He looks good and grim, clearly a Decepticon. Apart from that, though, I can't find much of a fault with Onslaught.
The gun flipping out from his right forearm and the construction of the legs could be a bit sturdier, the joints tighter. Just about the only thing that bugs me about him is that some of his parts are a little loose. Leaving the G1 comparisons aside, Onslaught is a very posable and highly detailed robot. Still, Onslaught is more or less recognisable as the classic character, so no points deduction for that. The head is the same and both have twin cannon barrels sticking out from their back, but that's pretty much where the similarities end. Look-wise, though, the two aren't all that similar. Universe Onslaught is, of course, a homage to the original G1 Onslaught (who was later recoloured into RID Mega Octane). Robot Mode: Let's get the homage stuff out of the way first. Every variable in a fight is taken into account in his mind, every possibility assessed, and every contingency planned for. When he must get involved in a fight himself, he does so with cold fury, advancing meticulously across the battle field with his fire focused on the most danerous opponent. Nothing gives him joy as much as a well-executed ambush, or the swift, organised destruction of an Autobot base. He prefers to remain on the sidelines of a fight, directing the action and revising his tactics second by second. If Onslaught enters into direct combat, it's only because something has gone wrong with his battle plan.
