I'm fairly certain the tiny stubby orange toes are his cheetah mode feet, and the gray claws are his robot mode feet, and they are flipped around some how. The stubby toes look super weird in robot mode.
It's not, the gray back toes perfectly match the orange front toes. Plus I don't think there's any way to spin that around until you get up to the above knee swivel, but turning it would make his entire lower leg backwards, not just his feet. The tiny bot feet are the right ones.
I do think they screwed up and reversed the forearm transformation. I don't think the mechanical parts are supposed to be exposed in alt mode, surely they're supposed to be covered by the fur panel like in the bot mode pictures. It does make the front legs rather thick for a cheetah, but the art does show furry panels on the side of the legs.
The more I look at that figure the more I wonder how long it'll take Hasbro to retool or engineer share it into Cybertron Leobreaker.

They'd probably just do what they did with AirRazor but in reverse, and somehow just share the engineering in a different mold.
Yes, the arms are clearly not transformed correctly as are the hind legs in beast mode. That's not how cheetah legs bend.
Looking at the other Cheetor we saw, it looks like his robot mode is supposed to have the cheetah claws as his feet. That other Cheetor even goes as far as giving him a second set of cheetah paws for robot mode that hide in the legs.
The dark cheetah claws are supposed to be his Robot feet, not the stubby orange ones.
Looking at the trailer, however, there is no clear shot of Cheetor's feet unfortunately.
With the said, Unlike Airazor which have a similar robot modes and even hawk modes, the 2 Cheetors are very different from each other.
I kind of like the Mainline Cheetor a bit more now.
