    This Hot Spot and combined mode is so much sturdier than the Hasbro Hot Spot and Combined mode my Son's toy is, even when new when I first opened his up I was like...man, I hope the Takara isn't going to be this damn loose and floppy. Glad he isn't.

    He doesn't lean forward at all just as the review said, so that's a damn good improvement. He stands completely upright.

    He looks good as is, but for those who prefer complete symmetry, you may want to use Groove as a leg with Blades, me, I don't like how the hood of the Truck / SUV mode looks stuck up over the knee so I don't want First Aid as a Leg. But, to me, he looks fine in default mode with Groove and Streetwise as Legs.

    I hope that sturdiness stays for the inevitable G2 version. Good to know they fixed it for this release.

    I should add if it's not been noted that the Black paint on Hot Spot is matte and not glossy like on the Hasbro version. That to me looks so much better in my opinion. And the chest shield is molded blue and the black is painted.

    I wonder if someone could digibash the stripes painted onto UW Hotspot/Defensor. Its the one thing I really hate about this set. But the blue is so much nicer than the Hasbro one!

    Couldn't find it on BBTS, but what is the size of the box for this? Have a buddy visiting from China in a month, and may have him pack one if it isn't going to be a pain. Thanks in advance.
