It would be a lot cooler if those parts combined into some kind of trailer thing in vehicle mode.

Is cyberverse even a good reflection of canon?
I've always considered it on par with Happy Meal toys and about as relevant as Arctic Assault Batman or Stealth Force Superman.
Am I mistaken?
Beast Hunters is coming. Well played Mayans.

..Why would you think that? Legends class figures have always been pretty good, they're just scaled down versions of characters. And the Cyberverse line's entire point is to have all of the characters be at least roughly in scale with one another. (Notable exception is of course Breakdown)
It's a bit of an insult and level of detail to the engineering on most of them to call them "happy meal toys"

That's because it is.

Gotta read the first post.
UK fansite Full Metal Hero have revealed a small render of the figure in robot mode.

He's talking about the canonicity of the Cyberverse toy designs, talking from a fictional standpoint, not a toy standpoint.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

Ahh, my mistake. He's asking about them like...Spy Changers, for example? Nah, it's nothing like that. They're just like the Legends class figures that they've been doing since Cybertron/Galaxy Force. Just scaled down versions of characters that'll fit in your pocket or around your computer monitor.
