It basically has to bend at Silverbolt's robot mode elbows.

 

THis!!! And i like the kibble or jet fuselage facing the front anyway. Acts like knee pad armor for Superion.

 

I just wish they would of been single pack as I only wanted 2 maybe 3 of the Aerialbots, Air Raid, Fireflight and on the fence on Sky Dive.

 

What PlanckEpoch said. I got the repro labels and this positioning helps me feels better about my purchase.  

 

I'm pretty happy with this so far. Still haven't combined yet, but they look so good as a team in robot mode. I'm buying mostly Decepticons, but the aerialbots were always my favorite autobot combiner and it appeared that Takara was gonna do it right and they did, albeit a couple loose balljoints and a few paint app scratches. Didn't really care for the inside box and tray. but the front of the box's graphics look nice

Edit: Got him in combined mode. Looks pretty damn amazing. Question... are superion's legs suppose to slide out so easily? When posing him the legs tend to come off. The yellow spring tabs on Silverbolt at the connection point don't seem to do much of anything
