That is, by far, the excuse used most often to excuse speeding.

Skybyte "This is the really bad part, isn't it?"
OP "Maybe!!"
Oh, good. I was wondering if anyone would pick up on this being a valid, canonical variation on the theme.
I’m liking Blue Booster better with properly colored shoes. He’s decent but really needed dedicated joints for better dynamic running poses.
This guy… isn’t great. There’s an effort to look like Tails but the plane tail halves don’t evoke the twin tails very well and the kibbly design obfuscates it. Given the propeller chest hurts the resemblance even more, I’d (I can’t believe I’m saying this) prefer if the propeller ended up on his butt. Transformation is decent but the wing assemblies that attach to his shoulders are not pinned or even ball jointed, they’re just two separate parts on small pegs, so they tend to pop off while transforming him. The shoulder assemblies themselves don’t really lock in place and will dislodge when moving his arms. Kind of reeks of running out of budget. Articulation is standard in theory but balance isn’t great due to the big heavy tails and always looks awkward due to the massive kibble. You can prop him up using the tails as a tripod but it’s kind of lame to have to use the focal point of the design just to stand him. Lastly, the upper wings have some kind of paint damage out of the box, which far as I can tell from the symmetric and linear pattern comes from how he was packaged. Kind of a lemon IMO.
Overall the set’s okay and not too expensive but it’s not particularly good overall. Sonic is decent but Tails is overall mediocre.

I can see what they were going for, and why they'd make these so evocative of the characters. Some of the execution is actually kinda clever, and the altmodes are great-looking.
But the compromises and uneven outcomes make me wish they'd just made new characters with their own designs (and maybe included minifigures instead) rather than going the Star Wars Transformers route. It's what's worked better for Collaborative. With the ironic exception of the Mandalorian collab, which turned out looking amazing.

He made the mistake of Googling himself. Death would be a mercy.
Well, he should have known better to Google the words "action figure" rather than "doll".
