Can't tell if Twincast's cassette door is bigger or the same size as before.

Tank mode is better, mostly aside from the overly tall central block but it's disappointing how the Studio Series Leader has a more impressive transformation and robot mode. I get that the Style Gen isn't as beholden to the Sunbow models as Studio Series but I dunno, the chunk and blockiness kind of are odds with the relatively athletic Optimus we got.

It's WILD that the main line was supposedly JUST getting around to this finally. Way to get beaten to the punch.

And what a punch. It's gorgeous. I will only be able to afford whatever mainline version they make, but if it's anything like the Hot Rod situation where the MPG/Studio Series designs are so parallel, that will be awesome. I mean, yeah, who knows how big an if that is, but there doesn't seem to be anything here transformation-wise that isn't doable on a Voyager or even Leader budget.

I do wish they'd colored the tank barrel uniformly. In the G1 colors, this way looks weirdly like a tank barrel with a bandage on it or a duct-taped-on extension (an impression I never got with the G2's purple barrel -- ahem -- with orange sticker). Also, the wackiness of that scope just... sitting on top of the whole thing is as charming as it is janky.

do you think he'll ever learn
The real question.
