Sorry to dredge the maggot-infested corpse of this thread from its grave, but I ordered the entire set, and have so far received Streetwise, Blades and Groove (First Aid and Hot Spot are on pre-order ATM).

My thoughts thus far:

Streetwise is pretty much perfect. Awesome articulation, superb plastic, great paint, and a sweet car mode. The transformation is kinda finicky but it's doable.

Groove, likewise, is awesome, and his transformation is actually easier than Streetwise. His backwards leg motion is a tad limited but that aside he's great. Also, he has die-cast metal parts!

Blades is by far and away my favourite...to look at. In hand he's a bit fiddly. His transformation has some seriously scary bits (the copter canopy and inner leg hinges made me wince) and I wouldn't recommend mounting the "scabbard" on his belt as the fit is so tight I wouldn't be surprised if something broke. Fortunately the rotor assembly can be kept on his back. And he's loads of fun in robot mode, slightly limited leg articulation aside. Also, FORWARD/BACKWARD TORSO ARTICULATION. ERMAHGERD.

So yeah. These guys are fantastic. They're kinda hard to transform, but dear god is the end result worth it.
