Weapon: Anti-Thermal Cannon
Am no fan of the character (I only own the classics figure cos a friend got it for me for my birthday some years ago and i am sentimental) or the 'masterpiece' line but that looks pretty decent for Tracks fans. Of course it's hard to tell what amount of quality issues it'll have from just looking at the photos.
I have anxiety, depression and aspergers syndrome so my behaviour can be erratic. I don't mean offense to anyone. Just very picky about my Transformers collecting. You're all cool! :)

Likes: Bayverse, Marvel UK G1, Geoff Senior art, '86 movie (more for style/soundtrack rather than Star Wars plot)
Dislikes: Bumblebee movie (lousy rehashed dumb crud), TFA, G1 cartoon, IDW G1, BW/BM, MP. The entire concept of Autobot Megatron

No kidding. He's supposed to be one of the squatter ones, being no taller than the likes of Prowl and Red Alert (maybe even a smidge shorter than those two).

Looks like his back piece is adjustable no?


The hood popping is a nice reference to Make Tracks.


And the shot of the three together reminds me of this frame:

Case in point. His head stands above those of Sideswipe and Prowl when all three should be of equal height.

Why do I get the feeling that Tracks would be properly squatter had Hasui-san designed him instead of Kobayashi-san. #-o

Look where his right foot is in relation to Sideswipe's feet.
I suggest holding the nerd rage until a photo pops up with all three of them in an even, straight line.

His foot might be forward, but they appear to be standing shoulder to shoulder and Tracks are definitely higher than Sideswipe's.

Also didn't notice before but Raul is pretty tiny! Corvettes aren't very tall cars and he can't even see over the top. I'm not sure he could see over the steering wheel either if he was driving.

I assume Tracks still doesn't come with the front gun that comes with Road Rage.

Well I'm not mad at all. Tracks could come packed with a sack of skunk poop, and I'd still be all over him. :lol:
You're right. It could be a case of forced perspective though.

It's not forced perspective-he is taller, plain and simple. And I'm pretty sure non of us were mad, just stating a fact and then discussing it. :shock:

Dunno if I'd take the skunk poop though, Cobotron :-?

That's RACIST! Raoul is as American as you can get (And the Old Gipper gave them blanket amnesty back in 1984-1985. As for Tracks though, was he and the other Autobots registered with the folks at Area 51?

Now the TFs, Autobots or Decepticons are the REAL illegal Aliens (so is Superman, J'onn J'onzz etc etc)!

Tracks looks amazing! He's a smidge taller than the others, but fit right in with them.
