    If you're talking about the car hood flopping out I think its a G1 tribute thing. I actually wouldn't have minded if they turned it upside down, but once again the muscle car grille just wouldn't look right as the 'toes'.

    I have to say though, the CG mockup of Groove as a leg looks sweet. I find Groove's bot and alt modes reminding me more of Cybertron Lugnutz though (whom I think was roughly inspired off Groove anyway). Colours may change all this

    I just don't like him being bent in half for foot mode.

    Don't look at the other foot then.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.

    i don't mind it for groove as i feel he's supposed to be that way. but i prefer streetwise and in cases where first aid is also a leg, unbent. much like breakdown and wildrider for menasor.

    First 2 are up for preorder. These are coming as individual robots this time. I guess Maketoys realised people don't have $500 to drop all at once.
    I'm pumped!
    Spiderken Away!
