That's true. I just find this set's super-greebly aesthetics makes the contrast between modes worse. Plane barnacles.

It's criminal how they never bring back Optimus' finger of doom but I can see how such a powerful ability can constrain writing.

So the problem is that it makes other developers look bad?

It could have been three hundred, three hundred thousand or three hundred million years and it wouldn't matter since it was just an excuse to get the Autobots and Decepticons out of the picture. Doubly so since there's time travel involved anyway. The writers could have written it as the...

It’s pretty much the only design choice of note with this thing. It’s otherwise a generic anime girl figurine in cosplay and in a scale that's not popular among the anime figurine crowd. This company’s all over the place it seems. Out of this lineup, just the datsuns have been released, and...

The stock photos show there's some movement there but this is probably as far as they go. The arms look somewhat restricted too. This render doesn't really show how the shoulder armor attaches but the sample makes it look as though they're pinned to the torso and just move up and down. Given...

The best part is the Looney Tunes-esque limp tank cannon. But seriously, there had to be better ways to attach a helmet. Hell, just sculpt it on, nobody wants a bald Bludgeon.

Takara charges more for nearly identical toys. It's not limited to the guardian Robot. I don't know why and I don't agree with it but it's something they regularly do. Nemesis costs $53 more. I dunno, maybe they figured they could get away charging a bit more because exclusivity. I also...

Yeah, Takara does charge a lot but I dunno about comparing unlicensed toys manufactured in China to the official toys manufactured in Vietnam(?). I'd chalk it up to the guardian robot having a market that is a niche of a niche, having gigantic packaging and having to coordinate a new run of...

It works well enough as vague background setting. They could have made it more specific but ultimately, that just wasn't their priority and I mostly agree.

Maybe on a sale or something. $120 is a lot for a novelty but it is indeed a very novel novelty. Cartoon colors misses the point so hard that it would just be wasting money.

I’m mostly surprised they didn’t try to retcon him into the Dinobot somehow. also that the IDW Beast Wars comics weren’t some kind of fever dream.

Jill hasn't changed clothes since Raccoon City. Nasty.

To be fair, anything 3D printed bigger than a couple centimeters turns out jive. Also, PMOP may have the most low-effort character model ever. They couldn't even get the left to match the right. It looks like it may be smoother if you don't go base mode.

I get that it's a way to up the tension but god, is Fatal Frame's overly clunky movement annoying. Makes OG Resident Evil's tank controls look like olympic gymnastics

Aside from the odd choice of using screws and pins to lock transformation stuff (which might end up a problem down the road, IDK), I don't see what's particularly bad about it. Lots of accordion panel folding or maybe the head panel I guess? Not great but it's not horrible.

Dumb decision to sell the trailer alone aside, this looks pretty good. It even has the weirdass grill face from the comics, a decent base mode and some semblance of trailer space. Terrifying-looking ab crunch though.

Why is Cheetor clearly a tiger?
