A few things to note; the wrists are unchanged from the first release, the blade does not store under the car and the figure does not appear to have the hook from the original. There are also some missing paint apps like the marking on his forehead and the front bumper of the alt mode.

The vehicle mode looks really plain with all that black and only a little bit of gold and the robot mode has lost the cool asymmetrical colors that Lockdown is known for. The chainsaw is pretty cool, but it sucks that it doesn't tuck away in any fashion. And I see that the hands weren't fixed after all. That last one is a big strike against it. |

Look at the Transmetals or vintage G1 toys - the chrome bits eventually get worn away or start to flake off on their own. Cheapo supposed-to-resemble-metal plastic is forever. |

Overall, a rather weak attempt by Hasbro at a redeco. Even the chainsaw can't save this figure for me.
Pass. |
