Pros & Cons
Pros
It's big and clunky, and a lot of fun to pose and switch back and forth. It's a good thing it pops right back in without much effort. But, that's today’s cost of goods and shipping and not any fault on the figure.
Legacy skids is the last of the deluxe scale cars to come out in the last few years (not counting mini-bots) this is a step up from the deluxe classes of the last several years of the wfc lines as many bots had few accessories. Good bot, captures that... Read More

Packaging/appearance
He came in a box so his beautiful, ethereal, and gorgeous packaging was shielded from the terrors of damage.
Was shipped in a plain envelope - the transformers product packaging was all smashed in and crushed.
The figure itself survived but hasbro removed the plastic windows from their packaging leaving the figure exposed.
Just got my skids today, and i was very worried after reading the reviews about very bad packaging or lack of.

The main issue for me was that the arms were to to tight for my liking and his blaster peg as well
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
He appeared in nearly every episode in the first 2 seasons and made a tragic and heroic sacrifice by getting killed by the sweeps in the movie

One standout moment was in “auto bop” where after blaster was knocked out by soundwave and tracks was chasing starscream in the skies a missed blast from starscream landed near skids and sent him soaring
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
He landed on rubble flattened his tires and dented his vehicle but was knocked up to the air again and skidded into a decepticon nightclub that blaster and soundwave were fighting in driving into the main sound system and crashed into it with both him and the sound system exploding to pieces
