This guy's transformation is great. Going from car to robot, it looks like the legs will become the arms but then don't - a transformation plot twist, if you will. Of course this is lost on people who buy him since he comes packaged in robot mode. But anyway.
I actually don't love the robot mode on this figure. The awesome transformation ends up making his arms a little odd, the sideways elbow joint is distracting and the shoulders are a little too bulky to properly evoke the show model. Plus the head looks unusually small and childlike. The car mode is pretty well done, it has a nice long front end, although the back end is ruined a little by the unnecessary weapon port.
Still, I can see this guy looking awesome with some added paint detail - making a distinction between the head and the chest will definitely help, as well as some more silver and a few hard-edge highlights to help 'toughen' the overall look. Red and yellow plastic at this scale can quite often come off as looking very soft and translucent, and a very light silver edge can help fix that.
