Since the removal of his helicopter blade is essential in forming the car mode, it makes me wonder how Sandstorm will be done, since he is being remolded into an Osprey-like form.

Hasbro did a good job on this. I would have rather seen him as a deluxe though. I still like FP Defender better because he is more G1. Im not going to jump ship like all the Hasbro fanatics. The Hasbro version has better colors and a more cartoon accurate head which is a plus. Im sure I can find a place for this Springer among my various displays.

My mind is blown by how amazing this figure looks. The engineering is just genius, and the aesthetic is so perfect. Seeing him side by side with Blitzwing, you can really tell they were designed by two different people and are on two totally different levels. I do actually like Blitzwing a lot, but Springer could just be up there on the list of best Transformers ever. Love that car mode, so absolutely badass. The helicopter mode is pretty fantastical compared to any real aircraft, but still manages to look really great. And besides, he was never supposed to have an earth mode anyway.
