This is the second Star Wars Transformers toy based on General Grievous, the first one being Hasbro Star Wars Transformers - General Grievous Mono Wheel Bike. He can go from Starfighter to droid mode and comes with two Lightsabers and a firing projectile weapon.
For anyone who collects Transformers or has at least bought a couple in the Star Wars line, this one comes as something of a disappointment. First, it's not based on a really recognizable ship from the Star Wars universe. Now in general the ships of the prequel trilogy aren't as distinctive as say an X-Wing or TIE Fighter, but some like the Star Wars Transformers Crossovers Republic Gunship got a bit of spotlight and really stand out with their intriguing design. This ship was pretty much background material in Episode III, sitting on the platform where Grievous and Obi-Wan have their final duel (Obi-Wan steals it to escape). It's kind of easy to miss if you aren't paying attention.
The other strike against this toy is that the transformation is pretty standard. Most of the ship is simply a shell from which the arms and legs fold out. The shell then hangs awkwardly on Grievous' back, and even detaches if you pull a little too hard (it easily snaps back on). Bottom line, the best Transformers toys surprise you in how they go from vehicle to robot mode, and there's no real surprises here.
An okay Transformers toy, but there are more interesting ones in the toy line. Get more detail about Transformers Crossovers General Grievous to Grevous Starfighter.
