Obscure reference aside, this toy doesn't really offer anything that Legacy Road Rocket doesn't already deliver. And I think that Road Rocket is much nicer looking toy with a superior name/persona. I guess Hasbro didn't want to call this toy "Autobot Jazz" since they've released Fire Guts Dorito Jazz in the same assortment. :p But "Laser Cycle" is just so lazy. Having said that, in my head canon Laser Cycle is a generic Autobot trooper rather than an individual character. :)
Somewhat recommended if this deco or character interests you, but otherwise it's unlikely to do anything for you that Legacy Arcee, Road Rocket and/or Erial don't already do. She does also look like she's barracking for the Matlidas though. :p
