I don't it's that far off. The toy just has a more pronounced snout than the CG model has. Let's see if Takara's Adventure version can bring out the cartoon face better without all that silver on Hasbro's RID version.PrymeStriker wrote:Wow. I didn't realize how inaccurate Steeljaw's headsculpt was until I looked at the figure in-package. Not that I was all that excited about him, but it's clear that we've got another Skylynx/Darksteel on our hands.
Gonna need an upgrade kit for that.

I guess Sabrblade. But as someone who had begged their parents for painted transformers in the 1980's I always get them chipped. Where as the colored plastic of the post 1980's transformers look prettier longer.
I currently own 3 one-steppers. AoE Grimlock I bought on a lark because I wanted to see how these things work. Rollbar I got because I drive a Sonic and he is a Sonic. Then I got AoE Prowl because I just love Prowl.william-james88 wrote:Ever since I bought one step heicopter drift, I have looked less down upon these 1 steps. They may be for a younger audience but that doesnt make their engineering any less impressive than other classes. It's just a bit harder to appreciate.
If Seibertron has the time, I would love his thoughts on which he recommends in these. Underbite looks really fun and so far this is the only class in which he appears, so I am definitely tempted.

Strong arm was my least favorite. I really wanted to like under bite but his transformation of squeezing his rear legs together works very poorly and is difficult to stay transformed. Sideswipe uses same flip transformation as AOE drift but I'm kind of over that because it was so inventive the first time around. Which leaves me with bumblebee. He's a good toy for a 1 step but tell me that his robot mode doesn't scream a Rodimus repaint!
