I received my M3/Intimidator/Diesel last Monday and I must say that it's an amazing and fun figure to transform; it'll test your metal in transforming transforming-robot toys, but it's definitely no where near as difficult or scary as many have made it out to be.
The instructions DO NOT go far enough into detailing the steps of transformation nor does it appropriately point out the differing tabs that are employed, as this beast makes use of your everyday "friction" tabs, "Hooked" tabs & "Dove-tail" tabs!
In saying that though; if you take your time, pay a careful eye and avoid exerting too much force (As it is entirely un-required) you wont end up being one of the many tales of "Ham-fistedness" that permeates many an international thread on the matter.
I may do a more detailed write up at some point, as I've still yet to do a full photography shoot on this fantastic brute but in the meantime I'll just leave this here...
