Kind of a poor choice of example since the Drive SHFs did have some form of tire change implemented in them.

Not to mention we literally have the Geats stuff right now, which are built around the buckle/power-swapping gimmick. And that's not also mentioning things like SHF Fourze and his Astro Switch parts, Geiz Revive and Woz Ginga Finale, SS OOO and the mix-and-match combo gimmick, SS Den-O's form-swap ability, etc.

SHFs are getting better at putting gimmicks where they're able without compromising sculpt, paint or articulation.
