This is a total winner. These NEST/post movie figures are the best.

Very cool. It's great to finally see the actual product out of the package. Now, is it just me or does the figure look a tad large for a Scout class figure?
I love the design of this figure. It has an extensive list of articulation features that I would expect on Deluxe class figures, not Scout. Ball jointed neck, double hinge elbows, ball jointed wrists, ball joint hips, joint at the thigh for rotation, hinged knees, and hinged ankles. Having one, two, or a few of those joints on a Scout is common but all of them on a single Scout figure?

Could have been designed as a Deluxe, and downsized to a Scout for assortment variety... much like Universe 2.0 Galvatron was designed as a larger fig, and downsized.

And his transform is rather reminiscent of Deluxe Sideswipe's transform (or Scout Dead End / Nightbeat's) in many ways - the front end becomes the feet, the roof is on his back, his doors become his arms, and the back end becomes his chest...

Not bad at all but i believe that a classic deluxe Sideswipe repaint into Breakdown would be better like they did whit Mirage/Dragstrip in that special edition, perphaps in a near future because they just love repaints and this one is a very good one.

I'm thinking of turning him into Barricade to go with Vyager Prime and delux Ratchet.
