    For sure just a mockup so the leg wasn't empty. There's no way they go all out on 4 and then breakdown is just a repaint lol

    A bunch of the details are not the same as the other leg so while they could share some engineering ideas they’re definitely not a repaint.

    I called it from the moment I got Wildrider in hand, I knew Breakdown would be a retool.

    So after doing some comparisons, it looks like they remolded the rear of the vehicle mode to be a pretty spot on recreation of Breakdowns lamborghini with ports in place for a spoiler and all. I've also now realized that the front of Wildriders vehicle mode was tooled to act as both a Lamborghini and Ferrari. The front bumper on Wildrider has the Lambo headlights molded in as well as the hidden headlights for the Ferrari. The front bumper is also there but unpainted. Pretty genius if you ask me. The most you would need if you're really jonesing for that Lamborghini look is some side window stickers and a spoiler kit.

    Hope the robot mode chest has some additional retooling.

    Obviously we'll get a new head and chest. I would guess a new waist and possibly new thighs as well.

    Really hope it’s a prototype they came up with quckily just to show a complete menasor because I’m not really liking how it barely resembles a lambo.

    After staring at it more I can see the vehicle mode differences. That’s definitely it and not some sort of prototype which wouldn’t make any sense if it was anyways. Breakdown gets revealed in 8 days

    Right, because they're probably about as close as their legal team will allow them to get before they have to start paying a car company for the rights.
