    It's for the barrel to fold in. You can see on the underside shot of the cheetah mode the gun's barrel is retracted.

    Ah, thus the pin at the base of the barrel. That's so clever!

    Wow @ these pics.

    They even got the smallest details (kibble and a few bits here and there notwithstanding of course) 99.99999% accurate imo.

    Like his weird behind-the-head blue "hood" shape, the way his abdomen is inset a little further back relative to the waist/crotch than you might think (I looked at him in the show repeatedly a while ago, and it's really like that - I was surprised,) the plating around his forearms (not necessary evil kibble, but actually accurate to the show,) his long pointy fingers, etc.

    They are really knocking the BW MPs out of the park so far in terms of accuracy. I'm kind of shocked lol.

    He looks awesome. Other than those knees, his beast mode looks fantastic from the front and that robot mode is perfect (aside from the gold being a bit off, to me, but I'll cope). It's just a pity he's so tall. He looks as tall as Primal. I mean, it's not the end of the world, but I was seriously hoping for some proper scale for the MP BW line.

    True, even with the generations figures being done quite well.

    I'm pretty sure he's at least half a head shorter than Primal. Which is about right when you look at them together in the show.

    based on comparisons with generations rhinox the tip of cheetors crest spikes will be about eye level with optimus primal, which is pretty accurate to the show

    Ye gads, what a gorgeous beast! I can't afford non-G1 MP's right now but I'm seriously tempted to grab up Cheetor before either Primal.

    It's hard to say, but he looks a smidge taller than that. It's not much, but enough to make him looks a fair bit shorter than Primal, which I think losing that smidge will prevent.

    EDIT: I MEANT GAINING THAT SMIDGE!!!

    I'm fairly certain that he's a about whole head shorter. This is the only pic I can find off hand, but if you imagine that Primal's head was raised, he would be nearly a whole head taller.

    In a few days, we'll have more of an idea of the scale TT are using. Not only will we have both toys, but we'll also have Cheetor's bio card, which specifies his height.

    wouldnt being a whole head shorter roughly put the top of cheetors head at the top of primals shoulder? primal doesnt have much of a neck, also cheetor is standing behind primal which can skew perspective making him look a little shorter
