To get to my question for anyone else owning Nightbeat or another version of this mold: When I transform him, his robot mode chest protrudes far enough down on his undercarriage that it actually interferes slightly with his clearance, and on a hard, flat surface all four of his wheels won't touch the ground:

This, of course, leads to him being slightly wobbly:
It isn't terrible to the point that it looks bad if you leave it alone and walk away... but still, it feels wrong. I can't have that correct, because I'd like to give Hasbro the benefit of the doubt that, when designing a Transformer that turns into a car, making him so that all four of his wheels touch the ground would be a no brainer!
Yet a careful read on the instructions, something I rarely even would need to do, gave no insight as to what I might have potentially missed. And a watch of a few video reviews also gave no further insights as to if I may have mistransformed him. Yet the reviews I watched also didn't say, "Hey, his chest kind of sticks out underneath in vehicle mode. Bloody Hasbro!"
So... is it me? Am I doing something wrong? Or is the mold actually that badly designed?
