    Since this thread was “revived”, if anyone needs a size comparison with a figure let me know. If I have the figure I will try and do it.

    But one I did for the review thread.

    Fair also hard to beat black and gold.
    Ironically it came out when I was too young. But interestly enough he was the only Deluxe and non-activator toy I had from Animated.

    Whats left of it.

    But yeah he came out good also in addition to the head looking better in hand, he doesn’t look as bulky as some photo’s portrayed. The bike is weak but it doesn’t kill it for me. And for G1-ification the best of the Legacy figures.

    A “bit better?” She’s a bike. Prowl is a poorly played game of Tetris on wheels.

    I don’t despise it but yeah it’s not great. Don’t hate it but still not very good.

    It seems to mostly all come down to the waist down area, and how the arms fold.

    He is no replacement for a G1/Earthrise Prowl. I see this guy as an alternate form of Animated Prowl who will look good with those old Animated toys.

    I would call this guy Ricochet if I ever get him for Generations bunch.

    Oh he was definitely isn’t.
    I dig it, and call the actual Ricochet, Stepper (his other name).

    I think it's funny how new Prowl looks like they took old Prowl and put him under a hydraulic press. Just squish him down a bit

    I'm having trouble getting Prowl to stand up in motorcycle mode. Here's a picture of the motorcycle leaning against the edge of my computer. Is there something mistransformed? Thanks.

    From memory (haven’t transformed mine back to alt mode since I got it) I had that problem as well. Best would be to lean it against the kickstand, that’s how it stood the best.

    I also have the issue, and it seems you've done everything right. I think the kickstand is just inefficient.

    My experience is that Prowl's front doesn't always correctly position itself to the point where the wheels are spread enough for the kickstand to work. I managed to get mine to work, but it was a fiddly struggle, TBH.

    That said, am I the only one who looks at Prowl's hourglass figure and think it could pass as a fembot if you swapped the head?

    Speaking to my concept, does anyone know of an appropriate femme-bot with a compatible head? Sadly, Kingdom Arcee uses a smaller ball joint connection and I have little faith in my ability to tweak that connection...
