Re: DX9 Mightron (MP Megatron)- Unboxing the evil tyrant!
Great choice, but then again I'm a bit biased in my opinion - have one coming soon. Hopefully...
Disclaimer: my opinions are solely by own, and in no way are meant to influence / dissuade others from their choices in life, nor do I seek reassurance in my decisions...
But if I were to open my mouth, I'd have to say that I was totally taken aback by all the love Despotron was garnering compared to this fellow over at tfw, which sort of seemed to be the general consensus elsewhere as well. Couldn't understand it. Granted, Despotron's a great intepretation of a Megatron, solid transformation and well built. But porportions/face sculpt(s) are way off the mark (as it compares to geewun of course).
Despotron's face sculpts, one more worse than the other, remind me of those greek theater faces that are intended to express basic human emotions, yet offer zero semblance to the image I have of Megatron in my mind. And of course shoulders/legs are far too bulky.
So back kibble is there, shins, hands all not perfect...but Mightron does indeed offer a compelling transformation himself and reeks of geewunness when posed (isn't that what we're all after?) These issues raised with Mightron, all minor gripes in my mind. So price, face, torso, and overall come-together-ness (if that's even a word) will always trump a clean back and clever transformation. For me at least.
