>>9736315So, I'm someone who's bought 2 previous titans, but have absolutely no attachment to the UT.
Like cityformer titans, he has 3 modes. Most recent titans don't. Combiner titans aside, Omega Supreme didn't, Ark didn't. So the question is really, how does he compare to scorponok. He's on par with them in height, and in articulation. In fact, he might be a little MORE articulated than most due to his transformation.
He has more play ability given his two different robot modes (one of which seems to be closer to predaking in height) and from a kid perspective, having a claw/buzzsaw attachment that you can literally take off and use as a toy weapon yourself is a big plus.
Paintjob leaves a LOT to be desired though. While mostly accurate to the source material, it's still so very bland.
He seems very posable.
180 I would say makes sense.
$200 is because they're expecting inflation to get much, much worse. Can't say they're wrong yet, but god I hope they are.
I expect this one to get marked down fairly quickly, but you'll be hard pressed to find it for under 170.
If target does one of there 20% off any one toy coupons though, that'll put it at 160, which I'd say it's definitely worth at that point
