>>7948261>Done by the original creator of the showThere were two creators, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, often referred to together as "Bryke" for Bryan and Mike. And their involvement basically means fuck all because they were directly involved with the Shyamalan movie, and they were also in direct control of the horrendous shitfire that was Korra. They are to Avatar what Lucas is to star wars: They have interesting ideas and work well when highly edited, but if given complete control reveal themselves as arrogant hacks.

>>7948257Thats hyperbolic. These don't look like happy meal toys. But they do look cheaper than their pretty good articulation suggests and I think it comes down to the details.
Look at their faces for instance. Aang's expression is one of mild chimp-like bewilderment while katara has some kind of duck face and eyes always looking upwards. Zuko is basically blank faced but thats probably the best you could hope for, but his eyes look badly painted even in promo art. Look at Aang's right hand in

>>7948225 Katara's is exactly the same way here too.
Its really too bad because if you actually look at the sculpt of the body and its articulation, it looks great. Double bend knees, thigh cut, good hip mobility, flexing and pivoting ankles, and what looks like good wrist, ok elbow, and ok shoulder articulation. It all looks pretty good and the clothing itself is generally fine. But they needed some figma style interchangeable hands and faces and a few more element pieces.
