I mean, come on, you get two cool figures, awesome transformations, awesome posability, cool weapons, hell, the only flaw I can think of, is the FREAKIN' BULLETS KEEP FALLING OUT OF HIS GATTLING GUN!(And that means the other toy has to be the same height as the gun, or you've gotta move Dreadwing to fire the gun properly)

Yeah, I've had one since the Christmas of 1993 (IIRC). I love him, he is so sweet! Never really cared for the tank mode, but he is awesome nonetheless.

I love that figure.

Also, a second flaw, the chest doesn't attach to the body at all.

Smokescreen was a great figure in itself though mines forearms were placed so that the left was on the right and the right on the left.

But yeah, Dreadwing was perfect for standing toe to toe with Laser Prime. One of my favorite G2 figures, he made many a bombing raid on [techno]Zoids bases.

I thought I remembered the missiles popping into place.

I also wish that the missles would have locked into place.

They happened to fix this problem with the later release of the RID Dreadwing / Smokejumper, at the price of the superior projectile strength of the g2 version of course. :/

That would be so freakin' sweet if they could get a missile locking, heavy firing version, i.e. the best of both cannons.

i heard that movie starscream uses the gatling gun method of projectile launching too; i have a weak spot in my heart for gatling guns
