Is it the lighting and paint playing tricks, or is the orange claw translucent plastic? Did we already know this, and how well will that hold up over time if displayed in base mode with the rocket standing up?
As good as any 3P indeed, but I hope an off-brand replacement for those 3 pieces doesn't become necessary. Eagerly awaiting more pics.

1. How is anyone suppose to know any of these questions you’re asking? We are all seeing this for the first time and 2. None of it is necessary. If you don’t want transparent pieces that’s up to you. It’s not like a lot of weight is going to be placed on it.

He has every right to be concerned, translucent plastic tends to be a little weaker than solid colored plastic. We don't need to have seen the figure before now to know this, we can tell from experience with other figures. They were transparent in the CG stock images we saw before, but I'm not sure if people really noticed it at the time. It's definitely something people are going to not like, Bumblevivisector is not alone on this. Personally I'm indifferent, but would have preferred solid orange. I will say the parts do look pretty thick and are probably stronger than, say, a thin windshield.
But man, that rocket is massive! Insert "that's what she said" joke here. It appears to have an opening hatch to stick Micromasters in, you can see Countdown standing on it at the top. I wonder if a portion of it also stores in his legs or something, not just his back?

Okay, so sorry I 1. Posed any sort of general question about one part of this highly anticipated and expensive reveal, and 2. -considered the possibility that this might have already been addressed elsewhere, as I'm not omniscient. Sheesh.
And what, someone mentioned that it DOES come with optional opaque parts? I don't understand your second-to-last sentence.
And for the record, regardless, this looks as awesome as I'd hoped.

Cue a lot of pics of Rescue Bots Chase leaning out of said hatch!

That’s what she said

Definitely looking forward to seeing more of him. I’m wondering how they get the rocket to be that extended.

You have the space and money for that?

So base transformation, is it really as simple as taking the Tank out of the torso and doing the splits, then connecting the track? Not complaining mind you, seems easy though. Wondering where the redt of the rocket goes though.
