Can we admit this is the greatest crossover ever made?

Transformer fans have this strange aversion to ball joints which hasn't been valid since the 90's. While early ball joint engineering could leave figures nearly impossible to pose or stand with wear, that changed in the 00's and is especially true in the hands of a collector. Modern universal engineering, while technically more robust, is also more complex and expensive to produce, offers no additional range to movement, and in a world of diminishing budgets actually hinders other areas of the figure's design. I applaud the new A-level Bumblebee and Orion Pax for using ball joints in the shoulders and hips respectively. Design smarter, not harder. We're well past the days of the G2 Cyberjets, after all.
