    A dwarf the size of a Leader Class figure? Sure, a Nidavellirian Dwarf.

    Mine has one good knee and bad one that doesn?t lock. Annoyingly, they look exactly the same so I can?t tell what?s causing the problem.

    Otherwise, an amazing figure. Fun and great looking in both modes.

    This guy has lightpiping and looks so good, and I miss this simple but effective gimmick so much in figures nowadays.

    Yeah, for shelf-posing the legs don't need to be so stumpy - they extend out to a much more 'natural' length. The knee joint is a little bit of a weak point in the design, but it's really the only part of the figure I can fault - the rest is extremely well done and solid.

    OMG. This is a work of art. Absolutely fantastic.
    Robot mode has so much character and presence. Metallic purple is gorgeous as are the translucent bits in the abdomen. Alt mode is super sleek with no robot bits (I mean, sure you can see all his bits, but its not all kibblely like most TF aircraft).
    My only nit-picks are the fake wheels and lack of molded guns in alt mode.
    Strong contender for my Toy of Year! (Probs wont win tho - he has to beat Sky Lynx).

    Edit: Forgot the biggest problem with this fig - I now have a completely useless deluxe RtS Cyclonus.

    I bought this just before Christmas 2021 and I must say, it's possibly the blandest figure I bought all of last year. It's not bad, but I don't find it particularly fun or interesting. It really quickly went into storage.
    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.
