Drift is a solid toy, great QC in terms of everything fitting together, tight joints, rolling on all four wheels, quality of plastic, plastic molding and quality of paint applications. Theres no spots which are painfully missing paint decos and the only possible cringe application is the rear window which is metallic sky blue. (I think it looks quite nice compared to pastel blue universe ironhide)

Unless I have a freakishly well finished toy, I think the vietnamese are good at manufacturing transformers!

Designwise I like Drift. His alt mode is nowhere near as bad as I expected, the transformation was adequately satisfying and I was not dissapointed with the robot mode articulation. He is out of scale compared to other car deluxes, but who really wants Drift to stand as tall as tom cruise just so he can blend into a convoy? (don't answer that )

I'm also a sucker for TF's with swords. He has three of them.
