First time I've enjoyed jogging, but after 2 years and roughly 1000km, the soles are too worn out (but the rest of the shoe is still intact!)

Why don't you make waterproof runners anymore?

Looks great, I photographed the robot mode in front of a bunch of Speed Champions for scale. This is one of the best Lego sets, but it's not perfect. The front window proportions are off, he snaps easily while transforming (I can't believe it's just a rotational swivel without any axel support). I also don't like that the eyes are just a printed piece. I may modify with 2 clear blue tiles.

Also I don't like the silver wheel cover disks; the molded wheel underneath actually looks better, but alas, they're black instead of silver.

Part of the issue is to make this an impressive scale, it's a bit too large to properly support it's own weight. I would've preferred slightly smaller with more stability, but this is still almost perfect.
