This usually translated into them havign a slightly larger box mode than standard releases, but most modern releases like Tianma manage to fit in roughly the same size Box Chargers these days), and she's based on the Kirin mold. For those who don't know, a Tianma ("Heavenly Horse') is a winged horse from Chinese mythology, usually covered in scales, that was most likely inspired by the Greek Pegasus. The Kirin mold may not be the most popular (largely due to the complexity of hte transformation - there is a LOT of folding and splitting involved here), but I think she looks incredible and does a very good job of getting horse leg articulation correct (compare her to BB-43 Lava, and the difference is night and day). The pure white, clear blue, and gold highlights are striking, and while the wings look a bit odd (they're based off of the Kirin mold's back fins, though they're a bit longer), her head looks pretty spot-on. She has enough balance that you can even make her rear up, and her little ears can go up and down. Because of how accurately her legs are engineered, she can pull off some very horsey poses, and makes for a better horse toy than most others that I've had in the past. Her Box Charger is also decorated - clear blue, but the front door is painted solid white and has an emblem with her face on it in the middle and two gold bits on the side.
Anyway, those are my top five favorites - I have many more, but it would take all day to talk about them; I hope this helps to at least keep you interested in the line, even if you decided on one that's totally different from any of these - also note that all of the ones I listed have alternate colors/slight retools available, so even if you can't find the exact ones here, you can still get something similar to enjoy.
