Transformation looks absolutely fine to me. Then again, I get no value out of a complex transformation. Clever engineering, well that's a different story.

But anyway, he looks much better than I expected too. Love the mould detailing and some of those paint apps (particularly that bronze on the upper leg and the green details).

Double gun thing is cool too, reminds me of all kinds of G1 toys.

I think it is probably worth waiting to see what Takara does for all these generations figs though, just so we can compare the two and pick the best. And I suspect we should see images of Takara's versions before these hit retail.
