>>11302410The articulation was essentially the same. Super Legends rotated at the wrists, the Action Heroes rotated at the forearms. Same difference. Super Legends rotated at the thighs, Action Heroes rotated at the boots. I'd argue the boot cut was more useful. Everything else was identical.
Overall I'd agree the Super Legends had better body sculpts. The Action Heroes were more stylized, but I don't mind them. They aren't nearly as bad as earlier Bandai lines which were roided to oblivion. If the Playmates line had the proportions of the Super Legends that would be great, but I could live with them being a bit more stylized as long as they don't go too far with it.
The monsters on the otherhand should be as accurate as possible. Hasbro lost a lot of the charm of the orignal monster suits by fucking with the designs. Bandai's Rangers may have been troubled more often than not, but the monsters were always wonderful. Playmates should definitely strive to match the essence of those old monster figures. I'm even cool with them having action features.
