>>5813552>why are there action figures based directly on MP-10Because it's become the favored transformer toy after people dropped mp01
>>5813552Well, clearly bandai is bandai and have no one else to work with, hastak needs to work together and if one doesn't like what the other is doing something might drop, hence why hasbro is doing the weirdest licensed shit like those alt modes blind boxes, something you'd expect takara to do (because japanese stereotypes, hoi doi).
But here is another argument about the gundam look, look at it, look at the rx-78-2 from the original series.
Much like transformers, there IS a base to follow, but in transformers due to all the transformations the animation needs to make cuts for sheer aesthetic design, even an mp will NEVER achieve 100% cartoon likeness due to the whole transformation thing which limits them, gundams never have to worry about this and when they do have to transform its usually taken into account with products...
But what makes me laugh is there is no transforming zeta gundam ACTION FIGURE, while the design of the RD unicorn has ALOT of artistic liberties, look at its models, fucked up leg articulation due to how strict they followed the artistic design, and to fix that on the peg they basically allowed it to break its own legs.
And another thing now that you bring it up, WIDE gundam when?
(Before I forget to even that new RD rx-78-2 has had a clean up, it looks better than the animation model, its not crude its clean cut)
