    It would be too easy to say Drift is perfect but I'm going to anyways................nah just kidding however he is almost there.

    Alt mode - Drift is super chunky in the shape of a street racing car, his mode is perhaps a little large but he clips in place super tight making the figure feel quality, all weapons can also be stored in car mode with the large sword on the under carriage and the dagges hidden in the doors.

    Robot mode - I'm a little in love with Drift as a character so take my views with a pinch of salt :)  - his articulation is great with swivel joints in the elbows, wrist and shoulder along with swivel joints in the hip, upper thigh and knees, his feet are static. If drift had a downside it would be that the bonnet kibble and dagger sheaths get in the way during poses however I can live with that, Drift is love!!! :) 

    Also have to give a quick apology for the pic quality and lighting, was sooooo excited to get this guy that I shot through the review - will post up any requests or comparison shots if people send us a PM .

    Awesome review, Red Leader. Can't wait to get this figure. And also I want to see a repaint of Drift as his old self, Decepticon Deadlock. Oh yeah.

    The toy itself is indeed impressive, I especially love that the weapons can be stored in both modes. The character however, I hate. Good show, Red Leader. :thumb

    You can tell whoever made that toy really wanted to make the character fantastic. You can tell a lot of work went into that one.

    He looks good, however his legs look a little "thick" to me honestly. Also his "chest" area looks small porportionatly, IMO of course.
