the gun actually fires from approximately the 9 o clock position from the rotating barrel so the recoil is down the center line of the aircraft but the gun itself is not.
I guess this just tends to get exaggerated in toys.

Adding to some others feedback above, I think always using a comparison figure from the same line (as well as the others too!) is handy. Keep churning out the plastic crack vids   | |

All in all, definitely not what I was expecting. The transformation for the most part is quite a bit better than I expected, but the cockpit canopy hanging down is unforgivable.
Actually makes me glad I'm not buying Universe this time. It's a shame, he at least looked cool. (keyword: looked) | |

But I don't really like it. Robot mode looks like..one of those old Punch Out characters. (big top, little bottom) | |
