For sure, especially if he is charging $150.00 an hour as a consultant.

I know the figure itself it pretty solid with few gaps, but if they had extra budget for tooling, it could have been better spent elsewhere.

If Blitzwing punched an Autobot with those, he'd end up with broken fingers!

Good points…
Power fists probably could be cool if done right.
But what are these, “chop hands”??

He’s right up there towards the top of my most wanted list.
The bot mode is really well done, & is enough for me.

Incidentally, do we know of all the leader class figures for Legacy now?
