Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

The instructions for Strongarm, as usual, aren't clear but what's really bad is on mine the arms tend to lean inward. Underbite had the issue everyone else has where you have to push the legs in just so, to get them to stay. I like the transformation on Strongarm but Underbite is the better overall toy. Really don't think we need an Underbite in another size class.

But then doesnt he look too small facing any of the warrior class figures?

And isn't his articulation nearly non existent?
In general, I just look at the 1-Steps and long for more joints and a better set of paint apps and a bigger scale.
I think we NEED a Warrior-class Underbite (and, frankly, pretty much all of the Decepticons seen so far) and, well, Hasbro can't please everyone but this is one of the first times in years that a show has come along where I have been thoroughly enthralled by the aesthetics. Prime offered up some decent options, but very few I felt I had to own (in fact, while not entirely by my design, the only two Prime figures I have are a Cliffjumper and an Insecticon), the last time I felt so captivated by a series aesthetically was Animated and I bought everything I could get my hands on (and I still desperately wish to fill in the gaps in that line).

I'd say Lizard/Bird/Dog/Gorilla.

I saw it as a giant bulldog. Also, its his robot mode, not his animal mode.

Bulldog with a Beak?

Sounds about right.

A robot mode doesn't have to be a bipedal humanoid robot. It's simply a transformer's "true" form, as opposed to their alt mode. Since Underbite's alt mode is the car-thing, his dog mode is his robot mode.
