My Sideways is pretty fine as far as paint QC goes. And I don't find the feet a problem. Having difficulty getting his rear wheels right when transforming him back to car though. overall though his biggest flaw is he has to much red plastic in robot mode. other than that I think he's a really good deluxe.

Leader Prime is lovely jubbly. Nice to have a movie accurate toy this time. I like the lanky look over chunky TF1 version. I will have 1in trck mode and ROTF in robot mode for sweetness. Shame about the blades blocking arm movement, but at least they are there!
Haven't had a look at him yet though I did get him, but you hilight my main problem with a number of the old movie toys including old Leader Prime, I like my Movie toys lanky rather than chunky. I think it suits the alien movie style better and defines it from classic G1 style. As such though its a bit splayed to the side I prefer ROTF Starscream to the 1st movies chunky Starscream. I just wish they would redo Ratchet now, he's to blocky for me.

And ofcourse a new Jazz, but that's not gunna happen.
