>>7897166>I'm not blindly defending it. I can see that the toy still looks great in both modesYou've been complaining about people criticizing the toy for partsforming in this entire thread. Personally, if I knew it was gonna partsform I'd just use a different transformation scheme or have an assortment of hinges that go over the head and clip to the back at the cost of the bazooka. If the rumors about Selects Runamuck being a repaint of this is true then it's most likely going to cost $25 with a rear chunk that comes off and probably no bazooka; is that deal even worth it? probably fucking not.
>which makes it a pretty acceptable compromise, in my opinion, especially since it's just a backpackThen don't get on everyone elses case over their opinion.
>Yes, we've seen this kind of bot done before, but none of them have the articulation and lack of kibble that this one doesYou're either lying or you're a zoomer who only started collecting at Combiner Wars. Like I said we had figures like Blurr (pic related) who, like the G1 toy required you to remove the front of the vehicle to transform him and everyone still complained in 2008 (during the financial crisis) that Hasbro should have tried to implement something to integrate the hood into the transformation. Keep in mind articulation wise, he had literally everything except a thigh swivel.
