Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

As for the figure itself, it's mistransformed.
In the picture I've attached, you'll see I've circled a part of the hood near his head/neck assembly.
Pull the windshield from his back, then take those pieces I've circled, and pull them up. (They do pull up, if you look under the hood, you'll see a hinge for them.)
Now, look at his back and you'll see two pegs coming out of the back, lower than the hood section where the windshield was connected. Snap it onto those lower pegs, and his wings and windshield will be lower on the body, and he'll be more accurate to the CGI model.

I know all that, I took the pics from the seibertron galleries as I currently can't upload any of my own.

Snippy response? Check.
For your clarification, the part about it being mistransformed wasn't aimed at you, or Seibertron. The figure's wrong, right out of the packaging. The instructions don't even mention the tabs in the steps or the diagrams. I posted that info in case folks like me (who just found out) haven't heard about this yet.
It was in no way meant to be a smartassed comment to put you on the spot or crack on anyone.
I thought I was just helping out a bit. I'll do my best not to, in the future.

We have a smily for that:
When I read your post it sounded as if you aimed it at me and what was so snippy about my response? I only stated that I knew what you said. I also don't know if the instruction mention that or not as I never used them and just chucked them away like I always do, so I thought it was common knowledge that you have to flip them up and peg the backpack in.

Speaking of and this may have already been discussed, but what's up with that block chunk in Chromia's undercarriage that folds out (attached to the kickstand)? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
