I got annoyed and just used a part separator to push the tab and split them both apart manually. The gimmick is a nice idea on paper but not very practical with all of the hinges and panels that have to move to properly extend the arm.
Swindle was out trying to find Brawl's personality component when they were writing it up and couldn't be reached. Vortex's notes were mostly just scribbles of violence and maniacal laughing.
Aside from some extra joints (swivels in the wings, the dragon arms are on ball joints instead of swivels, having actual feet), it looks pretty much the same as the original. Which is perfectly fine by me, no need to change what already worked.
I remember finding the original, still sealed in box, in a comic store in Salem, MA for $25 back in the day. It felt surreal to see an imported toy in person without a big markup. I still have him around here somewhere, but I don't know if I'll ever dare to transform him again.
While Quickstrike's love of violence was welcomed among the Combaticons, they all agreed that if they ever hear another "snake in my boot" joke again, they're going to skin him alive.
