I really like this mould of classics Hotrod, much better than the original Armada toy! The colours of Dion, like Cyclonus look better in person than they do in pictures.

The Cop-Tur name of the mini-con is a nice throwback to Machinemen.

I think it's a nice 'free' figure, but I wouldn't pay more than a deluxe price for it if I was looking for it otherwise.

I got this guy for free with my TCC subscription. He's.... not too bad. But certainly glad I didn't have to pay any extra for him, and if I had only been able to buy him in the club store I would have bypassed him. Still, a nice shout out to Orions mate from way back when, though a new head sculpt certainly would have helped make this figure more memorable.

I liked it on Robot Chicken when they made fun of the Machine Man with the same name as the Mini-Con you get with Dion "You turn into a Helicopter and your name is Coptur? Lame!"
