>>6160133>It's an improvement over the original in proportions thoughHaving the knees of the tyrannosaurus showing awkwardly to make the legs longer is not really a good solution nor it does resemble what was on screen.
>I hate that the SoC is going for the same brick proportions instead of making it resemble what was seen on screenBut the proportions of the original toy and SoC are accurate to the transformation sequences from that very same show. You know, because the thing has to actually transform. Good luck trying to make that ridiculously proportioned suit a working transforming toy, let's see how do you store that huge ass robot head without resulting into a Barney-looking tyrannosaurus or how the arms can form the body of the mastodon when the back of the Megazord isn't wide enough for them to rotate and get side to side. Not even the heads on the feet look accurate to how they look when separated into the individual zords, for fucks sake.
It's pretty obvious to me that they look the way they do because they had to take into account the guy that must move inside of the costume, not because they wanted it to look like that in the first place. The actual artbooks are proof of that. I understand people wanting things to be show accurate, but in the case of sentai robots that must transform it makes zero sense.
As someone who owns the original toy for over 22 years and has always seen it as the actual canon proportions, the SoC is a dream come true. Way more badass looking than the suit.
