He and Dinobot were roughly equal height in the show.

Even if he's not that big, the designers need more than a Deluxe budget to figure out how to make his wings fold away into subspace.

It's a nice set, but just like with BWA, I'm happy to stick with the original Kingdom/Legacy releases.
Same here, as I am happy with what I got. However, I am glad that those that missed out on these can get them again in a cool boxset.

I still use the original BW Inferno in my collection as Inferno. His original toy is so great and meets modern posibility.

Yeah, the only things the Legacy mold has over the original are its use of opaque plastic instead of translucent plastic all over the body, its gorgeously manic-looking robot mode head with an openable mouth, the robot mode arms being hidden away in beast mode to let the front ant legs look more like actual ant legs, and that the middle ant legs can be swung back and up out of the way behind the robot mode torso. The rest of it, however, pales in comparison to the original Beast Wars mold.

I could never get the original's pelvis to stay tabbed together.

Same. And one of the pegs holding the ant abdomen closed immediately broke off. Stupid clear plastic.

My original's ball joints are so worn that he can barely stand, even without the ones that just cracked.
