    Meh..
    I have the "Universe Deluxe" version for that.
    For the record the Takara version is a little better.

    Is there some way to detach his shell/wings+backpack? Even if it requires loosening a few screws? If so, I will make this a priority buy now! If not, hm, cool but maybe later :)

    You'd have to take the center portion of the back pack completely apart. A couple of screws hold it together, not sure if there is any glue in there.

    I actually like the IDW thunderwing look because i didnt read the marvel comics :/ cool that idw paid homage to the marvel comics characters tho. If IDW didnt include all these diverse characters in the comics, i may never have known them or even cared about them. But thats mostly because the story and art in IDW is so good that i just want to keep reading

    God I love this figure, definitely has the most dense plastic out of any figure I own. Great piece.

    The light gimmick was a waste. Mine really dont work. Other than that, it's an amazing figure. I think that had Energon Megateon in mind when they made him. I currently have mine in super boss mode on my shelf.

    This is IDW Thunderwing. He also scales properly with nothing except for legends sized figures.

    Though peeps can rock him with and whomever they like : )

    We’re in need of Thunderwing, whether it be a new official or 3p, or a reissue of this. Maybe MMC will finish their’s. They put it on hold because of this figure if I remember correctly.

    He makes Skyfire look like a minibot, when he's in his pretender shell (which is what this figure is based on). Otherwise, the underlying bot is like Skyfire size, I think.
