Guard is a wonderful homage to the DiaKron toy from the very early 80s, a toy that I had, or maybe it was a KO, have never been sure. Vehicle mode is where Guard shines since the all-black deco blends better with the shoulder bits that stuck out on Earthrise Ironhide. Robot mode is very nice as well, but I feel Ironhide breaks up the color monotony a bit better. Guard is going to appeal to a very small audience but if that includes you, you'll be very happy with the figure.
