>>7854328I kinda feel like PX is looked at a little more favorably than they deserve just because they're the only company really bothering to handle the WfCFoC designs. The look of their figures is top notch so credit where credit is due but every figure from them I have suffers from oversights and I'm not the biggest fan of how their plastic feels. It's ok and better than most Hasbro plastics but it still feels like it lacks density and seems like it could easily snap or stress under the wrong conditions. It can make some of the transformations a little scary with how things need to be moved and some of the transformation joints and pegs/tabs are WAY to fucking tight.
As for oversights, I feel like all of their Dinobots, even Grimlock, are a perfect example. All of them have issues with some tabs not wanting to stay securely (Grimlock's calves are a great example) and all of them have large chucks of kibble that, while its existence isn't a problem, does actually tab or lock anywhere and just hangs loose, Paddles is by far the most egregious example, but Sludge, Slag, and Grimlock all have that problem too. The Sludge/Paddles mold also has probably the worst articulation possible for the weight those legs need to support so neither one of them can pull off much of a pose, despite how good they look at a glance.
I'm not trying to say PX is BAD at what they do (because despite its flaws, their Grimlock is still by far probably the best Grimlock we've ever gotten in that scale) but I notice that people tend to put them on too high of a pedestal and don't really call them out on what they do wrong. They're a company with a lot of potential but they still make a lot of mistakes that keep them from reaching it.
