Cybertron / Galaxy Force Thundercracker (Part 2)

This week continue with Thundercracker in Robot mode

Robot mode:

Thundercracker is a deluxe size figure and in his robot mode, he looks very lightweight as compared to the bigger size Starscream. The blue parts that you see below the Jet fighter body turns out to be his shoulders, upper thigh and his feet. However, this is not quite the usual full blue body that his G1 is having. 

 

The back of his body is actually the entire Jet body. This is the truly shell-former. 

Front & Back

Headshot:

Thundercracket's head is in blue with his face painted in silver. His eyes is made of translucent orange that lights up if you place a light source behind.

Details:

Thundercracker may be small but his panel linings are very detail. This is especially so on his wings. From the right picture, the orange lining detail indeed looks very striking on the dull grey surface.

Left picture: Thin legs with small feet. Despite that, Thundercracket has no problem standing and posing in various position. Notice the retracted wheels just below his knee area.

Right: Thundercracker does not has a proper left arm but an integrated canon arm. It seems rather weird at first.

Weapons & Articulation: 

Thundercracket doesn't come with any additional weapons since his left arm is already a weapon itself. 

In terms of articulation, he is having some decent set of joints on his limbs to enable him to articulate to various positions. The left arm though is heavy and will cause problems at some positions especially when they are extended out.

Force ignition gimmick:

 

Thundercracker's Cyber key is the Earth Key. The port is located at this left arm.
 

Upon inserting the Cyber Key into the slot. His left arm canon opens up and you can see the missile more clearly inside.

Thundercracker is extending his canon arm and getting himself ready to fire. The missile launches when the blue button is pressed. 

Take this Autobots!!!

Thundercracker teaming up with Skywarp, a direct repaint of Thundercracker.

Both taking the same attack position. 

They work pretty well as a team.
