Pros & Cons

Highlights
Quality
Good quality for the price and closely matches the design of the original 1984 character quite well (with some updates of course.
We as collectors value the box as much as the product.
The crane alt mode is loads of fun with the articulated boom that rotates and extends!
Packaging/appearance

The only other issue i had was that the packaging was completely destroyed and seemed as if something was dropped on it.
Competitiveness
It's a hasbro product, so it has their level of quality, which is good as far as these things go.
Grapple's a great toy for the size at the price.
They look awesome at these price points compared to imported figma.

Be warned however the pegs on the back of the legs are too big and need to be sanded down

The biggest issue with this one is that the two pegs in the rear by the crane can break easily as you may hear about in other reviews and sadly you would need to modify the figure yourself to prevent that by grinding dont the pegs and making it smaller in circumference

I didn’t have the g1 counterpart to this figure

It has an ease of transformation that seems to lend itself to stop motion cinematography

The figure seems to kneel as it you manipulate it and then lunge forward as the transformation is completed

What astonished me is that the transformation to crane mode is almost identical to the original model
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
So many of these the new hoist or siege optimus for instance have an overly complicated far too delicate transformation
