>>11343473>people's imaginations are so limited that they NEED the MPs to look 1:1 identical to the cartoonThis is quite literally what Takara and others themselves pushed
Masterpiece to me was a great blend of G1 Inspired and Toy style
That's why early ones like Sideswipe, Prowl, Optimus and others worked so well and felt great
Somewhere along the lines they went full tooner and it made stuff look uglier
Beast Wars MP's feel great honestly. They look really close to the show and that's not a bad thing
