your saying...but from what im seeing, it just really looks like one of the crappier ROTF scouts. The colors look pretty bland, and the chest and shoulders just dont give me that incredible look the character has in the show. Add to that the door arms, and the wheel bits...just looks like the cheapest looking Deluxe from the line. The arms look gawd awful, and make cliffjumpers arms looks great (which I have no problem with btw)

Kncok out is one of the coolest characters on that show for me. I love the "Salesmen" aspect, and I even get that vib from the show long before a bio for him. This, to me, is just a pretty poor mold in a line that has been VERY suprising.

15 minute job to fix your blitzwing arms so they lock in how they should from the factory.

Meh...I would not say he is twice the size, not at all. Scales nice with the other small figs is how I would put it.

Not too crazy about the paint job. Seems the two choices of red work against eachother rather than compliment. It kinda gives off as an unflattering G1 Deadend look. I do like the mold itself, shrimpy looking bot mode and all, and the vehicle mode is decent enough.

I will still Pick this guy up though to complete my deception ranks. I plan on keeping him sealed anyways.

The connection point sticking out makes him look cheap; his coloring looks like an older toy with sever sun-fading. Any easy pass.

even transformed correctly, this thing looks like garbage.

You can probably paint it up to look better, but that's still a strike against it.
