>>35134994I think everyone is exaggerating the matter lot.
Blastoise is supposed to be fat, sure, but not fucking obese. I think the torso it has on the Pokken model is close to the best we've had: still bulky as fuck but not inflated. Seriously, have you guys seen how the shell looks when he tucks himself inside? It's still round, but not spherical (turtles aren't fucking balloons).
I think that's the problem with many of Blastoise's iterations: they go too far on the bulky side and he ends looking almost spherical, when he's supposed to have more of an oval shape.
The arms should be thicker and rounder, while the legs got obviously fucked. After seeing how he moves in-game I think it wasn't even necessary to give him long legs: he dashes most of the time and barely uses them anyway.
But I think everyone is too fixated on the flaws of the limbs while ignoring they got right the rest of Blastoise. The head is perfect, the body is again bulky without being ridiculously spherical, and the huge cannons have never looked so good.
There are some flaws, but they got a lot of things right too. I don't understand why everyone is shitting their pants like this.
