>>8806812I'm hoping the pins disappear in the final but all my problems with the design of the joints remain.
>>8806812Both the proto and the painted one have some pretty poorly designed joints. Several could have more movement with fewer parts which would have cost them less to produce AND looked better. Instead we got extremely wonky joints like the shoulders, hips, knees, and feet.
>>8806876The overall form looks pretty good, but its the joints that throw it off for me. Compare it to the Figuarts one. Those shoulders, hands, hips, knees, and feet are integrated into the sculpt much more seamlessly than this Jazwares one. I'm just speculating based on those images but neither one is close to ideal IMO.
I'm worried about Greninja, Blaziken, and Lucario now. Those guys need to be super nimble and posable. If the joints are designed poorly, it'll make a lot of poses hard to hit.
