>>6456393To be fair, I posted something generally negative here when I opened him last week so that might have been me? I'd really like to hear from someone who enjoys him, because maybe I'm being crazy here.
>>6456408It's hard to explain, he's just... mediocre, especially for 40 bucks? I know it's not really a fair comparison, but his articulation and transformation are really similar to the generations/CW seeker mold, to the point where he's basically only got a head balljoint and ankle tilts over the official one. You can kind of give him double knees if you use a transformation joint, but it looks terrible and I'm normally forgiving about that sort of thing. His wings are on balljoints which you'd think would be good for positioning them in robot mode, but they can pretty much only spin around and rotate backwards, no up/down.
His paint looks nice, but it scratches VERY easily. I've already got two on the red of his torso, and like I said, I haven't messed with him much.
You have to use an adapter that literally clips onto his crotch to get him on the stand in vehicle mode. He's got a hole on his back for the included stand, but you can't use a figma or bandai one. It's 5mm though, so you can put weapons on it so I can't really count this against him.
Usually I like iron factory's stuff, but he's not doing it for me. I got their shockwave with him, and I like him more than when I opened him, by contrast.
