Yeah, dragon-to-robot transformation is underwhelming, but since he also can come apart and recombine with any number of other figures as either an upgraded version of himself or as armor for other robots, it doesn't really bother me at all. He does enough things OTHER than transform that a crappy transformation is forgivable.

It kinda looks like his dragon head folds back to reveal his robot head, and then his legs extend a little bit, remove the tail to use as a sword, and that's it. Simple, but his appearance is still cool enough.

It kinda reminds me of the simple transformation of Dark Dragon/Drago Draconus from DinoZaurs.

I think the hips also swivel 180. His dragon crotch is different from his robot crotch.

I'm not proud of that last sentence.

I really dig the vague TM2 Megs vibes of that chest design. It's almost a mashup of that and RID Megatron. With, uh, eyes from TM Megatron that make me unable to unsee those gold details on top as eyebrows.

If there were maybe one more articulation bend in the limb bots (their hip joints maybe) you might finagle a chicken-leg for the combined dragon mode, with the clawtoes being the "foot". Of course, no idea how stable that would be.
