The robot mode is definitely ill! think I prefer it over the alt mode, the crane is a bit fugly but it's - Generations Hoist(!) so I could pretty much put up with anything!

I wasn't worried about the size of him (+Trailcutter), as it was already documented among the fandom about the size of the IDW deluxes. Don;t seem to have any of the issues I saw in one video review - Crane not plugging in well enough in alt mode,holding weapon in bot mode. Oh and my #welcometothefamily pic:

I see your army is growing Hoist. It matters not, for you shall perish when we meet on the battlefield!

Seriously though, it's a really nice figure.
Some nice lines on the arms and lower legs and detailing on the crotch, and; if you lift the panel up where his alt mode hazard sticker is (In bot mode) there's some nice detailing underneath there which they didn't have to do and could have easily left flat. I'm so happy with it, ever since the Generations line began I've wanted a "modern" hoist, best I got was the movie tow truck re-painted as Hoist. A modern day Hoist with all the modern day articulation was my biggest wish. Seemed nearer reality when Trailcutter was announced, and deemed definite as soon as the Spotlight Hoist comic was announced.
Some reviews said his colour scheme was much lighter than the original G1 Hoist, but I personally think that was their lighting for recording as mine is pretty consistent. If it was too lighter green, believe me, I'd voice my opinion!
