LEADFOOT




It's a pity that I'm unable to get my hands on the deluxe sized Leadfoot. This character appeared in the third installation of the Transformers movie, Dark of The Moon.

I did some homework about the background of the vehicle & found that in vehicle mode, this race car is a NASCAR Sprint Cup Chevrolet Impala. The design & decals on the car were specifically associated with Juan Pablo Montoya's car that bears the number #42.





 

Leadfoot falls under the Wreckers category whereby their initial scope of operations are engineering related. Even in Cyberverse mode, you can see that the car has been modified to carry an arsenal of fire power.




A closer look at Leadfoot.




Transformation only takes a few easy steps. As you can see in robot mode,  Leadfoot doesn't really have much depth at the sides. Although this robot looks fat from the front, it is rather slim from the side.




Articulation is limited but one thing cool is that the fists are moveable. Even though the robot is rather flat, somehow the center of gravity is quite low making it easy to pose.
