Title: Definitely a "collector's shelf" toy
Product review: Overhaul is a very nice-looking toy, both as a Humvee-esque vehicle and as a Wolverine-esque robot. Unfortunately that's about all he is. Overhaul is jointed in a way which, while excellent for putting him in dynamic-looking poses for a display, is all but useless when it comes to actual play. (He can't even achieve the "stand perfectly straight with one arm pointed forward and the other down by his side" pose popularized by the nearly immobile early Transformers toys.) His gimmick is weak, too: apply excessive force to his "Cyber Key" in an unsuccessful attempt to get it to stay in the little slot on his back so you don't lose it, and he fires a missile THROUGH HIS OWN CHEST.Overall, an unexpectedly weak toy among the veritable avalanche of awesome that is Transformers: Cybertron. If you have to have all the major show characters, I suggest you wait for Leobreaker.
