I just love the Scanning Deco, with the majority of the toy done in transparent plastic and completely painted over. Would have been more expensive to produce, but looks great in vehicle mode... spoils the robot mode though. Looking forward to the Deluxe sized Scanning figures.
Not sure why the guns were added to this set... there is no mention of them on the packaging. There are no pics of them on the packaging, and the toys shown on the back are not remoulds (the hands), so looks like a late addition. But why? It adds a (minor) expense to the set, that wouldn't have been worse off without them.
