My first new toy for the year (technically I got him at the end of last year, but I opened him this year) Sunsurge!

And so far 2016 in toys seems to be starting of on a high note as he is pretty awesome. Once again Badcube go higher than their previous release. Quality is MP level, but what I really like is the transformation, it's daunting at first with many steps but their a meticulous attention to details in making sure everything locks together, it becomes richly rewarding (for me anyway). It does have the signature Badcube joints attached to joints, but they are a lot easier than on Wardog. I'm also a huge fan of the way the chest and torso come together, the fake windshield is an understandable turnoff for some, but for me the way he transforms from a very rectangular sport car to a thin sleek robot is like a slice of cartoon morphing magic the same way Badcubes Wardog changes for a huge tank to a smaller MP car size robot.

The back of the robot mode is the weakest link in the toy, and while it doesn't look pretty, everything is compressed and the backpack is no bigger than on MP Sideswipe, it also hides the car windshield pretty well.

Overall highly impressed and would recommend to anyone who wants an unofficial MP Sunstreaker and is not turned of by faking the chest, and a bit of complexity in transformations.
