No film connection.

That'd be fairly cool, though, even if the truck mode sucks... Prime with flared sleeves and bell-bottoms!

No they aren't.

Unspoken rule of any fandom.

If you don't have the OFFICIAL answer, then don't reply. You waste the questioner's time and someone else will have to correct you, also wasting their time. Like my time for instance, right now.

Hybrid Style toys are collector-aimed and are generally super-detailed, super-posable, and extremely fragile. It's a smaller version of a "masterpiece toy", roughly. Part of their charm is cramming as many tiny details as possible into a small toy. They usually contain some elements of diecast and present a detailed design of a famous character, like Convoy here.

And since Nevermore is German and just now discovering the whole "i'm your daddy" cut-down, I'd like to welcome him to the mid to late-1980's. Stay tuned as he discovers "Yo Mama so fat" cut-downs, and "you might be a redneck" comic liners as he ventures onward into the 1990's. Hey Nevermore, you may not know it yet, but that solitary white-guy on "In Living Color" will go on to make two Ace Ventura movies, and develop quite a fruitful career!

So what are your thoughts on this thing?

On the one hand, it's by Takara and has been done without any help from Hasbro, therefore it's automatically pure gold in plastic/diacast form.

On the other hand, it's Geewun based, and anything Geewun sucks.

Tough call, eh? ;)

With some metal, but an equally crap truck mode.

A voice chip by John Travolta would seriously improve this thing...
