    Pretty nice looking toy and some good articulation. As others have stated, the splitting of the bonnet is pretty strange choice. Like I can kind of understand why it's there, as you can lower the profile of the bumper behind his head when you do it, but you only make a couple of mm difference. Surely if they did something different, like having the windshield fold in a little closer, the bonnet and backpack would've fitted smoother.
    Regardless though, I, like most others it seems just leave it together for a generally nicer look.

    I really like the paint on the weapons, the very subtle purple silver is nice and they look like decently sculpted weapons. and the way the mount on the car makes a reasonable work around for the big acnnons the originals came with.

    Speaking of the car, dang! That is where the love is, I like it a lot. It seems close enough to the Ferarri look, while still looking cartoon-esque and is beautifully 80s. Very nice. Just a shame Breakdown will look almost the same Also, as Kurdt pointed out the Decepticon logo gets a bit lost in the bonnet colour somewhat, a shame, since the Stunticons are so very much bad guys.

    Since I am getting the lot, I will say this guy is worth it, but even without the others, it's a nice car model and a fun Robot.

    He also looks nice cruising around with his black and red buddy Runabout

    I think the added benefit of the weird seemingly pointless hoot split is that you'll be able to have visually distinct Wild Riders/Breakdowns in robot mode with the full set.
    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.
