Things I dislike about it:
-proportions are all wrong. Hurricanes are much wider than they are thick vertically. Should be closer to a disk shape
-it has two eyes
-the eyes are on the side
-the sides look like columns
-you can't tell it's a hurricane without the label

...if you do like it, the toy collection is called Thunderheads:

I know I can't straddle the atmosphere...just a tiny storm in your teacup, girl.

Admittedly the more I look at it, part of me actually kind of likes it.

If I could just get past those weird eyes on the side. :roll:
