    I would buy the other 2 again in a heartbeat if they redid them all three.

    I don't understand the design of this figure. It has two canopies that serve as the robot's legs, but when in 'copter mode, one of these legitimately forms the canopy and the other is poorly (i.e. not at all) hidden beneath the rear of the vehicle. Ok, creative license and all that-- I guess I can pretend that lower canopy isn't there. But then the chest is also painted to look like the canopy, in homage to the original figure that legitimately used it as one. But this one doesn't. So this figure has one legitimate canopy that serves as a leg, a second fake canopy serving as the other leg (symmetry, you know), and a robot chest painted to look like a third canopy. Why didn't they just plan a transformation that used one canopy as one chest, which would be in much better keeping with the original figure that they were obviously emulating? Why the double-fakery?

    I'm torn. This figure looks cool as a robot, at least in a garish-90s-colors kind of way. But I don't respect the transformation at all.

    Have you read Last Stand of the Wreckers? If not, might tip you. He's got the kind of small-but-memorable part in there that you're like, "Well, gotta windmill-slam the add to cart button on this guy."

    I'm not saying the character isn't appealing. My criticisms are for the mold. I think the original G1 figure looks better in both modes than does the WFC one, if you don't consider articulation.
